SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of an Engineering Agreement with Kleinfelder, Inc., in the Amount of $150,840.00 for
Engineering Services for the Repair and Repainting of the One Million Gallon Calmont Elevated Storage
Tank, Adopt Approriation Ordinance and Reimbursement Resolution (COUNCIL DISTRICT 3)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt the attached resolution expressing official Intent to Reimburse expenditures with proceeds of
future debt for the repainting of the Repair and Repainting of the one million gallon Calmont Elevated
Storage Tank;
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
Water and Sewer DPN Fund in the amount of $225,840.00; and
3. Authorize execution of an Engineering Agreement with Kleinfelder, Inc., in Amount of $150,840.00, for
Engineering Services Required for Repair and Repainting of one million gallon Calmont Elevated Storage
Tank.
DISCUSSION:
The Calmont Elevated Tank, located at 6600 Calmont Avenue, was built in 1948 and last repainted in
1999. The existing coating system has reached the end of its useful life and needs to be removed and
replaced.
In February 2017, a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) was issued for several Water Department Projects
including the Potable Water Storage Tank Rehabilitation Project. In March 2017 a total of six proposals
were received from engineering consultants for the tank rehabilitation project. A Staff selection committee
recommended Kleinfelder, Inc., for the Repair and Repainting of the one million gallon Calmont
Elevated Storage Tank Repaint and Rehabilitation Project.
This project is anticipated to be included in a future revenue bond issue for the Water and Sewer
Fund. Available cash within the Water and Sewer portfolio and the City's portfolio along with the
appropriation authority authorized under the Direct Purchase Note (DPN) Program will be used to provide
interim financing for this project until debt is issued. To the extent resources other than the 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 Mayor and Council Communication (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.
The Engineering Agreement being approved is only a portion of the project that includes project
management, inspection, contingencies and construction cost with an overall budget for this project of
$1,225,840.00.
Engineering services is anticipated to commence in August 2017 and be complete by January 2018, with
construction starting in March 2018 to be complete by June 2018.
In addition to the Engineering Agreement funding, $75,000.00 is needed for inspection, project
management and project contingencies. This project will have no impact on the Water Department's
operating budget when complete.
M/WBE OFFICE — Kleinfelder, Inc., is in compliance with the City's BDE Ordinance by committing to nine
percent SBE participation. The City's goal on this project is nine percent.
This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 3.
