RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize execution of Amendment No. 1, in the amount of $5,057,498.00, to an Engineering Agreement with Plummer Associates, Inc. (City
Secretary Contract No. 58487) for design of the Mary's Creek Water Reclamation Facility project for a revised contract amount of
$6,831,196.00 (City Project No. C01239);
2. Adopt the attached resolution expressing official intent to reimburse expenditures with proceeds of future debt for Mary's Creek Water
Reclamation Facility project; and
3. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance adjusting appropriations in the W&S Commercial Paper Fund by increasing appropriations in
the Mary's Creek Water Reclamation Facility project (City Project No. C01239) in the amount of $5,507,608.00 and decreasing
appropriations in the W&S Commercial Paper project (City Project No. UCMLPR) by the same amount to effect a portion of Water's
Contribution to the Fiscal Years 2023-2027 Capital Improvement Program.
DISCUSSION:
On November 8, 2022, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) 22-0892, the City Council authorized the execution of an agreement with
Plummer Associates, Inc. in the amount of $1,773,698.00 (City Secretary Contract No. 58487) to conduct process evaluation and concept design
for the Mary's Creek Water Reclamation Facility (MCWRF). Amendment No. 1 will allow Plummer Associates, Inc. to conduct preliminary design
for the Mary's Creek Water Reclamation Facility for a fee not to exceed $5,057,498.00.
In addition to the contract amount, $450,110.00 is required for project management. This project will have no impact on the Water Department's
operating budget when complete.
This project is anticipated to be included in a future revenue bond issue for the Water & 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. 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. Under federal law,
debt must be issued within approximately three years in order for these expenses to be reimbursable. Adoption of the attached resolution does not
obligate the City to sell bonds, but preserves the ability of the City to reimburse itself from tax-exempt bond proceeds.
