For Agenda of: 5/16/2023
Placement: Consent
Estimated Time: N/A
FROM: Matt Horn, Public Works Director
Prepared By: Anthony Ramos, Engineer III
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE RESERVOIR NO. 2 COVER
REPLACEMENT, SPECIFICATION 2000034-2
RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve the project plans and specifications for Reservoir No. 2 Cover Replacement,
Specification Number 2000034-2; and
2. Authorize staff to advertise for bids; and
3. Authorize the City Manager to award the construction contract fo r the lowest
responsible bid if within the Publicly Disclosed Funding Limit of $2,500,000; and,
4. Authorize the City Engineer to approve Contract Change Orders up to the available
project budget.
POLICY CONTEXT
The project directly supports the City’s Major City Goal of Climate Action, Open Space
and Sustainable Transportation by ensuring a safe and reliable supply of drinking water
and fire suppression water while minimizing the use of disinfection chemicals.
On May 17, 2022, Council approved a Purchasing Policy Update that requires Council
approval for Public Projects with a value of $200,000 or more.
DISCUSSION
Background
Reservoir 2 is the City’s largest treated water storage reservoir with a capacity of
approximately 7.50 million gallons and provides supply for both drinking and firefighting
uses. The reinforced concrete reservoir has been in operation since its original
construction in the early 1940s. The reservoir has two separate basins that include a
floating cover and plastic liner for each basin designed to protect the water from
contamination and vandalism, as well as to reduce evaporation from the reservoir.
Page 655 of 1165
Item 6h
The cover was last replaced in 1987, and has reached the end of its service life, requiring
additional maintenance and disinfection chemicals to continue use of the reservoir . A
capital improvement project is currently ongoing to relocate Reservoir 2 , but the project
is in the preliminary stages and staff anticipates it to be ten to fifteen years until the new
Reservoir is online. With the timeline of the new Reservoir 2 project uncertain, staff
recommend replacement of the cover and liner to keep the existing reservoir in service
until the new project is complete. When the new reservoir is complete, the existing
Reservoir 2 could serve other uses. A structural evaluation of the Reservoir will take place
as part of this project to help determine future uses.
To assist in determining the condition of the existing liner, a diving inspection was
completed in November of 2022. No significant damage was noted during the inspection;
however, due to the opportunity provided with replacing the cover along with the age of
the existing liner, both the floating cover and liner are recommended for replacement.
In addition to the floating cover and liner, the existing sample instrumentation and chlorine
feed system will receive upgrades to measure water levels, analyze the chlorine levels in
the reservoir, and mix the chlorine added to the reservoir.
Due to seasonal demands on the water treatment system, installation of the equipment
is normally recommended to take place either between September to November, or
March to May. Procuring the floating cover and liner is expected to take 3-6 months, and
the construction process, including structural evaluation, is expected to take three
months. For these reasons, staff proposes advertising the project for public bidding this
summer to allow for a contractor to be chosen and provide time to procure the materials
before initiating construction in early 2024.
A recent test was performed by the City’s Utility department to verify staff would be able
to meet the water demands while the Reservoir is offline during these construction
periods. The test proved to be successful with staff recommending construction begin in
mid-February 2024, weather allowing, to complete construction by June 2024 and
coincide with low water demand.
Public Engagement
This project was included in the public engagement process as a part of the 2021 -23
Financial Plan. No specific public engagement was performed for this project.
CONCURRENCE
The Public Works Department and Utilities Department concur with the recommendations
in this report.

Item 6h
The 2021-23 Financial Plan appropriated $1,000,000 in FY 2023-24 for Water Storage
Tank Maintenance, including the Reservoir 2 Cover Replacement Project. The Water
Storage Tank Maintenance account (2000034) has a current balance of $1,526,287 to be
used for this project. The project also assumes an approval of funding in the amount of
$200,000 in Fiscal year 2023-24 which is included in the draft 2023-25 Financial Plan.
Funding is also proposed from Water Fund’s Undesignated Capital account
(601.6501.71501), which has a current balance of $1,157,580. These combined sources
will be adequate to deliver this project. Comparing the engineer’s estimate to the total
budget available, staff recommends a publicly disclosed funding limit of $2,500,000 to
grant additional flexibility when awarding the project .
ALTERNATIVES
Deny authorization to advertise. The City Council may choose not to authorize project
advertisement. Staff does not recommend this alternative as this is a critical infrastructure
project that involves a long procurement time for materials and the project is an identified
project in the adopted Capital Improvement Plan.

The HydroACT Reagentless Chlorine Analyzer takes online disinfection monitoring to a
new level of reliability by offering industry-leading performance, an excellent track record
of EPA Method 334.0 compliance, reduced pH dependency, and no requirement for zero
calibration. Chemtrac's line of membrane covered Free and Total Chlorine sensors have
no moving parts, no bottles of reagent to change out monthly, and quarterly maintenance
takes less than five minutes to perform. HydroACT offers a versatile solution to your
disinfection monitoring needs with the flexibility to accept additional sensors, as well as
offering expandable I/O and PID control loops.
