RFP_Water Meter Change Out Project
T®: The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members FRONT: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager SUBJECT: Request for Proposal for Water Meter Change Out Project DATE: September 29, 2009 Water Department Manager Bob Green and Finance Director Ken TeKippe recommend City Council approval to release the Request for Proposal for the Water Meter Change Out Project. I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council approval. ~ , ~v e~ ~~~ .vim. w.._... Michael C. Van Milligen MCVM:jh Attachment cc: Barry Lindahl, City Attorney Cindy Steinhauser, Assistant City Manager Bob Green, Water Department Manager Ken TeKippe, Finance Director FROM: Bob Green, Water Department Manager Ken TeKippe, Finance Director ~~~° ~~ SUBJECT: Request for Proposal (RFP) for Water Meter Change Out Project DATE: September 29, 2009 13P-C KC FZOU N D The enclosed RFP details information required for the Water Meter Change Out Project. HDR Engineering has been retained to assist the City in preparing the RFP. The RFP is developed to allow one bid which will include all associated project costs: meters, meter reading equipment, installation etc. DISCUSSION The last major water meter change out project in the City of Dubuque began in the late 70's and was completed in the early 80's. Replacement parts are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain for existing meters. In addition, meter technology is changing so rapidly that our existing meters are becoming obsolete. Retrofitting of our current meters is not desirable. Operating costs will be positively impacted by the installation of a fixed radio network meter system. The outsourced monthly meter reading will be phased out (currently $142,000 annually). Accountability will be improved with the fixed radio system due to meter reads in the office versus in the field and with near real time meter reading capabilities. Repair costs should dramatically decrease and accurate revenue fees be collected compared to what the City currently experiences. In addition, providing citizens with accurate meter reading will encourage responsible use of water resources. Installation of an Unmetered Flow Reducer (UFR) provided by A.Y. McDonald Mfg. Co in Dubuque is part of the project for residential meters. The RFP has been provided to several city staff for input and review. The group includes: Chris Kohlmann and Joe Pregler from Information Services, Bob Green and Mike Brekke from Water Department, Jenny Larson and Rick Till from Budget, Nikki Breitsprecker from GIS, Jean Nachtman, Rose Hoerner, Lisa Demmer and Ken TeKippe from Finance. CMM LATIN The next phase of the $9 million project involves the City receiving proposals from firms to provide and install meters (approximately 22,000). The request to receive proposals is time sensitive since the City is to receive stimulus funds. The $9 million project funding is from an $8 million State Revolving Fund Loan and a $1 million forgivable loan. ~4CTION STIEP We are requesting your approval to release the RFP. Funding for this project is part of FY'10 and FY'11 CIP budgets. We are available to discuss the RFP at your convenience.
