On November 17, 2015, the City Council approved the construction of a booster pump station to provide service to portions of the Walsh Ranch and Morningstar developments. This Mayor and Council Communication provides for the construction of a 16/24 -inch water transmission main to connect the pump station to a proposed elevated storage tank for improved levels of service.

On December 13, 2018 the following bids were received: IDDER Mountain Cascade of Texas, LLC MOUNT [TIME 9F COMPLETION $2,972,194.00 F365 Calendar Days Logname: 60WSIDEVP2WMAIN-M0UNTAINC Page 1 of 3 ;Jackson Construction, Ltd 4$3,296,623.25 3Condie Construction Company $3,352,198.70 Venus Construction Company $3,398,593.60 IArk Construction Services _ r $3,672,721.00 In addition to the contract cost, $307,278.00 is required for Project Management, inspection and material testing and $148,610.00 is provided for project contingency. 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 Callable Commercial Paper Program (CP) 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 CP 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 2018-2022 Five Year Capital Improvement Plan on September 26, 2017. This City Council adopted plan includes this specific project, with funding identified through the CP program to be reimbursed with future revenue bonds. In accordance with the provisions of the Financial Management Policy Statement, 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 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. Construction is anticipated to commence in March, 2019 and be completed by March, 2020. This project will have no impact on the Water Department's Operating Budget when complete. M/WBE OFFICE: Mountain Cascade of Texas, LLC, is in compliance with the City's BDE Ordinance by committing to seven percent MBE participation on this project. The City's MBE goal on this project is five percent. The project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 3 and the City's Extra Territorial Jurisdiction. 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 Water & Sewer Commercial Paper Fund for the Westside V Part 2, 16/24 -inch Water Main Project.
