DISCUSSION: The February 2021 Deep Freeze caused power failures to Eagle Mountain Water Treatment Plant(EMWTP),the Westside Water Treatment Plant (WSWTP)and affected the North and South Holly Water Treatment Plants,along with power supply and freezing issues at some pump stations.In response to the power outages,the Water Department implemented a series of projects to minimize the effects of future power failures and/or freezing temperatures on Water Facilities. In addition,during the 2021 legislative session,the State of Texas enacted a law,Senate Bill 3(SB3), requiring the submittal of an Emergency Preparedness Plan by March 1,2022, The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C)is to authorize execution of a contract with C.F. McDonald Electric, Inc.in the amount of$19,373,469.00 for the Westside Water Treatment Plant Generators and Emergency Preparation Plan for Power Generation at the North and South Holly Water Treatment Plants project(City Project No. 103410).This project,Part 3, provides for the installation of emergency back-up power consisting of generators and electrical switchgear at the North and South Holly Water Treatment Plants. The project was advertised for bid on July 27 and August 3,2023,in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.On October 19,2023,the following bids were received: ----------------- Total Alternate Total Alternate Bidder Bid A* Bid B Contract Time C.F McDonald 1,090 Electric,Inc. $19,373,469.00$19,373,469.00 Calendar Days Alterman Group,Inc. $20,460,844.00$20,294,744.00� Facility Solutions $21,432,480.00$21,342,480.00� Group ACME Electric $24,523,067.79 Company �1 *Staff recommends award of contract for Total Alternate Bid A which includes all project components in one cost.

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 he 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.
