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.  In 2011, Sensus USA, Inc. transferred distribution of its water meters to Core and Main.  A contract was established with Core and Main. 

Staff recommends renewal of contract with Core and Main for purchase of Sensus water meters through January 31, 2021.

Financial Impact:

Expected expenditures for 2019 and 2020 are $200,000.00.  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.
