DISCUSSION: This Mayor and Council Communication provides for the construction of the North Holly Water Treatment Plant Sedimentation Basin Sludge Removal System Replacement project. On November 7, 2017, (M&C C-28464), the City Council authorized an engineering agreement in the amount of $688,037.00 with Alan Plummer Associates, Inc., for the North Holly Water Treatment Plant Sedimentation Basin Sludge Removal System Replacement.

Amendment No. 3 will allow Alan Plummer Associates, Inc., (APAI) to provide inspection services during Logname: 60NHWTPSBSR-BARCON Page 1 of 3 construction of the project. Staff considers the proposed fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed. Construction of the project was advertised for bid on January 3, 2019 and January 10, 2019 in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram. On February 14, 2019 the following bids were received: AMOUNT Bar Constructors, Inc. j $7,528,000.00 Felix Construction Company $9,675,297.00 �_ TIME OF COMPLETION � 365 Calendar Days In addition to the contract cost, $160,077.00 is required for Project Management, City inspection and material testing and $225,840.00 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 May, 2019 and be completed by May, 2020. MWBE OFFICE: Bar Constructors, Inc., is in compliance with the City's BDE Ordinance by committing to 6 percent MBE participation on this project. The City's MBE goal on this project is 5 percent. Additionally, Bar Constructors, Inc., is a certified MWBE firm. APAI: A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Department and approved by the MWBE Office, in accordance with the MWBE or BDE Ordinance, because the purchase of goods or services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible. The project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 9.
