Consideration of renewal of contract to Core and Main for the purchase of water meters and associated supplies.

Body

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 for FCIP replacements as well as

new service installations and non-FCIP replacements. 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 recommends renewal of contract with Core and Main for purchase of Sensus

water meters through January 31, 2027.

Financial Impact:

Expected yearly expenditures are $675,000.00. Expenditures under this contract will

be charged to the Water and Sewer Fund. A portion of this cost will be offset with

revenues collected when new service permits are applied and paid for.
