Stewart Feltz Road, Adopt Reimbursement Resolution and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance Decreasing Appropriations in the 2015-2016 Water and Wastewater Capital Improvement Plan by $400,000.00 for the Sun Country Elevated Tank Rehabilitation Project (COUNCIL DISTRICT 6) RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Authorize execution of a contract in the amount of$1,134,950.00 with Classic Protective Coatings, Inc., for the Sun Country Elevated Storage Tank Rehabilitation Project, located at 5800 W. Stewart Feltz Road; 2. Adopt the attached resolution expressing official intent to reimburse expenditures with proceeds of future debt for costs related to the Sun Country Elevated Storage Tank Rehabilitation Project; and 3. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance amending Ordinance No. 22004-12-2015 by reducing estimated receipts and appropriations approved in the 2015-2016 Water and Wastewater Capital Improvement Plan by $400,000.00 for the Sun Country Elevated Tank Rehabilitation Project. DISCUSSION: The Sun Country Elevated Storage Tank was constructed in 1990. It is a two million gallon, all steel hydro-pillar elevated tank which has never been repainted. This elevated tank provides potable water storage and fire protection for areas in south Fort Worth. The existing coating system is in need of replacement as required to protect the structural steel from corrosion. On February 12, 2015, a Request for Proposals was issued for several Water Department projects, including the Sun Country Elevated Storage Tank Rehabilitation Project. On March 13, 2015, a total of five proposals were received from engineering consultants for the Sun Country Project. A City staff consultant selection committee recommended Tank Industry Consultants, Inc., for the Sun Country Elevated Storage Tank Rehabilitation Project. On August 25, 2015 (Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) C-27432), the City Council authorized execution of an Engineering Agreement with Tank Industry Consultants, Inc., for the design and preparation of contract documents for the recoating and structural repairs of the Sun Country Elevated Storage Tank. The bids came in lower than the estimated $1,600,000.00 for this project, allowing for reduction of the appropriations by $400,000.00. The schedule for project delivery remains the same, with construction starting in August of 2016 and being completed by January of 2017.

To the extent resources other than the ]Logoome: 60SlJN COUNTRY TANK REHAB-CPC (Rcvioc6) Page 2of3 Water and Sewer portfolio are used to provide interim financing, the Water and Sewer Fund will be charged interest that is equivalent to the overall rate of return being earned by the City portfolio (currently approximately one-percent annually). Should the City's portfolio not support the liquidity needed to provide an interim short-term financing source, another funding source will be required, which could mean issuance of securities under the DPN Program or earlier issuance of Water and Sewer revenue bonds than is currently planned. Once debt associated with this project is sold, bond proceeds will be used to reimburse the Water and Sewer portfolio and the City's portfolio in accordance with the attached Reimbursement Resolution. The City Council adopted the Water Department's Fiscal Year 2016-2020 Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan on February 2, 2016 (M&C G-18662). This City Council adopted plan includes this specific project, with funding identified through the DPN Program to be reimbursed with future revenue bonds. In accordance with the provisions of the Financial Management Policy Statements, Staff anticipates presenting revenue-supported debt issuances to the City Council for consideration within the next three years. This debt must be issued within approximately three years to provide reimbursement for these expenses. If that does not occur, the costs will no longer be reimbursable by issuing tax-exempt debt and the funding source will have to be made whole through other budgetary methods. Adoption of this resolution does not obligate the City to sell bonds, but preserves the ability to reimburse the City from tax- exempt bond proceeds. M/WBE OFFICE: A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Water Department and approved by the M/WBE Office, in accordance with the M/WBE or BDE Ordinance, because the purchase of goods or services from source(s) where sub-contracting or supplier opportunities are negligible. This project will have no impact to future Water Department operating budgets and is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 6, Mapsco 430. FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available, as appropriated, in the 2017 Water and Sewer Revenue Bond Capital Project Fund, Sun Country Elevated Storage Tank Rehabilitation Project, for the execution of the contract and that excess appropriation will be reduced by the specified amount.
