HomeMy WebLinkAbout8 Martis Valley Well and Pipelines Memorandum
To: Board of Directors
From: Ed Taylor, Water Superintendent
Date: 4-2-01
Consideration of a funding plan for the construction of the Mardis Valley Well and
Pipelines
BACKGROUND - The Board of Directors approved the Martis Valley Well #1. The well drilling is
complete. The construction of a Pump Station and Pipeline for the project is about to start. I
previously presented to the Board an estimated construction cost for the project, which was
$1,900,000. Now that we have opened the bids for the construction of this project, we can provide a
better estimate of the cost. The new estimate of construction cost is$1,500,000.
The Board approved paying for the project out of facility fees, however there are not enough funds in
the water facility fees to pay for the entire project. This is true even at the new estimated costs.
Mary, Peter and I meet to discuss the funding of the balance of this project. During this meeting, we
discussed that there were other capital projects identified for the 2001 construction season. These
are the projects identified for construction in the Water Master Plan during the summer of 2001.
These additional projects are needed as a result of development that will be going forward this
summer.
Mary contacted Municipal Services Group for a quote for construction loan to fund the completion of
the Martis Valley Well Project. She also ask for additional quotations for the funding of the complete
project and other projects. The quotations are attached in Mary's report.
If the District funded the Martis Valley Well Project with a 10-year construction loan from Municipal
Services Group, then the current facility fees would cover the cost of the projects identified for
construction during the summer of 2001.The details of the quotation for a construction loan are in the
attached information.
RECOMMENDATION
That the Board fund the Martis Valley Well#1 Project with a construction loan for$1,500,000 with
Municipal Services Group.

Consideration of a funding plan for construction of the Mattis Valley well and pipeline
and other District capital improvement projects for the water department.
Ed Taylor has previously presented to the Board an estimated construction payment schedule for
the Mattis Valley Well#1 and pipeline. The Board approved paying forte project out of facilities
fees, however, there are not enough funds in water facildies fees to pay for the entire project(well
and pipeline). Now that Ed has opened the bids associated with the project, he has a better
estimate of the costs to complete the project and has provided the Board with an update of the
construction costs. Peter asked that i contact Municipal Services Group to find out if they would
be able to finance the balance of the project. They said that they could and they could also
include the portion that we have already paid.
When Ed, Peter and 1 met to discuss the funding of the balance of the project, we discussed
other water capital projects that will need to be done this summer as a result of
developments that will be going forward. I defer to Ed's presentation for any further
discussion on this issue.
While 1 was asking for a quote from Municipal Services Group for the completion of the
pipeline, I asked them to provide some additional quotes for discussion purposes. The
attached quotes are for 10 year terms and are for the amounts of$650,000, $1,000,000,
$1,500,000 and$2,000,000.
RECOMMENDATION.
To direct staff to pursue a financing agreement with Municipal Services Group for a defined
amount of principal as determined by the Board.
