Res. 4943, FY19 Budget Amendment for Wastewater Fee Fund Commission Memorandum REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: Kristin Donald, Finance Director Shawn Kohz, Interim Public Works Director SUBJECT: Commission Resolution No. 4943 – Amending the City’s Annual Budget for the Wastewater Impact Fee Fund Appropriations for the Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2019 (FY19). MEETING DATE: August 13, 2018 AGENDA ITEM: Action RECOMMENDATION: Approve Resolution No. 4943- Amending the City’s Annual Budget for Wastewater Impact Fee Fund Appropriations. BACKGROUND: This budget amendment concerns an impact fee refund and an impact fee CIP project. First, on July 23, 2018 the Commission approved Resolution 4939, which provided Wastewater Impact Fee to Montana State University. The refund amount for water and wastewater impact fees paid for Yellowstone Residence Hall and Jake Jabs Hall. Both of these facilities paid impact fees at the time they connected to the water and wastewater systems was approved via the resolution. Respective fee amounts were determined on gallon per gallon basis. Metered water use for these buildings show that the MSU is due a refund as their actual water and wastewater demand is much less than that for which the fees were paid. The refund approved totaled $133,338.26. 211 Second, Norton East Ranch Interceptor (WWIF 38) was proposed for FY20. The consultant working on the preliminary analysis of the Norton East Ranch Interceptor has indicated the route proposed in the sewer master plan may not be feasible either fiscally or from a long-term maintenance standpoint. Therefore, we need to look at an alternative to the Norton East Ranch Interceptor, which is to upgrade the existing Baxter Meadows Lift Station and the existing sewer mains into and out of the Baxter Meadows Lift Station. If the Norton East Ranch Interceptor is not feasible, this also impacts the sizing of the Davis Lane Lift Station. This budget amendment is to fund preliminary engineering work for the revised design ideas. The consultant's scope indicates a schedule of 100 days from the date of approval of their scope and fee. The additional work cost total is $54,840.00 ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the Commission. FISCAL EFFECTS: The current budgeted spending in the Wastewater Impact Fee Fund will increase by a total of $188,178.26. The FY19 estimated ending cash balance in the Wastewater Impact Fee Fund will be decreased from $2,210,818 to $2,022,640. We have cash available due to changes in the street reconstruction projects and timing.
