RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the execution of a design procurement agreement with HPC Wellington Nance Development Corporation and 170 Northstar Ranch
Developer, Inc., with City participation in the amount not to exceed $431,432.24 for the engineering design and land acquisition for extending
the public sanitary sewer main M-584 located in the Big Fossil Creek basin; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance adjusting estimated receipts and appropriations in the Water and Sewer Bond 2020A Fund, in
the amount of $466,889.00, by decreasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Unspecified project (City Project No. UNSPEC) and
increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Community Facilities Agreement Bucket programmable project (City Project
No.P00001) by the same amount, for the purpose of funding the Design Procurement Agreement — Wellington Offsite Sewer project (City
Project No.103521).
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is for the City to participate with HPC Wellington Nance Development Corporation,
(HPC) and 170 Northstar Ranch Developer, Inc. (Northstar), in the engineering design cost for extension of offsite sanitary sewer M-584 which will
provide service in the Big Fossil Creek basin. The project will serve HPC's Wellington and Nance developments located west of Highway 287 and
north of Bonds Ranch Rd. Northstar is participating in the project to extend the sewer main from the Wellington and Nance developments to
Northstar Ranch. The City is participating in the project to oversize the sewer main to provide additional capacity for future growth within the basin.
The cost for the project is estimated to be allocated at 31.3% for HPC, 9.0% for Northstar, and 59.7% for the City.
The estimated fee for the City's portion of the engineering design, topographic survey, easement document preparation, construction documents,
and public bidding is $280,888.50. HPC will dedicate easements for the sewer main within the Wellington and Nance tracts at no cost to the City
or Northstar. The City, HPC, and Northstar will each participate in the cost for other easements necessary for the sewer main in accordance with
the estimated participation percentages.
The table shows the cost sharing breakdown for engineering design cost between all parties.
