Sycamore Creek Drainage Basin.
Lockwood Andrews & Newnam, Inc., proposes to provide all the necessary design services for the
Sycamore Creek Sanitary Sewer Relief Interceptor, Phase 3 for a fee of$897,816.00. Staff considers the
proposed fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed.
In addition to the contract amount, $612,200.00 is required for project management, utility coordination and
real property acquisition.
Engineering for the Sycamore Creek Sanitary Sewer Relief Interceptor, Phase 3 project is one component
of the overall project that includes project management, real property/easement acquisition, utility
coordination, material testing, inspection, construction and contingencies. Design is expected to start in
June 2019 and be completed by December 2020. Construction is anticipated to commence in April 2021
and be completed by December 2022. This project is part of the Water Department's Sanitary Sewer

6/&2019 M&C-Council Agenda
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.
This project will have no impact on the Water Department's operating budget.
M/WBE OFFICE: Lockwood Andrews & Newnam, Inc., is in compliance with City's BDE Ordinance by
committing to 15 percent SBE participation. The City's SBE goal on this project is 10 percent.
The project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 8.
