AGENDA TITLE: Approve Plans and Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids for Water
Meter Program Phase 4
MEETING DATE: December 18, 2013
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve plans and specifications and authorize advertisement for
bids for Water Meter Program Phase 4.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At the May 2, 2007 City Council meeting, the Water Meter Retrofit
Policy was adopted. The primary objectives of the Water Meter
Retrofit Policy were to accelerate the installation of residential water
meters and shorten the time period during which customers would be paying for water on flat rate versus
on usage base.
At the October 20, 2010 City Council meeting, a seven-year construction phasing was approved and the
property owner meter payment was capped at $300 per parcel. The first of seven construction projects
was awarded by Council in March 2011 and included the installation of 3,698 meters and the
replacement of 4,220 feet of water main. The second construction project was awarded in March 2012
and included the installation of 2,111 meters and the replacement of 26,350 feet (five miles) of water
main. The third construction project was awarded in March 2013 and included the installation of
1,465 meters and the replacement of 20,310 feet (3.8 miles) of water main.
The project area for Phase 4 is presented in Exhibit A and includes the installation of 1,334 meters and
the replacement of approximately 24,000 feet (4.5 miles) of water main. The estimated construction cost
of $5.606 million (including the cost of the water meter assemblies, construction administration,
inspection and contingencies) is in line with previous estimates. Construction is expected to begin in
April and conclude in November 2014.
Plans and specifications for the project are on file in the Public Works Department. The planned bid
opening date is February 6, 2014.
FISCAL IMPACT: Water main leak and service repairs will be reduced. No additional costs
will be incurred for reading of the meters as they are automatically read
concurrent with the reading of the electric meters.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding will be identified at project award.
