WORK SESSION
• Discuss and provide direction on procurement and delivery methods acceptable to City
Council for the Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) project. (T. Porter, Public Works
Director)
Freddie Guerra, representing Jones'Carter, addressed Council giving a brief presentation on Advanced
Metering Infrastructure and advantages/disadvantages of using Performance Contracting as a source of
funding for the project. The City currently utilizes an Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) system. This
system requires City staff to drive and collect all reads once a month. Advantages to an Advanced
Metering Infrastructure(AMI) system is that it can transmit data almost real-time so it gives residents and
business owners the ability to manage water usage. It also optimizes city operations and enhances
customer service. Guerra reported there are three components to a successful AMI project: procurement,
planning of operational impacts, and implementation and deployment. In regards to the procurement
process, the City can proceed with a traditional Request for Proposal (RFP) process or utilize a Request
for Qualifications (RFQ) process. Utilizing the RFQ process, the City can utilize an Energy Savings
Performance Contract (ESPC) and an Energy Services Company (ESCO), which offers a performance
guarantee, and allows the City to develop a plan to re-capture unbilled treated water.
Direction from Council was to proceed with an Energy Savings Performance Contract(ESPC) process.
• Discuss the five-year financial plan and provide feedback for future revisions. (M. Manson,
City Manager)
Manson addressed Council giving a brief presentation on the potential impact of a property tax revenue
cap. Also presented was a comparison of other cities in regards to O&M tax rate, I&S tax rate and total
tax rate, general fund revenue in total, ad valorem tax percentage of general fund, sales tax percentage of
general fund, hotel-motel revenue, general fund fund balance policy,population, and general fund
employees. Manson presented a graph that showed how new property tax revenue growth does not pay
for all costs associated with new growth expenditures, and also a table that showed general fund spending
adjusted for inflation.
Mayor Hogue requested the documents be brought back to the March 12 City Council meeting for
discussion.
