HomeMy WebLinkAbout02-03-2015 C4 Water Master Plan Contract Amendments FROM: Carrie Mattingly, Utilities Director Prepared By: Jennifer Metz, Utilities Project Manager SUBJECT: WATER MASTER PLAN CONTRACT AMENDMENT #1 RECOMMENDATION 1. Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract amendment of $48,070 for the Wallace Group to complete the City’s 2015 Water Master Plan. 2. Approve the transfer of $48,070 from the Water Fund’s General Carryover to Water Administration Contract Services. DISCUSSION A Significant Operating Program Change (SOPC) was approved by the City Council as part of the 2012-13 Mid Year Budget for master planning of the City’s water and recycled water distribution systems. The City entered into an agreement in April 2013 with the Wallace Group for $205,815 to prepare a Water Master Plan Update and Recycled Water Master Plan Update. The City has received drafts of both documents. $8,060.71 is remaining in the original project budget. At this time, additional work is needed including surveying of the City’s water tanks to verify base, inlet and overflow elevations. This data will be used in the hydraulic model to verify the zone consolidation feasibility of the recommendations in the draft Water Master Plan and future capital improvement planning. Utilities Department staff has also asked Wallace Group to utilize the hydraulic model to assist with review of development projects and for water main sizing for the projects in the Airport Area and Orcutt Area, and for capital improvement projects. The scope of the Contract Amendment is further described in Attachment 1. FISCAL IMPACT The Water Fund currently has a balance of $250,000 in General Carryover to accommodate this request. The project budget is displayed below.
