Title
Approval of Potable Water System Hydraulic Modeling - Phase II by McKim &Creed
Summary:
Staff is seeking Infrastructure Board approval to proceed with the Potable Water Hydraulic Modeling - Phase II. Phase I of the Potable Water System Hydraulic Modeling has already commenced in December of 2019
End
Body
Previous Commission Action: N/A
Background/Problem Discussion: As the Town moves forward into the new decade with the Strategic Planning goals that have been set forth in 2019, the overall evaluation of the Town’s Water Plant and its town wide distribution system are critical components that need updating. In order to better evaluate the existing water distribution system, a hydraulic model must be created and calibrated. This also involves updating the existing GIS maps with the size and material of the current water mains. The model will also evaluate water aging, daily maximum and minimum pressures, and pumping capacity needs (current and future).Finally, it will help determine water main size replacement needs that will need to be coordinated with all future CIP projects within town limts.
Expenditure Challenges Funding for this phase of the modeling is going to come from Water Fund reserve balance.
Financial Implications: The total cost of the Potable Water System Hydraulic Modeling - Phase II is $63,554.00
Recommendation: Staff recommends the Infrastructure Board move approval of the Potable Water System Hydraulic Modeling - Phase II by McKim & Creed for $63,554.00.
Proposed Motion I move approval of the Potable Water System Hydraulic Modeling - Phase II by McKim & Creed for $63,554.00.
