BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Electric Utility (EU) maintains approximately 131 miles of overhead electric lines and 122 miles of underground cable to provide service to over 26,000 customers. As the underground system ages, repairs and replacements are necessary to mitigate outages and improve electric service reliability for its customers. EU endeavors to utilize the least intrusive and most economically feasible approach to install conduit for replacement and upgrade of failed or failing underground cables. This requires the use of directional drilling to minimize disturbances to the community, replacement of sidewalk, gutter or road surfaces while expediting the conduit installation process. On February 5, 2014, Council awarded the lowest responsive bid to Westech Industries, Inc. of Galt, for directional drilling and authorized the City Manager to execute a contract which allowed three one-year extensions; two were authorized by the Council on February 18, 2015 and July 20, 2016. All authorized funds have been expended ($1 million to date,) and the contract is set to expire on August 25, 2017. During the current fiscal year, Westech has completed many projects to support the EU capital improvement plan; these projects include installing underground infrastructure, installing, replacing and repairing damaged conduits, pull -boxes and other related appurtenances as well as emergency substructure repairs to restore electric service. Westech continues to perform satisfactorily; therefore, staff is recommending an amendment to add $300,000 in additional funding for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2016/17 while concurrently executing the third contract extension in an amount not to exceed $700,000 for Fiscal Year 2017/18, which concludes June 30, 2018. The additional funding will be used to address emergency -unplanned work as well as continuing to replace 1960's vintage underground cable that is far in excess of its planned 30 — 40 year useful life, and other related projects as determined by failure or predicative analysis. FISCAL IMPACT: Total not to exceed $1,000,000 as follows: FY2016/17 $300,000 FY2017/18 $700,000 APPROVED: uer, City Manager Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Execute Amendment No. 1 for Directional Drilling, Excavation, and Conduit Installation with Westech Industries, Inc., of Galt ($1,000,000) April 5, 2017 Page 2 FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding is available in FY2016/17 Capital Budget Account No. 50199000 and included in proposed FY2017/18 Capital Budget Account No. 50199000. ,Of,�l1 /1;d Susan Bjork i J Supervising'Budge Analyst l PREPARED BY: Charles J.
