Summary:

The Facility Conservation Improvement Project (FCIP) for Public Works was approved by Council in 2009 (Ordinance No. 09-52) and included the replacement of water meters, throughout the City, with meters from Sensus USA.

Meters purchased under this agreement will be used as replacements of portions of those meters installed in 2009, as well as new water service installations.  The City has Sensus water meters installed, and the meters read into the Sensus AMI. Core and Main is the local distributor for Sensus water meters.

Staff is currently working on contract renewal and extension of the price agreement with Sensus. In the interim, staff recommends approval of current purchase for water meters.

Financial Impact:

Expected expenditures are for approximately $167,985 and will be charged to the Water & Sewer Fund.  A portion of this cost will be offset with revenues collected when new service permits are applied and paid for.
