16 City of Colfax Lift Station #2 Pump Motor Rebuild – Flo-Line Technology Inc.
Staff Report June 8, 2023
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE JUNE 8, 2023 SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Prepared by: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Subject: Lift Station #2 Pump Motor Rebuild – Flo-Line Technology Inc.
Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: Funded: √ Un-funded: Amount: $11,376 Fund(s): 561
Summary/Background
The City owns and maintains four sewer lift stations. Lift Station #2 has four pump motors with two motors in series that are designed to alternate usage to reduce the wear on just one pump. The pump redundancy is intended to create a back-up system should one of the pump motors fail. One of the two pumps in the series has failed, therefore, the lift station operation redundancy is not currently possible.
Staff believes it is prudent to rebuild the motor for the Lift Station. Flo-Line Technology Inc provided the attached proposal to rebuild the motor at $11,376, which includes a 10% contingency. In addition, Commercial Pump will install the motor under a separate agreement within the City Manager’s signatory limit.
Fiscal Impacts
The motor rebuild is funded with Fund 561 in the amount not to exceed $11,376.
Attachments:
1. Resolution __-2023
2. Proposals Flo-Line Technology Inc
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve Resolution __- 2023 authorizing the City Manager to enter into agreement with Flo-Line Technology Inc. to rebuild Lift Station #2 pump in the amount not to exceed $11,376.

FOR THE JUNE 8, 2023 SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Prepared by: Shanna Stahl, Administrative Analyst
Laurie Van Groningen, Finance Director
Subject: Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Rate Adjustments
Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):
Summary/Background
Effective July 1, 2023, the City will be implementing annual rate adjustments for the following categories:
1. Sewer Impact Fees
2. CalPERS retirement Employer and Employee contribution rates
3. City employee salary adjustments
Sewer Impact Fees
New connections to the City of Colfax sewer system are assessed a sewer impact fee (connection fee) in accordance with Municipal Code Chapter 13.08. The Code stipulates that the sewer impact fee shall be adjusted on July 1st of each year by the City Engineer by a percentage equal to the annual percentage of increase or decrease in the San Francisco Bay Area construction cost index, as published in the May Engineering NewsRecord (ENR) or equivalent ENR data.
The City has received the May 2023 ENR data from GHD and the construction cost index is reported at a
1.75% increase. The City is applying the increase to calculate the fiscal year 2023-2024 sewer impact fee as reflected in the chart below. Effective July 1, 2023, the sewer impact fee will be adjusted to $11,310 per Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU).
Fiscal Year Previous ENR% New Rate*
2021-2022 $9,300 4.70% $9,740
2022-2023 $9,740 14.2% $11,120
2023-2024 $11,120 1.75% $11,310
*Rounded to the nearest ten dollars for simplicity.
California Public Employee’s Retirement System (CalPERS) Retirement The CalPERS Actuarial Office provides an annual valuation report each year which contains specific information for the City retirement plans including the development of the current and projected employer and employee contributions. The required normal payroll contributions for fiscal year 2023-2024 are reflected in the following chart.

Salary Schedules
In accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Colfax and I.U.O.E Stationary Engineers, Local 39 (Union), a cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) is due effective July 1, 2023. The COLA is based on an average of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for San Francisco- Oakland-San Jose Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers and United States City Average Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers.
The average CPI for the fiscal year 2022-2023 COLA calculation is 4.70%. The contracted maximum increase of 4% will be applied. Consistent with previous years and the adopted operating budget, the City will apply this increase to both represented and non-represented employees’ salary schedules. The salary schedules for fiscal year 2023-2024 are attached to this report.
Monthly Sewer Rates
In June of 2018, the City Council, after due notice, public hearing, and protests heard and received in an open and public meeting adopted and approved the City of Colfax Wastewater Rate Study prepared by Rural Community Assistance Corporation (RCAC) relating to the Sewer Service Charges for Fiscal Years 2018- 2019 through 2022-2023. The Sewer Service Charges adopted by Resolution 42-2018 are reflected below.
The City has initiated a new five-year Rate Study that is not anticipated to be completed until later this calendar year. We anticipate reporting results and recommending any rate adjustments by January 2024. In the meantime, we recommend that the monthly sewer rate be held at the current rate of $143.07 ($286.14 bimonthly billing) that was effective July 1, 2023.

