Jose stated that, to expedite construction by allowing room within the construction site and to protect the public from construction activities, USD is requesting that a temporary construction fence be installed along the boulevard (space between the sidewalk and the street) of North Dakota Street, parts of East Clark Street, and parts of East Cedar Street. Jose reported that the construction timeline for the addition has a start date of the first week of April 2021 and ending around July 2022. Jose reported that this item was discussed at the April 5th meeting and was tabled so that Staff could discuss options with the contractor that would provide appropriate levels of safety for vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Jose reported that after discussing the item further with USD following the April 5, 2021 City Council meeting, the contractor agreed that the sidewalks would remain open to pedestrian traffic for the duration of the project with the exception of two segments. Jose stated that at these locations the contractor will remove a segment of the existing sidewalk, place a construction fence where the old sidewalk used to be, and then construct a temporary sidewalk directly adjacent to the curb and place a plastic construction fence between the new temporary sidewalk and the curb to help delineate the space better. Jose stated that this option will remove any closure of sidewalks, or detouring necessary. Jose also reported that USD is asking for six parking stalls to be removed on the northeast corner of East Cedar and North Dakota Street. Jose noted that these stalls would be removed for the duration of the construction and would facilitate construction traffic from using the area in a safe manner. Jose reviewed a diagram of the sidewalk proposal and parking spaces removed. Discussion followed. 118-21 Alderman Willson moved approval of the request to allow USD to continue with the plan to keep the sidewalks open by relocating small sections of the existing sidewalk closer to the curb, and to temporarily remove six parking spots from the northeast corner of the East Cedar and North Dakota Street intersection.

Resolution to purchase a used garbage truck from Sanitation Products for use on the commercial recycling route James Purdy, Assistant City Manager, reported that the Commercial Recycling route has seen substantial growth in volume over the past several years. James noted that in 2018 the City picked up a total of 70 tons, and this year we are on pace to reach 95 tons. James stated that the average volume that is taken in on the commercial route has outgrown the pickup truck and trailer that the Solid Waste Department uses for the commercial recycling route. James noted that the lack of capacity with the pickup truck and trailer, often leads to employees running back and forth from the Recycling Center an average of 4-5 times per day to unload, which can prevent them from completing their route on schedule. James stated that this can result in added cost to the City, or a disruption in service, which can negatively affect the public. James reported that the City located a used truck in January, and later test drove it in February. James reported that the City has had periodic contact with the seller, and has secured an advantageous purchase price. James stated that staff believes this purchase would also position the City to handle additional growth of the commercial route volume in the future. James noted that, as the cost is less than $50,000, it can be 16 purchased without bidding. James reported that the quote from Sanitation Products, Inc for the 2009 BMC chassis and Loadmaster 6-yard rear load body for $43,700.00 is included in the packet. James reported that in 2021 the City allocated $50,000 in CARES Act funds to the curbside recycling fund. James recommended approving the resolution authorizing the purchase of the curbside collection truck. Discussion followed. 125-21 After reading the same once, Alderman Ward moved adoption of the following: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF A USED GARBAGE TRUCK WHEREAS, State statute 5-18A-22(19) allows cities to purchase equipment that cost less than $50,000 without bidding; and WHEREAS, the purchase of this truck will help the City keep up with its growing commercial recycling route; and WHEREAS, the City of Vermillion has reviewed and determined that the 2009 GMC 4500 garbage truck, from Sanitation Products Inc, of Sioux Falls, SD, for the total amount of $43,700 offers an advantageous price to the City for said item. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Governing Body of the City of Vermillion, that the City Finance Officer is hereby authorized to purchase a used 2009 GMC 4500 garbage truck from Sanitation Products Inc. of Sioux Falls, South Dakota at no more than the above stated price.

Update on Sanitary Sewer rates 18 Mike Carlson, Finance Officer, reported that the annual wastewater rate for customers is computed as a percentage of the average monthly consumption based on the January, February, and March water billing for each utility account. Mike stated that the new wastewater fee is computed and implemented in April of each year and remains the same for the next twelve months. Mike noted that, since the water usage of each account varies from year to year, wastewater fees are determined on an annual basis. Mike stated that the rationale behind using the January, February, and March water usage is that during these months there is no lawn watering or other outside use, thus all the usage is going into the sanitary sewer. Mike reported that the wastewater rates were last adjusted in April 2017 to 128% of the January, February, and March water billing. Mike stated that the rate was not changed in 2018, 2019, and 2020. Mike noted that water rates were last increased January 2017. Mike reported that the first quarter 2021 adjusted water sales revenue decreased 1.17% over the same period in 2020. Mike stated that the water revenues are adjusted to remove water sales outside the city limits that are not charged sewer. Mike reported that the projection for 2021 wastewater revenues is $2,033,500 which is $7,800 below the actual 2020 wastewater revenue of $2,041,300. Mike stated that the budgeted 2021 wastewater sales revenue is $2,107,600 and at the budgeted revenue level it was projected to add $182,687 to wastewater reserves. Mike stated that, based upon the current wastewater revenue projections, revenues will be $74,100 below the 2021 budget and will reduce the projected reserve increase to $108,587 for 2021. Mike noted that the wastewater fund reserves as of January 1, 2021 were $1,513,499 which is projected to increase based upon the 2021 budget. Mike stated that a project being considered for 2022 is the replacement of the Tom Street lift station estimated at over $764,000. Mike stated that the Tom Street lift station was estimated to be funded by applying for a Community Development Block Grant and the balance from an SRF loan. Mike noted that an option would also be to prepay two small wastewater SRF loans of just over $200,000 with annual debt service payment of over $35,000 (interest rates of 3.5% and 2.5%) to reduce the impact on the rate adjustment needed for the Tom Street lift station project. Mike reported that the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) is estimated to provide the City with $1,858,000 of funding. Mike noted that some of the options for use of the funding includes funding to replenish reserves used to offset revenue declines during the pandemic and investment in water and sewer infrastructure. Mike stated that information is still evolving on the use the ARPA funds and we will continue to monitor options available to the city. Mike stated that, in light of what is going on at this time, Administration is not recommending any change in wastewater rates as the current revenue projections will 19 increase the year end reserve. Mike stated that the wastewater revenues will need to be monitored to ensure debt service requirements are met. Mike recommended no change in the current wastewater rates at this time. 128-21 Alderman Hellwege moved to acknowledge receipt of the report on wastewater rates with no change to be made to the rates at this time.
