PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
Staff is requesting that the City Council approve Amendment No. 1 to the City's contract with DOWL HKM for WO 12-14, Integrated Water Plan Implementation (IWPI), Wastewater Collection System Study in the amount of $50,000.00. The contract term would also be extended to March 31, 2014.
The contract price increase would add a Wastewater Master Planning effort to the current contract which would conduct a condition assessment on existing collection system components and explore and develop specific improvement alternatives to the City's collection system. Work would include reviewing and coordinating with the findings of other IWPI planning documents, such as the Wastewater Treatment Facility Plan and the Reuse and Reclamation Study, assessing the condition of existing system components, conducting additional modeling, conducting technical analysis of alternatives, producing planning level cost estimates, developing and recommending a 10-year CIP, and documenting all work performed in report format.
The proposed Master Planning effort will be closely guided and refined by City staff based on further evaluation of recommended improvement alternatives being produced by DOWL HKM under the current W.O. 12-14 contract work.
