SUBJECT:
Riverside Community Building Rental Fee Increase
BRIEF SUMMARY:
The fees for rental of the Riverside Community Building are very low compared to rental rates for similar facilities in the
County, and currently do not provide sufficient income to cover the costs of maintenance, operations, attendant fees or
repairs. The proposed rental fees are a better reflection of the costs associated with the use of the building, and include a
damage deposit that will hold renters of the facility more accountable for any damages or misuse of the building. The new
Rental Fee Policy also includes language that clarifies issues relating to how the building may be used. The existing fees
are also attached.
RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:
Approval of the new Rental Fee Policy for the Riverside Community Building, effective for all future reservations. Existing
fees and policy will apply to existing confirmed reservations.

SUBJECT:
Award of Bid and Approval of Contract # 05-0233 for MOSCAD SCADA Upgrade for Water and
Sewer Telemetry System and Approval of Budget Amendment 06-0007
BRIEF SUMMARY:
The District, as you are aware, uses a telemetry system to monitor such facilities as pump stations. The upgrade of the
MOSCAD SCADA Telemetry System was included in the adopted budget. A budget amendment is attached as part of this
package to transfer the additional funds necessary to award the contract.
In preparation of the bid specifications, the Engineering Department researched the operation of the system and what
functionality for the upgrade was needed to meet operational expectations. The current system is a Motorola System and
therefore any upgrade is restricted to the Motorola product. A significant part of the project was to provide adequate
software and equipment to split the existing MOSCAD SCADA network into three separate frequencies.
Two proposals were received. The low bidder, Lord and Company, Inc. in Fort Mill, South Carolina, submitted a bid of
$216,273.00. Coastal Electronics, Inc., a local company, submitted a bid in the amount of $277,558.00. The Engineering
department thoroughly reviewed the bid proposals from both companies and has determined that the proposal from the low
bidder does not provide adequate equipment and labor to split the existing MOSCAD SCADA network into three separate
frequencies as required. In addition, the proposal does not provide adequate software and software licenses to address the
operational requirements as specified. Furthermore, the delivery and completion time frame was six months for Lord and
Company and with Coastal it was three months. Therefore, the Engineering Department has determined that the proposal
from Lord and Company, Inc. is nonresponsive.
As a result, staff recommends award to Coastal Electronics, Inc., the lowest responsive bidder, in the amount of
$277,558.00.
RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:
Recommend adoption of the resolution to:
1. award bid 05-0233 to Coast Electronics, Inc.
2. approve contract 05-0233 and authorize the County Manager to execute contract on behalf of
the District
3. approve budget amendment 06-0007

contract.

Water & Sewer Item #: 4Estimated Time:Page Number:
Department: Water & Sewer District Presenter: Greg Thompson

SUBJECT:
Approval of a temporary private lift station in lieu of gravity sewer to serve the proposed
Saylor's Watch Development (formerly proposed as Emmart Place Development located at
4717, 4718, and 4722 South College Road)
BRIEF SUMMARY:
The subject proposed development consists of new townhouses between Still Meadow Village (to the south) and The
Vineyard Church (to the north). The sewer system within Still Meadow Village is privately owned. Still Meadow Village has
not agreed to transfer ownership to the District to provide the subject development sewer service through their currently
privately permitted system. Gravity sewer at the Vineyard Church is too shallow to be extended to the subject development.
The District's regional sewer development plan is to build out gravity sewer from the Johnson Farms area (to the west).
However, the construction of two subdivisions must be completed before the system would be accessible for extension to
Saylor's Watch.
The developer of Saylor's Watch requests approval to design, permit and construct a private collection system and a
temporary private lift station to pump to the County sewer. When gravity sewer is available through Johnson Farms, the
developer will abandon the lift station and connect to County sewer as directed by the District.
RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:
Staff recommends that the District accept the flow and conditionally approve construction of a private sewer and temporary
private lift station.

SUBJECT:
Award of Contract # 05-0304 for Westbay Interconnector Water System Expansion
BRIEF SUMMARY:
In 2003, New Hanover County awarded a contract for the construction of water lines that connected various elements of the
District's water system to improve water quality, flow, and pressure.
An additional 16-inch water line was subsequently designed to connect the Ogden Water Tower site to the District's two
new wells at the proposed site of the District's future Water Treatment Plant in the Greenview Ranches area off Diane
Drive. Modeling indicates that this new water line should increase water pressure in the District's system from Ogden to
Porters Neck on the Highway 17 North corridor.
On June 29, 2005 bids were received for the new line and associated connections to wells and other water lines in the
immediate vicinity. The successful bid was $953,300 by T.A. Loving Company. The associated budget amendment is
required to cover the expense.
RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:
Staff recommends award of the contract to T. A. Loving in the amount of $953,300 and request approval of the associated
budget amendment. Also, please authorized the Chairman of the Water and Sewer District to execute the contract.
