THIS COMES FROM LANE YOUNG DIRECTOR OF UTILITIES.
LANE. >> GOOD MORNING AGAIN, BOARD.
SO WITH THE FLOOD, THIS WORK, WE GOT THEM ON-BOARD RIGHT AWAY.
SO THEY'VE ALREADY BEEN DOING QUITE A BIT OF WORK.
WE KIND OF EMERGENT NEEDED TO GET IT GOING.
THIS IS WHEN WE WERE CONCERNED ABOUT THE TWO FORCE MAINS BEING BREACHED AND US DUMPING ALL OF MOST OF OUR SEWAGE INTO THE OPEN WATERS THERE. THIS CONTRACT, THERE IS STILL A LITTLE BIT OF WORK, BUT MOST OF THIS WE PROBABLY SPENT ABOUT HALF OF THIS-- I DON'T THINK WE'RE GOING TO NEED THE FULL AMOUNT. THIS IS A NOT TO EXCEED NUMBER, BUT THERE WERE SOME TECHNICAL SCANS DONE THAT WE ARE NOW GETTING THE RESULTS OF THOSE. SO THE FORCE MAIN THEMSELVES WERE IN GOOD SHAPE, BUT THE INTERNAL, WE WEREN'T SURE.
SO WE HAD TO DO PRETTY SPECIALIZED TESTING WHAT IS THE INTEGRITY ON THE INSIDE OF THESE PIPES.
ALSO THERE IS THE REROUTING OF BLUE RIDGE CREEK.
WE AREN'T SURE WHETHER THAT WILL HAPPEN.
THERE WILL BE WORK INVOLVING THESE MAINS AS WELL.
SO THIS INTEREST IS TO GET US THROUGH THE END OF THAT AND MAKE
SURE WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE DOING. >> THE CHAIR: SURE.
ANY QUESTIONS OR A MOTION. >> MOTION TO APPROVE.
>> JEKD. >> THE CHAIR: ALL IN FAVOUR.
AYE, THE MOTION CARRIES. LANE YOU ARE UP HERE FOR A
[00:10:02]
I FEEL LIKE BRAD TODAY. >> THE CHAIR: 5 (F) IS REQUEST FOR PURCHASE OF GOODS AND SERVICES, AVENUENEC ROADS INCOMPETENT CORPORATED IN THE AMOUNT OF 15,515,000.
B.O.T. AGREEMENT. PHASE 2, LANE?
>> THANK YOU. SO THIS IS-- WE CAME BACK WERE TOGETHER TO PRESENT ALL THE WORK THAT IS BEING DONE IN MERCHANT SQUARE. THIS IS OUR FIRST REAL PROJECT IN THERE AND THIS IS REPLACING ABOUT-- YOU LOOK IN THERE ABOUT 8,000 LINEAR FEET OF SEWER MAINS STARTING AT RANGELINE.
GOING DOWN MEDICAL DRIVE, COMING AROUND TRIPLE-A WAY AND BACK UP KEY STONE WAY. IT'S A 12-INCH RIGHT NOW AND IT'S PRETTY MUCH AT OR SOMETIMES GET SURCHARGED IN RAIN EVENTS.
SO WE'RE GOING TO UPSIZE THAT TO AN 18-INCH.
MOST OF THIS IS 25 FEET DEEP. IT'S PRETTY DEEP PIPE.
THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF COMPLEXITY IN THIS.
IN ADDITION THIS ALSO INCLUDES REPLACING ABOUT 2,600 LINEAR FEET OF WATER MAIN BECAUSE WE FIGURED IF WE'RE IN THERE ESPECIALLY ALONG MEDICAL DRIVE AND THIS IS MUCH OLDER WATER MAIN, I DON'T WANT ANYBODY MAD AT ME A YEAR LATER WHEN I HAVE TO DIG BRAD'S ROAD UP. WE'LL DO IT ALL AT ONE TIME.
I WILL MAKE ONE NOTE. THE 15.5, IT'S ACTUALLY-- IT BREAKS DOWN A LITTLE DIFFERENTLY.
LET ME GIVE YOU THESE NUMBERS. I DON'T KNOW IF WE NEED TO MAKE ANY CHANGES OR NOT. THE TOTALLY PRICE IS 14,092,150.
IN ADDITION WE HAVE AND OWNER ESCONTENGENCE GEE THAT WE CONTROL OF 15 OR 1,515,000. SO THE TOTAL WOULD THE G.M.P.
MAX PRICE PLUS OUR CONTINGENCY IS $15,607,150.
