LOG NAME: 602017 EQ BUDGET ADJ
SUBJECT:
Adopt Appropriation Ordinance for the Purchase of Vehicles, Capital Equipment and Facility Repair and
Replacement in the Amount of $3,613,181.00 for the Water Department (ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated
receipts and appropriations in the Water Capital Projects Fund in the amount of $3,613,181.00, from
available funds, for the purpose of purchasing vehicles, capital equipment and facility repair and
replacement needs.
DISCUSSION:
The Water Department serves more than 1.2 million people across Fort Worth and 30 surrounding cities.
The Utility maintains many large and expensive capital assets in its five water treatment plants, one water
reclamation facility, three raw water pump stations, seven high service pump stations, 21 booster pump
stations and 31 lift stations in the system. As these facilities and pieces of equipment age, they become
more expensive to repair. Some of these assets cannot be repaired any longer or are obsolete.
The Water Department's adopted Fiscal Year 2017 operating budget included funds budgeted for transfer
to Pay-As-You-Go capital. As capital projects and outlays are identified, the Water Department brings
forward Mayor and Council Communications (M&Cs) to appropriate the transferred dollars in the capital
fund. The funds are to purchase replacement pumps, motors, cone valves, actuators, turntables, sludge
pumps and other capital equipment for the five water treatment plants, the water reclamation facility, and
several pump stations and lift stations across the City in line with the Five Year Capital Improvement
Plan. The purchase aiso includes one replacements and 11 additional vehicles and facility maintenance
funds for HVAC and roof replacements at several facilities. This M&C will provide the funding for these
purchases in the appropriate capital fund.
This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the
attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current capital budget, as appropriated, of
the Water Capital Projects Fund. The Fiscal Year 2017 Water Operating Fund Budget includes
appropriations of $21,060,000.00 for the purpose of providing Pay-As-You-Go funding for Water Capital
Projects. After this transfer for Fiscal Year 2017, the balance will be $2,543,279.00. The Fiscal Year 2017
Water Operating Budget includes appropriations of $31,636,073.00 for the purpose of providing Pay-As-
You-Go funding for Sewer Capital Projects. After this transfer for Fiscal Year 2017, the balance will be
$4,288,477.00.