FOR THE JUNE 8, 2023 SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Prepared by: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Subject: Placer County Sheriff Contract – 3-Year Agreement Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: Funded: √ Un-funded: Amount: $2,919,296 Fund(s): 100-300, 218-000 RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution _-2023 authorizing the City Manager to enter into a threeyear agreement with the Placer County Sheriff-Coroner-Marshal’s Office beginning Fiscal Year 2023/2024.
Summary/Background
The City of Colfax and Placer County executed an agreement in 2015 for Placer County Sheriff-CoronerMarshal’s services. Between 2016 and 2022, the City and County executed an annual extension to the 2015 agreement.
Previously, the County was unable to enter into a multi-year agreement due to the Prop F salary assessment that occurred annually. Placer County Board of Supervisors adopted a policy that eliminates the Prop F salary evaluations, which has provided an opportunity for the City to negotiate a multi-year contract.
Typically, the annual Placer County Sheriff-Coroner-Marshal contract extension required City staff to negotiate the contract increase percentage, so the increase was manageable. The proposed contract percentage increase annually is within previous years increase percentages; therefore, staff is recommending council approve the three-year agreement. It is worth noting the contract has language that would allow the County to renegotiate the cost if there was a change in contract with PCSO that warrants an unanticipated salary increase.
Fiscal Impacts
The contract is for three years in the amount of $2,919,296 from Funds 100-300 and 218-000.

The agreement was subsequently amended by Resolution on October 29, 2022 raising the agreement amount to $662,520 to enhance design components of the Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation projects.
Algae Reduction Project – Solicitation for SCADA Professional The Algae Reduction Project requires a professional firm to develop programming to control the new Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system that will be provided to the City by the contractor constructing the Algae Reduction Project. Wood Rodgers provided the attached proposal for $23,600 to manage the solicitation and proposal selection process. City staff believes that Wood Rodgers is uniquely suited to manage this process since they are intimately familiar with these Projects, and they have managed similar professional solicitation in the past.
The City has been working with Wood Rodgers over the past four years to develop, implement and manage the CWSRF grant project. As shown in their attached proposal, this amendment to their agreement increases the budget by $35,600 to $698,120. As explained in the proposal, the amendment includes $12,000 to augment the time and material budget out-of-scope work performed over the past year.
Staff recommends that City Council authorize amendment of Wood Rodgers’ agreement as outlined in their attached proposal.
Fiscal Impacts
The additional $35,600 cost will be reimbursed by the State through the existing CWSRF funding Agreement No. D2101007 executed between the City and SWRCB on January 6, 2022.

The proposed resolution, if adopted, will award and authorize the City Manager to execute contracts for two contracts that will improve the City’s sewer collection system and treatment plant. The City will not have sufficient funds to complete either project unless the SWRCB approves an increase in grant funds for these projects, so both can be terminated early if the additional grant funds do not become available.
On November 29, 2021, the City received a construction grant totaling nearly $5.6 million from the State Water Resources Control Board’s (SWRCB) Clean Water State Revolving Funds (CWSRF). The grant is intended to fund three sewer-related projects, including a solar system at the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), an algae reduction system at the WWTP, and citywide stormwater inflow and groundwater infiltration (I&I) mitigation.
Solar system construction began in early 2022 and was substantially completed at the end of March 2023. The solar system construction will cost approximately $2 million which leaves about $3.6 million for the algae reduction and I&I mitigation projects.
The Algae Reduction and the I&I Mitigation Projects were advertised for bid in January 2023 with bids opened on March 9, 2023. The City has 120 days from bid opening (until July 7, 2023) to award either or both contracts, or reject all bids. Staff propose to award both contracts, and give McGuire & Hester notice to proceed. If the SRF grant is increased as SWRCB staff indicated it will be, McGuire & Hester will pursue the project to completion. If the SRF grant is not increased, both projects will be terminated once the grant funds run out. McGuire & Hester agreed to accept $60,000 plus the compensation due it through the date of early termination if its contract is terminated early. W.M. Lyles agreed to delay start of construction until after the SRF grant is increased with an estimated project cost increase due to labor and material cost increase of $154,000. If the City terminates the contract then W.M. Lyles will be eligible, with justification, for reimbursement of their out-of-pocket costs plus markup, in accordance with the contract terms.
Algae Reduction Conditional Award Authorization
The Algae Reduction Project was developed by City staff because treated and partially treated wastewater stored in WWTP ponds must be removed by sending it to through the WWTP’s treatment process. During warmer months the ponds grow algae that inhibits the process. The Algae Reduction Project will add a RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution __-2023 authorizing the City Manager to execute agreements for the following projects, subject to early termination if the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) does not adequately increase the grant funds for these projects:
1. The Algae Reduction Project to W.M. Lyles Company for a construction cost of $3,964,224.
2. The I&I Mitigation Project to McGuire and Hester for a construction cost of $4,225,633. 76 Item 9A

