BACKGROUND On June 7, 2016, Council awarded the Automated Meter Infrastructure (AMI) contract to Delta Engineering Sales, LLC. in the amount of $7,181,782. On May 2, 2017, the City Council authorized an amendment to the contract in the amount of $950,000, increasing the total contract value to $8,131,782. The completion of the AMI project has alleviated the need for bi-monthly manual water meter reading and provides automated water consumption data points for the project water meters. Project completion was accepted by Council on December 19, 2017, however, the retention payment to Delta Engineering Sales, LLC was inadvertently omitted from the project closing process. DISCUSSION The AMI project replaced or retrofitted every water meter under the control of the Pleasanton Water Utilities with the exception of Kilkare Canyon, which is geographically/topographically incompatible with this technology, and Castlewood, which is being replaced under a separate project with Alameda County, with Aclara MTUs and composite meter box lids. The project included the replacement of 21,192 water meters with the latest non-mechanical meter technologies from Diehl Metering, Kampstrup, and Elster, and the retrofitting of 581 existing newer mechanical meters, for a total of 21,773 AMI compatible meters. Budget The final retention release invoice in the amount of $73,919.28 in Attachment 1 to this report, will be deducted from the remaining available project budget balance of $186,294.43 with the resulting balance of $112,375.15 to be returned to the Water Enterprise Fund.
