R E: AMENDMENT #1 - NEW BULK FUEL FARM FUEL AIRPORT FUEL FARM FUEL & EQUIPMENT RFCSP
Dear Mr. Gehrke:
Thank you for the opportunity to assist with the New Bulk Fuel Farm at the Murfreesboro Municipal Airport. To date
Griggs & Maloney has provided engineering design, bidding, and construction phase services for the construction of
the concrete containment pad, truck unloading area, utilities, and grading of the surrounding area for the new fuel
farm adjacent to the ramp near where the T-hangar ramp and Taxiway C meet. G&M also assisted with the primary
power needs related to the new fuel area which is anticipated to require a new transformer, lighting around the fuel
area, and electrical and communications conduit for the equipment. The components of the project are nearing
construction completion.
G&M was requested to amend its original agreement, dated December 2020, to include assistance with developing a
Request for Competitive Sealed Proposals (RFCSP) for a fuel provider vendor and furnishing a complete, in-place fuel
management system with equipment. The RFSCP outlined the operational, maintenance and equipment needs. As
part of this, G&M assisted in developing the general specifications for the aboveground storage tanks, fuel dispensing,
and other fueling equipment (pumps, leak detection, etc.) and assisted in developing the general performance
requirements for the RFCSP. G&M supported the process during bidding, responding to bidder questions and drafting
language for addenda. G&M will assist the airport with the to be scheduled kickoff meeting with the fuel vendor.
The amount of the proposed Amendment #1 is $30,000. The work shall be performed in accordance with the terms
and conditions and billing rates agreed to in the original contract. Should you have any questions regarding this
proposal, please contact me at (615) 895-8221.

Summary
Consider construction contract Change Order No. 1 to accommodate three time-
extension requests involved with changes in contract scope.
Staff Recommendation
Approve Change Order No. 1.
Background Information
There have been five requests for changes to the project scope that have been

west of I-24, to continue to economically develop by providing capacity for new sewer
connections as well as diminishing the risk of overflows occurring during heavy periods
of rain.
Fiscal Impact
None.

Re: Overall Creek Pump Station & Force Main Expansion – Contract 1
Change Order No. 1
Dear Valerie:
Blakley Construction Services, LLC has submitted six (6) change order requests during the referenced
construction project which are compiled into this Change Order No. 1. The requested changes are
detailed in the attached change control forms (CCF(s)). Recall that CCFs 1 – 5 have been approved by
the Board. CCF 6 is a new request for a 20-day contract time extension and no cost. SSR has reviewed
CCF 6 and recommends approving the 20-day extension. Recall that CCF 3 and CCF 5 also included
time extension requests of 10 and 6 days, respectively, and were approved with the understanding that
the time portion of those CCFs would be included in a future formal contract change order. SSR
recommends a total contract time extension of 36 days as summarized in this Change Order No. 1.
Change Order No. 1 does not change the contract price. All the change items have been accounted with
the $200,000.00 construction contingency allowance, leaving $80,713.00 in available allowance funds. If
MWRD agrees with the change order, please sign, and return a copy to me.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Sincerely,
SMITH SECKMAN REID, INC.

ORDINANCE 23-O-25 amending the Murfreesboro City Code, Chapter
21, Offenses and Miscellaneous Provisions, Article I, Section 21-25,
regarding sexually oriented adult entertainment.
WHEREAS, the conduct of sexually oriented adult entertainment in proximity
to certain other permitted land uses has deleterious secondary impacts upon public
safety, public health, property values, community economic conditions, and the
reasonable use and enjoyment of adjacent permit land uses; and
WHEREAS, special regulation of sexually oriented adult entertainment is
necessary to prevent adverse effects that contribute to the diminishment of property
rights, contribute to the blighting or downgrading of surrounding areas, and tend to
limit the beneficial use of public facilities for which significant public funds have been
expended; and
WHEREAS, the City Council believes it is in the best interests of the City to
adopt an ordinance that restricts the location at which sexual oriented adult
entertainment may be conducted.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF MURFREESBORO, TENNESSEE, AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Chapter 21, Article I of the Murfreesboro City Code is hereby
amended by deleting the existing Section 21-25, currently marked “Reserved,” and in

Parental Guidelines.
(C) Measurements required under subsection (A) shall be made in a straight

Item Title: Sewer Allocation Variance- River Rock Boulevard – Commercial
Development
Department: Planning
Presented by: Brad Barbee, Planner
Requested Council Action:
Ordinance ☐
Resolution ☐
Motion ☒
Direction ☐
Information ☐
Summary
A proposed development request for additional density above the sewer allocation
ordinance’s zoning allowance.
Staff Recommendation
Approval of variance request allowing higher single-family unit equivalent density (sfu)
by approximately one sfu for the proposed commercial center.
Background Information
The Planning Department has conducted a pre-application meeting for a site plan for a
new multi-tenant commercial center to be located at the intersection of River Rock
Boulevard and the new Beasie Road connector street, which is currently under
construction. For additional context, this property also houses the former Racquet Club
building. The property is currently zoned Commercial Highway (CH), which, per the
ordinance, only allows 2.5 sfu’s/acre. The lot in question is 3.2 acres in size and thus
is allowed only eight sfu’s. The anticipated usage is approximately nine sfu’s; therefore,
the development of the commercial center will use more than the ordinance allows by
approximately one sfu. The sanitary sewer system can handle the increased flows for
the proposed development. Staff views the advantages of job creation and tax revenue
of greater benefit than the requested additional sewer capacity.
Council Priorities Served
Improve economic development
The development will create jobs and provide additional tax revenue. It will also
provide commercial services convenient to the large number of existing rooftops in the
vicinity.
Concurrence
MWRD concurs with the request based on sewer system capacity.
Fiscal Impact
The development will generate commercial tax rate revenue as well as pay one-time
development fees.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 20, 2023
TO: Greg McKnight
FROM: Valerie H. Smith
SUBJECT: Racquet Club Subdivision Lot 1 (Phase 1)
Sewer Allocation Ordinance (SAO)
Variance Request
Sewer System Capacity
The sanitary sewer collection system can convey the estimated sewer flows resulting from this
development and its request to vary from the density requirements associated with its current
land use zoning.
Effects within Basin by Providing Variance to Sewer Allocation
Per the most recent sewer connection model of the system and per the 2022 Sewer Allocation
report, this Basin MF11A currently has capacity for 4759 connections. By committing sewer
service to this development, Staff is determining that basin 11A’s sewer connection capacity will
be reduced by one connection, resulting in 4758 available connections for future developments.
Currently, staff have determined there is capacity downstream of the site. Please note that while
each building is counted as 1 sewer connection, the current single‐family unit (sfu) equivalency
based on estimated water usage data is determined to be 9 sfu’s, resulting in a larger sewer
discharge than the 490 gallon per day per connection average the model is based upon.
Per the existing Commercial Highway zoning (allotted 2.5 sfu/acre) and acreage, 3.2 acres, the
property is allowed 8 sfu’s. Therefore, the development is requesting a variance of 1 sfu.
Water Resources staff advises variance requests to be diligently considered to ensure the benefit
to the City is commensurate with the sewer capacity committed to any proposed development
requesting a variance to the sewer allocation ordinance.