Staff Report June 8, 2023
specialized pre-treatment process called Suspended Air Floatation (SAF). A SAF system can separate the algae from the rest of the pond water to mitigate the inhibiting effect that the algae has on the WWTP’s treatment process.
Six bids were received on March 9th with costs ranging from $3,964,224 to $4,587,576. W.M. Lyles was determined to be responsible with the lowest responsive bid.
Staff recommends that City Council conditionally award the project to W.M. Lyles for $3,964,224 and authorize construction expenditures up to $4,564,224 (a $600,000 contingency). The condition for the award is described below.
I&I Mitigation Conditional Award Authorization
I&I is caused by groundwater and street-level stormwater entering the sewer collection system. Once in the system, the City must treat this water at its WWTP at a significant cost. The goal of the I&I Mitigation project is to reduce, to the greatest extent possible, I&I. Along with treatment cost reductions, benefits include increased sewer capacity to support new development without costly upgrades to the sewer system and less wear and tear on the pipes and manholes.
The improvements for the I&I Mitigation Project include the following key components. • Rehabilitation, replacement, and new construction of 6,070 feet of sewer main • Replacement and new construction of 49 sewer manholes • Replacement of 78 sewer services
Two bids were received on March 9th with costs totaling $4,225,633 and $5,238,228. McGuire and Hester was determined to be responsible with the lowest responsive bid.
Staff recommends that City Council conditionally award the project to McGuire and Hester for $4,225,633 and authorize construction expenditures up to $5,225,633 (a $1,000,000 contingency). The condition for the award is described below.
CWSRF Grant and Condition for Award
The City has an existing agreement with SWRCB for a $5.6 million grant for the projects, including the nearly completed Solar System. It is expected that the Solar System will cost $2.0 million which leaves $3.6 for the I&I Mitigation and Algae Reduction projects. Combined, the Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation Projects are expected to cost $9.6 million, before contingency; therefore, the project has a grant shortfall of $5.8 million.
City staff has been talking with SWRCB staff regarding this shortfall since August 2022. SWRCB staff have stated several times that the grant funds allocated to Colfax can be increased to as much as $21 million based on the City’s median household income. Based on these verbal statements by SWRCB staff, City Council authorized bidding of the two projects in January.
At this time, it is the City staff’s understanding that the CWSRF grant will be increased to $13.3 million (which includes enough funding for the substantially completed Solar Project and for the I&I Mitigation and Algae Reduction projects with $1.9 million in construction contingency) in August 2023 when SWRCB completes statewide programming of the CWSRF funds. However, the existing remaining grant funds of $3.6 million should be available to spend on either or both the I&I Mitigation and Algae Reduction project the City by the end of May 2023.
77 Item 9A
Project AwardAlgae Control and I&I Mitigation
City of Colfax
Staff Report June 8, 2023
If the City Council authorizes the award of the Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation Projects, then it should be conditioned on the allocation of the $3.6 million balance of the existing $5.6 million SRF grant. SWRCB staff will not provide written confirmation that the additional $7.7 million will be programmed to Colfax in August 2023. The City’s bid documents allow 120 days between bid opening and award which must occur by July 7, before SWRCB staff’s anticipated August grant increase is approved. If City Council does not award the project within that time period, then there are two possible outcomes. 1) The contractors will agree to enter into a construction contract but at rates higher than their bid amounts due to increasing labor and materials costs; and, 2) The City must reject all bids and decide whether to rebid the projects.
On May 12th, SWRCB staff, through email, notified City staff “that there are sufficient funds in the project’s funding source to cover the increase and that the project schedule is within the appropriation date range for the funding source.“ While this statement is not a guarantee that the additional fund will be provided, it is SWRCB staffs method of providing reassurance.
The City has a $5.6 million construction grant with SWRCB. Of the three projects, the Solar System Project is fully funded. There are insufficient grant funds to complete the other two projects without a $5.8 million grant increase. Along with the additional $5.8 million grant fund, City staff has requested $1.9 million construction contingency, increasing the total grant to $13.3 million. SWRBC staff has verbally stated that those additional funds will be granted to the City in August 2023.
Staff recommends that City Council authorize the award of the Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation Projects under the condition that SWRCB allocates the $3.6 million remaining in the existing $5.6 million construction grant funds. Contracts are available at City Hall for review. These initial funds will be used to start construction, but the additional $5.8 million will be required to complete construction and the additional $1.9 million construction contingency will ensure unforeseen eligible costs are also covered by the CWSRF grant. If the grant is not increased as anticipated, both projects will be terminated early and the contractors will be compensated accordingly.
Fiscal Impacts
The total fiscal impact for the construction of both the Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation Project is $8,189,857. If the proposed contingency is used then construction will cost $9,789,857.
The initial construction cost of the projects will be reimbursed by the State through the existing CWSRF funding Agreement No. D2101007 executed between the City and SWRCB on January 6, 2022. The agreement is expected to be amended in August 2023 to fund the remaining construction with 100% CWSRF grant funds.

