Agenda Item Brief: Consideration and possible approval of the Interlocal Cooperative Agreement for Reimbursement between the City of Sparks and the Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA), for the C Street Sewer Rehabilitation Project. TMWA has agreed to reimburse the City for all costs related to the replacement of their water line, located within the project area. Staff recommends approval.


Background: During design of the C Street Sewer Rehabilitation Project all utility companies within the roadway were notified of the work to ensure new streets are not compromised after asphalt replacement. Since the existing water line was nearing its service life, TMWA determined they would replace it. The City and TMWA agreed that the most efficient and cost effective way to accomplish this task was to include the TMWA portion in the City of Sparks bid.

Analysis: The scope of the project includes abandoning the existing water line, filling with slurry, and installing a new TMWA water line. As part of this Interlocal Cooperative Agreement, TMWA will reimburse the City for all expenses accrued that relate to the water line replacement. The bid items were separated out by the “City Portion – Schedule A” and the “TMWA Portion – Schedule B”. The TMWA portion, which will be reimbursed, is a total of $124,600.

Alternatives: 1. City Council could approve the attached Interlocal Cooperative Agreement for Reimbursement between the City of Sparks and the Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA) as outlined by Staff. 2. City Council could reject the attached Interlocal Cooperative Agreement for Reimbursement between the City of Sparks and the Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA) and provide direction to the City Manager.

Recommended Motion: “I move to approve the Interlocal Cooperative Agreement for Reimbursement between the City of Sparks and the Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA), for the C Street Sewer Rehabilitation Project.”
