Lewisville council approves road preservation contracts and redirects community-center funds to Great Wagon Road improvements
Summary
The Town of Lewisville unanimously approved contracts for fall crack sealing and roundabout engineering, and moved leftover funds from two completed capital projects into the Great Wagon Road Improvements fund to pay for water, sewer and street work.
The Town of Lewisville council voted unanimously to award a fall roadway crack-sealing contract and to hire engineering services for a new roundabout, and approved transfers of remaining capital-project funds into the Great Wagon Road Improvements Capital Project Fund.
Staff recommended awarding the crack-sealing contract to American Spray Tech of Poff Town for $81,653 as part of the town’s pavement preservation program. John, speaking for staff, said, "The project price is $81,653," and described the work as treating several groups of streets scattered throughout town, representing roughly 3–4 miles of roadway in active preservation work. Council approved the resolution 2025-041 by voice vote.
Council also approved resolution 2025-043 to contract with Volkert Inc. for construction engineering and inspection services for a roundabout at Lewisville Vienna Road and Robin Hood Road. Pam, presenting the item, told the council the contract amount is "not to exceed an amount of $358,217.24." The contract was selected through a qualifications-based selection process required by state law; council approved the contract unanimously.
To free funding for the Great Wagon Road project — which will include water and sewer line construction and street improvements — the council voted to close the Mary Alice Warren Community Center capital project fund and transfer the remaining balance. Pam reported "the balance in the fund right now is $2,259,082," to be moved into the Great Wagon Road Improvements Capital Project Fund. Council also approved closing the Jack Warren Park Improvements fund and transferring its remaining $354,575 plus accrued earnings into the same Great Wagon Road fund.
All three measures passed on unanimous votes. Staff said the Great Wagon Road improvements will use those funds toward utility extensions and associated street work; specific project schedules and contracts will return to council in later packets.
The council’s actions are part of an ongoing capital program that uses Powell Bill and other town funds for preventive street maintenance and targeted infrastructure investments. Councilors framed the approvals as routine capital stewardship during the meeting and said they expect future project-level details to be discussed at upcoming briefings and regular meetings.