Discussion, Consideration and Possible Action to Adopt a Resolution approving an agreement with MNJ Advisors, Inc., and appointing Michael J. Luken as Interim City Manager effective June 28, 2023.
Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):
Summary/Background
City Manager Wes Heathcock announced he has accepted a position with the Town of Loomis, and that his final day with the City is June 9, 2023. The city will be opening an executive recruitment for the search process for the permanent City Manager; however, this process can take up to six months from the time it is initiated. Based upon this timing, there is a need for the City Council to hire an Interim City Manager.
The City Manager is hired by and serves at the pleasure of the elected City Council. The City Council is the policy body, and the City Manager is the individual responsible for implementing Council policy direction. The City Manager manages the organization on a daily basis, hires staff, oversees the budget and drives forward the City Council’s projects and initiatives.
The appointment of an Interim City Manager is important to ensure the organization has the leadership it needs during the recruitment for a new, permanent City Manager, and a competent Interim City Manager can give the City Council the time it needs to conduct a thorough recruitment.
The City Council held discussions for the Interim City Manager position in a closed session over the past month. The City was fortunate to have a highly qualified candidate available to assume this position.
The City Council decided to bring forward Michael Luken for formal consideration as the Interim City Manager. Mr. Luken has 35 years in land use planning, economic development, city/county management and recently retired as the Executive Director of Placer County Transportation Planning Agency and is uniquely familiar with many projects in progress in Colfax. Mr. Luken has an MA in Rural and Town Planning from Chico State University and a BA in Geography and Planning from California Polytechnic University, Humboldt. Mr. Luken brings a wealth of city management experience to the City of Colfax.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Discuss, consider and adopt Resolution No. ___-2023 approving an agreement with MNJ Advisors, Inc, and appointing Michael Luken as Interim City Manager effective June 28, 2023. 81 Item 9B
City of Colfax
Staff Report June 8, 2023
Interim City Manager
If approved, Mr. Luken will take the reins on June 28, 2023. Mr. Luken will serve until a permanent City Manager is hired by the City Council or his term expires pursuant to the contract with his consulting firm, MNJ Advisors Inc., whichever is earlier.
Because Mr. Luken is a CalPERS retiree, the City Council is required to approve a formal PERS resolution appointing Mr. Luken for the limited time the recruitment is in process. A resolution identifying some of the key requirements accompanies this staff report for action by the City Council.
These requirements include, among other things:
• Limited Duration Work: The retiree can be hired only as an interim or acting appointment during the period of recruitment.
• Single Appointment: The retiree can be appointed only once to the vacant position. In other words, the City Council cannot extend the date of service or make a change to the agreement in the future.
• Compensation: The hourly rate to be paid to the retiree cannot be less than the minimum or exceed the maximum for the vacant position as listed on the employer’s publicly available pay schedule. The retiree cannot receive any benefits, incentive, compensation in lieu of benefits, or other form of compensation in addition to the hourly pay rate. The retiree may be reimbursed for reasonable expenses.
For all of the above reasons, staff recommends the City Council discuss, consider and take action to adopt the proposed resolution, approve an agreement with MNJ Advisors Inc., and appoint Michael Luken as Interim City Manager effective June 28, 2023.
Fiscal Impact
A budget amendment is not needed to support this proposed action. The contract can be funded for the remaining FY 2022/2023 and for the FY 2023/2024 fiscal year.

If within five days after the meet and confer the parties are unable to agree upon the selection of a neutral mediator, then the first available retired judge or justice at the Sacramento office of JAMS shall serve as the neutral mediator. The parties agree to commit to at least one full day to the mediation process. Additionally, to expedite the resolution of any dispute that is not resolved by mediation, the parties agree to each bring to the neutral mediation a list of at least five neutral arbitrators, including their resumes, whose availability for an arbitration hearing within 30 days after the mediation has been confirmed.
If mediation is unsuccessful, before the mediation concludes, the parties shall mediate the selection of a neutral arbitrator to assist in the resolution of their dispute. If the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator, the parties agree to submit selection of an arbitrator to the mediator, whose decision shall be binding on the parties. In that case, the mediator shall select a neutral arbitrator from the then active list of retired judges or justices at the Sacramento Office of the JAMS. The arbitration shall be conducted pursuant to the provisions of the California Arbitration Act, sections 1280-1294.2 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. In such case, the provisions of Code of Civil Procedure Section 1283.05 and 1283.1 shall apply and are hereby incorporated into this Agreement.
This section shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. If there is no Sacramento office of JAMS, then the office of JAMS closest to the City shall be used instead of a Sacramento office.
