History The 2015-2019 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) was adopted on August 11, 2014. The following long-term planning documents are part of the CIP: • Transportation Plan (2015-2024)— identifies the major roadway improve- ments involving both new and reconstruction projects that need to be coor- dinated with Scott County. • Equipment Replacement Plan (2015-2026) - identifies the City's vehicle and equipment needs and establishes a regular replacement schedule. • Park Plan (2015-2039) — identifies the equipment replacement demands for 46 neighborhood parks. • Technology Plan (2015-2025) — identifies hardware and software needs and establishes a regular replacement schedule. • Facilities Management Plan (2015-2037)— identifies major repairs or im- provements to all City-owned buildings. Staff has been working with Honeywell ESG to evaluate projects city wide that have energy savings associated and could be accomplished under a Guaran- teed Energy Savings Program contract. The GESP project consists primarily of a number of replacements identified in the City's Facilities Management Plan (FMP). Through the auditing process a suite of these projects has been rec- ommended to be included in the GESP contract that capture energy savings or are linked to projects that provide energy savings. Staff presented the Guaranteed Energy Savings Program to the City Council during workshops held on August 11, 2014 and October 27, 2014. This in- cluded several options: 1) $2.67 million in projects financed over a 15-year period with $60k annual capital cost avoidance; 2) $1.77 million in projects fi- nanced over a 10-year period with $60k annual capital cost avoidance; and 3) $2.67 million in projects financed over a 10-year period with $151 k annual cap- ital cost avoidance. The City Council provided feedback during the October 27 workshop that they were interested in pursuing option#3. Staff was asked to present an updated Facilities Management Plan (preferably before the December 8 budget hearing) which reflects the projects remaining in the Plan with the assumption that the Council authorizes Option 3. Current Circumstances The updated Facilities Management Plan is attached to this agenda report. The following projects are included in the GESP and are no longer included in the FMP, other capital plans, or the operating budget: • Citywide Lighting Upgrades - Lighting retrofit & fixture replacement (interior&exterior), Lighting controls , where applicable, Memorial Park Field Lighting, Traffic signal LED installation, City Hall emergency light- ing replacement • Citywide Building Controls Upgrades - Recommission existing DDC controls systems; modify setpoints & strategies (City Hall, Police), ex- pand DDC systems to provide energy savings and improved operation of HVAC systems (Fire Station #2). Install new systems, where appli- cable, to allow for citywide remote monitoring (Maint. Ct., Fire Station #1) • Chiller Plant Improvements & Install isolation damper—City Hall • Citywide Building Envelope -Weather strip & seal doors, windows & roof-to-wall junctions • VAV Occupancy Sensors— City Hall, Library, Police Station • Rebalance AHU's—City Hall, Library, FS#1, Maintenance Center, Po- lice Station • Overhead Door Replacement&Controls—Maintenance Center, FS #1 • Replace infrared heaters - Maintenance Center, FS #1 • Replace AHU's — Maintenance Center, FS#1 • Replace MUA Units - Maintenance Center, FS#1 • Replace Boiler— Library Projects that are remaining in the FMP for 2015 are as follows: Fire Station #1 -$87,056 • Epoxy Flooring • Pressure Washer • Water softener • Exhaust Fan Maintenance Center- $598,933 • Membrane Roof • Steel Doors Library/Club Prior-$111,124 • Sidewalk Replacement 2 • Landscape light fixtures • Air Handling Unit Conclusion The Council should consider approving the resolution which amends the Facil- ities Management Plan. Staff will update the proposed 2015 budget for the Facilities Management Fund to correspond with the amended Facilities Man- agement Plan. The proposed 2015 budget will be presented during the Budget Meeting on December 8, 2014. ISSUES: The original FMP was not updated as part of the 2015-2019 CIP process. As part of the review of the GESP and the investment grade audit that was con- ducted, Staff updated the costs associated with the projects and referred to this version of the FMP as the status quo version. The status quo version was the basis for any variances that were cited for presenting the three options. The Council expressed interest in pursuing Option #3 which is a 10-year lease term that includes a $151,000 annual capital cost avoidance contribution. This will have an impact on the tax levy starting in 2016. The remaining projects in the FMP will be funded by the issuance of bond pro- ceeds, contributions from the Water Fund and Sewer Fund and the property tax levy. The action proposed in this agenda report does set the stage for the contract approval with Honeywell so that the GESP Program can be implemented in the next twelve months. FINANCIAL The updated Facilities Management Plan reflects funding from the Water Fund, IMPACT: Sewer Fund, property tax levy, bond proceeds and interest earnings. The prop- erty tax levy contribution begins in 2016. The status quo FMP did not reflect a property tax contribution in 2016. The updated Plan also reflects bond proceeds in the amount of$600k for pur- poses of funding the improvements at the maintenance center. The status quo FMP reflected bond proceeds in the amount of$1.47M. Approval of this amended FMP does not constitute final project approval. Per the Purchasing Policy, purchases exceeding $20k will come before the City Council. All future bonding decisions are approved by the City Council, as well. ALTERNATIVES: The following alternatives are available to the City Council: 1. Approve a resolution amending the 2015-2019 CIP for changes in the Fa- cilities Management Plan; 2. Table the Resolution for a specific reason. 3. Deny the Resolution and provide staff with additional direction. RECOMMENDED Alternative#1 MOTION: REPORTS 1.
