Richardson, Roswell, NM 88202 Wednesday, December 28, 2016 at 3:30 p.m. ACTION REQUESTED: Water Facility Review and Discussion BACKGROUND: At the December 8, 2016 City Council meeting, the Council reviewed three options for the water facility that may be included with the new recreation center project. The Council gave direction to proceed with the third option, but to review alternatives of this option as it relates to swim meets. The third option had an indoor lap swim area along with outdoor pool and splash pad features. The concept designs included in this packet are for discussion purposes to allow the Committee and Council to provide further direction to staff for this portion of the project. Formal design will be completed through the design process of which the funding for this portion will come through the funding of the full project. More detailed information regarding size, cost to build, and cost to operate will be outlined in a presentation to Committee at this meeting. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATION: Funding for the full project has been directed by Council to be provided through a GRT bond in an amount of $18 million. A larger facility will require more funds and/or limitations on the outdoor portion of the water facility. Additionally, operating expenses will vary based on the ratio of indoor to outdoor space and the size of the facility. LEGAL REVIEW: Not applicable. BOARD AND COMMITTEE ACTION: Discuss water facility general direction and intended use. This is a non-action item. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. 3 Concept: Original Scheme • 6 Lane Lap Swim 25Yd (Indoor) • Zero Entry • Large Tube Slide (Outdoor) • Toddler Section (Outdoor) • With Splash Pad Elements • Small Slide • Zero Entry • Instructional Area (Outdoor) • With Seating • 2 Grand Staircases (Outdoor) • Large Open Swim Area (Outdoor) • Shade Structures (Outdoor) 4 Concept: 2 Additional Lanes • 8 Lane Lap Swim 25 Yd (Indoor) • Zero Entry • Large Tube Slide (Outdoor) • Toddler Section (Outdoor) • With Splash Pad Elements • Small Slide • Zero Entry • Instructional Area (Outdoor) • With Seating • 2 Grand Staircases (Outdoor) • Large Open Swim Area (Outdoor) • Shade Structures (Outdoor) 5 Concept: 4 Additional Lanes, 2x Length • 10 Lane Lap Swim 50Yd (Indoor) • Large Tube Slide (Outdoor) • Toddler Section (Outdoor) • With Splash Pad Elements • Small Slide • Zero Entry • Instructional Area (Outdoor) • With Seating • 2 Grand Staircases (Outdoor) • Large Open Swim Area (Outdoor) • Shade Structures (Outdoor) 6 CITY OF ROSWELL General Services Committee City Hall Conference Room 425 N. Richardson, Roswell, NM 88202 Wednesday, December 28, 2016 at 3:30 p.m. ACTION REQUESTED: Water Line Failure at Nancy Lopez Golf Course at Spring River BACKGROUND: A Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) on the 36" concrete cylinder water main, which runs south-north through the golf course, broke open north of Wyoming and 4th St. the week of December 19, 2016. The timeline on the repair is expected to be: the flow will be shut off for 3 weeks, the PRV will be repaired in week 4, and, as we have to wait for delivery of the valve, the valve should be installed by week 12. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATION: Emergency procurement procedures will have to be utilized to resolve this issue. A quote on the cost is pending. LEGAL REVIEW: Not applicable. BOARD AND COMMITTEE ACTION: Receive an update on the status of the water line failure at the Nancy Lopez Golf Course at Spring River. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. 7 December 20, 2016 Update from Louis Najar: A Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) on the 36" concrete cylinder water main which runs south-north in the golf course, has broken open inside the golf course just north of Wyoming and 4th St. The pressure relief valve is designed to open up and relieve pressure in the 36" water main and once pressure relief has occurred, then the valve is to close. The pressure is relieved by letting air and water out which has a drain pipe to the normally dry Spring River. In this case the valve opened and did not close and the relief valve continues to send water into the Spring River. To add to the situation, the 36" butterfly valves located upstream and downstream will not completely close. This will require "line stops" to shut off the flow to the Pressure Relieve Valve (PRV). There is only one company in New Mexico that does line stops in New Mexico and West Texas. That company is Pipeline Solutions which is part of JH Services in Albuquerque NM. Pipeline Solutions and JH Services were in town yesterday to evaluate the situation. Contractors were able to slow down the flow from the PRV, which has slowed the amount of water flowing into the Spring River. Course of Action: 1. This is an emergency repair situation and only 1 company can perform the work in this state. A determination letter from City Purchasing Agent needs to be processed and associated procedures to procure JH Services to perform repair. 2. 36" Line Stops (two) need to be installed to cut off flow on both sides to PRV. This will take 3 weeks for line stop parts and installation. What is a line stop? A supersized clamp, then you drill the top of the concrete cylinder pipe install valve vanes that will close 1 time and open 1 time, then you abandon the line stop in place in the open position so flow will continue. 3. 2- 36" valves and approximately 200' of 36" ductile pipe will be installed to allow future ability to turn off and isolate the PRV in the future. 36" butterfly valves typically take 10-12 weeks delivery. 4. Perform PRV repairs. 5. Cost is estimated $250K. JH Services is preparing formal quote, which will be reviewed and forwarded to Purchasing. Quick timeline recap. 3 weeks the flow will be shut off, 4th week the PRV will be repaired. By 12th week pending 36" valve delivery, the repair process will be completed. Please see pictures of new water features at the golf course and picture of a 42" line stop that was put in approximately 2010 on a 42" water main at S. Main/Chisum. This was also performed by JH Services. Please note the size of equipment and trenching required. The line stop clamp is installed around the pipe, then backfilled to hold the clamp for safety, then the drilling head (pictured) to cut into pipe and install the valve vanes. 8 9 10 CITY OF ROSWELL General Services Committee City Hall Conference Room 425 N.
