HomeMy WebLinkAbout#14 - Bulk Meter Order STAFF REPORT
DATE: 04/04/2023
CONSENT
TO: City Council
FROM: Adam Swanepoel, Assistant Public Works Director
AGENDA ITEM: Water Meter Purchase
REVIEWED BY: Marty Powers, Public Works Director
BACKGROUND: Public Works supplies meters for new construction and continues to updating old
water meters. As new construction continues to be strong, another order of meters and supplies is needed.
Ordering in bulk will take advantage of quantity discounts and save on an order of 127 meters, 130 radio
reads and an assortment of other needed meter supplies.
Accountability of all water is mandated by the DNR. With Public Work’s efforts and the use of the more
accurate meters, we have watched the water loss number drop nearly 49% over the past four years.
Purchasing meters in bulk will save $1,200.
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Based on the recommendation of Public Works, should the City Council
approve the purchase of 124 water meters, 130 radio reads and meter supplies?
PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: If approved by City Council, the new meters, radio reads and
supplies will be used in new construction and to replace failing meters. New meters and radio read devices
purchased will remain compatible with the city’s current radio read system.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not to exceed $75,000. (This expense is included in the 2023 Water Utility Budget)
OPTIONS:
• Approve purchase of a bulk meter order
• Deny purchase of bulk meter order.
• Table for further discussion.
RECOMMENDATION:
“Motion to recommend the purchase water meters, radio reads and supplies to take advantage of
discount pricing.”
