The Transportation&Public Works Department will pave all affected roadways after the completion of this project. On March 23,2004(M&C C-20006)the City Council authorized an engineering agreement in the amount of$740,698.02 with RJN Group,Inc.for Mains 34, 100, D100 Drainage Area Sanitary Sewer System Evaluation Study and Improvements.The agreement was subsequently revised by Amendment No. 1 in the amount of$18,600.00 administratively authorized March 6,2015,and Amendment No.2 in the amount of$129,940.00 authorized August 14,2018(M&C C-28795). Amendment No.3 will provide inspection assistance during construction.Staff considers the proposed fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed. 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 2.3%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 Water and Sewer revenue bonds earlier 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 approved the Water Department's Fiscal Year 2020-2024 Five Year Capital Improvement Plan on September 17,2019.This approved plan includes this specific project,with funding identified through the CIP 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.

MM/BE:William J.Schultz, Inc.,dba Circle C Construction Company is in compliance with the City's BDE Ordinance by committing to zero percent MBE participation and documenting good faith effort.William J.Schultz,Inc.dba Circle C Construction Company identified several subcontracting and supplier opportunities. However,the firms contacted in the areas identified did not respond or did not submit the lowest bids. The City's MBE goal on this project is eight percent. RJN Group, Inc.: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 Ordinance,because the purchase of goods and services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible. The project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 9.
