CITY OF LODI COUNCIL COMMUNICATION TM AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Purchase Water Meters from Badger Meter, of Milwaukee, Wisconsin ($145,976) and Appropriating Funds ($145,976) MEETING DATE: November 17, 2021 C-5 PREPARED BY: Public Works Director RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution authorizing City Manager to purchase water meters from Badger Meter, of EI Dorado Hills, in the amount of $145,976 and appropriating funds in the amount of $145,976. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The final phase (Phase 8) of the City's residential water meter program is complete. Considering water meter installations prior to 2011, a total of approximately 17,000 meters have been installed with the vast majority being 3/4 -inch or 1 -inch meters for residential purposes. As new houses are constructed, additional water meters are needed for installation on the new water services. Currently, there is an estimated 600 remaining lots that will require a new water meter through FY 2022-23. These developments include portions of Vineyard Terrace, Gateway North, Gateway South and Rose Gate 2 subdivisions. In 2007, Council adopted Resolution No. 2007-242 authorizing the specific use of Hersey, Sensus, or Badger meters. All three types of meters have been utilized. Hersey meters were used in some developments prior to 2012 and have effectually been replaced by Sensus and Badger due to performance and availability. Staff solicited quotes from Aqua -Metric and Badger Meter, both Sole Source vendors for Sensus Meters and Badger Meters respectively. Badger Meter was the low bidder. In order to maintain an adequate inventory and fill new service order requests, Staff is requesting Council approve a purchase of 600 1 - inch meters. Staff recommends adopting a resolution authorizing the City Manager to purchase 600 water meters from Badger Meter, of Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the amount of $145,976, and appropriating funds in the amount of $145,976. FISCAL IMPACT: Water meters are critical to accurate customer billing and maintaining utility revenues. The cost of the new water meter is paid by the developer when service is started for a new home. This purchase does not impact the General Fund.
