Adopt the attached Appropriation Ordinance increasing appropriations in the Water and Sewer Commercial Paper Fund in amount of $3,028,892.00; and 3. Authorize the execution of a contract with Landmark Structures I, L.P., in the amount of $2,752,000.00 for the Westside V Part 1 One Million Gallon Elevated Water Storage Tank Project, located in west Fort Worth and the City's Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (City Project No. 100378) DISCUSSION: Growth within west Fort Worth and its Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) requires the installation of pump stations, water storage facilities and transmission mains in order to provide reliable water service to existing and proposed developments and as required for compliance with state regulatory requirements related to public water system design and operations. 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 one million gallon elevated water storage tank which will be connected to the existing pump station for improved levels of service. Construction of the project was advertised for bid on November 15, 2018 and November 22, 2018 in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram. On December 20, 2018 the following bids were received: BIDDER 1AMOUNT iTIME OF COMPLETION (Landmark Structures1 LP 1$2,752,000.00 465 Calendar Days Logname: 60WSIDEVPIESTANK-LSTRUCTURESI Page 1 of 3 Phoenix Fabricators and Erectors, Inc. 1$2,933,560.00 lCaldwell Tanks, Inc. $3,247,000.00 In addition to the contract cost, $194,332.00 is required for Project Management, inspection and material testing and $82,560.00 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 w11I 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 April, 2019 and be completed by April, 2020. This project will have no impact on the Water Department's Operating Budget when complete. M/WBE OFFICE: Landmark Structures I, L.P., is in compliance with the City's BDE Ordinance by committing to five 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.
