DATE: October 15,2010 SUBJECT: BCRUA Board Meeting—October 20,2010 ITEM: 7D. Consider a resolution authorizing the President to execute an Interlocal Agreement regarding Use of Construction Cost Savings from Phase 1A of the BCRUA Regional Water Treatment and Distribution Project with the Cities of Cedar Park, Round Rock,and Leander,subject to the approval of the Participating Cities. Presenter: Michael Thane Director of Infrastructure Management City of Round Rock Justification: Amendment No. 2 to the Master Contract for the Brushy Creek Regional Utility Authority(BCRUA) was necessary to revise the actual cost necessary to complete Phase 1A of the regional water project. There are six construction contracts to be awarded as part of Phase 1A. Five of these projects have already awarded construction contracts to the lowest responsible bidder. Because these construction contracts are coming in lower than the construction cost estimate that was included in Exhibit D of the Master Contract,the BCRUA is updating Exhibit D to show these construction cost savings. To date,the BCRUA has saved $30,389,968 in cost for the five projects that have been recently awarded or are under construction. This Interlocal Agreement between the BCRUA and the Cities of Round Rock,Cedar Park,and Leander is to set forth the terms and conditions for expenditure of the cost savings. The expenditure of the savings as presented in Exhibit A to this Interlocal Agreement is proposed to be used for Phase 2 Deep Water Intake preliminary engineering and analysis as well as intake site and easement acquisition. In addition,savings are proposed to be used for Phase 113 of the Water Treatment Plant,Segment 2A and 2B costs, and for funding the Leander Reserve Fund. Prior to being able to spend these savings for the proposed uses, it will require approval from the Texas Water Development Board.