SO THE G.M. MUCHMUSIC P.M. IS .IT PUSHES IT OVER THAT.
>> THE CHAIR: DO WE NEED TO ADJUST ANYTHING?
>> YEAH. I THINK IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO ADJUST THAT NUMBER SINCE THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE OF ABOUT $85,000. WE MIGHT NOT USE THAT AMOUNT ALL THE WAY UP TO 156-- I THINK JUST TO HAVE THAT ABLE WITHOUT US COMING BACK TO POTENTIALLY WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA.
SO I THINK THE MOTION WOULD BE TO JUST TO AMEND THE TOTAL AMOUNT FROM 15,515,000 TO 15,605,000.
EVERYTHING ELSE REMAINS THE SAME.
>> THE CHAIR: OKAY. ALL RIGHT.
SO ANY QUESTIONS OR A MOTION TO AMEND?
>> MAKE THE MOTION TO AMEND THE TOTAL AMOUNT TO 15,607,150.
>> SECOND. >> THE CHAIR: ALL IN FAVOUR.
>> TOGETHER: A. >> THE CHAIR: MOTION CARRIES.
NOW WE WILL APPROVE THE REQUESTED-- THE AMENDED AMOUNT.
>> MOVE TO APPROVE. >> SECOND.
>> THE CHAIR: ALL IN FAVOUR. >> TOGETHER: A.
>> THE CHAIR: MOTION CARRIES. THANK YOU.
5 (G) IS A REQUEST FOR PURCHASE OF GOODS AND SERVICES, COMPASS MINERALS AMERICA INCORPORATED IN THE AMOUNT OF $962,500. 2027 ROCK SALT.
LEAP? >> THIS IS FOR OUR ANNUAL SOFTENING THAT WE DO AT OUR PLANTS.
WE PUT THIS QUOTE OUT. I THINK WE RECEIVED QUOTES OR BIDS EARLIER IN AUGUST. COMPASS WAS THE LOWEST BID.
MOST RESPONSIVE BIDDER. I RECOGNIZE THIS IS OUR ANNUAL AMOUNT OF SALT THAT WE USE. IIT'S ABOUT 7,000 TONS.
WE DO QUITE A BIT. WE'RE UNUSUAL IN THAT WAY.
NOT MANY UTILITIES SOFTEN-- PRESOFTEN THE WATER.
MOST OF THAT ENDS UP FALLING ON HOMEOWNERS, BUT IT DOES VALUE US IN YOUR PIPES AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM SO IT'S WORTH THE
INVESTMENT. >> THE CHAIR: SO DOES IT REMAIN THE SAME AMOUNT THROUGHOUT THE YEAR OR DOES THAT AMOUNT OF SALT THAT IS USED GET ADJUSTED?
>> IT WILL GET ADJUSTED BASED ON USAGE, RIGHT.
IT DEPENDS ON HOW MUCH WE'RE PUMPING.
WE'RE PRETTY CONSISTENT IN THE VOLUME OF WATER THAT WE PRODUCE EACH YEAR. SO IT WILL-- IT MIGHT FLUCTUATE A LITTLE BIT. IT WILL BE AT THAT 137.50 PER TON, HOW MANY TONS THEY END UP DELIVERING IS WHAT WE'LL PAY.
>> THE CHAIR: OKAY. ALL RIGHT.
[00:15:02]
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. OKAY.>> LANE, JUST-- ALL OF THE WATER IS SOFTENED IN THESE-- WHAT CARMEL WATER SYSTEM? IIT'S DISTRIBUTED TO EACH
RESIDENT, IS THAT CORRECT. >> THAT'S CORRECT.
THERE IS THE HARDNESS OF THE GROUNDWATER.
A LOT OF METALS IN THERE. IRON AND OTHER.
SO WE DO A LITTLE BIT OF PRESOFTENNING AND TAKE THAT HARDNESS, AND I DON'T HAVE THAT OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD.
WE TAKE IT DOWN, I THINK, TO ABOUT 8 TO 10 GRAINS OF HARDNESS. MOST PEOPLE LIKE IT A LITTLE SOFTER. MOST PEOPLE HAVE THEIR OWN SOFTENING AT HOME. THAT THEN TAKES IT DOWN TO A FURTHER LEVEL OF SOFTNESS DEPENDING ON WHAT THEY WANT.
IF THEY DON'T WANT SPOTS ON THEIR GLASSES IN THE DISHWASHERS, THEY MIGHT ADD A LITTLE BIT MORE AND IF THEY DON'T MIND THEM, THEY MIGHT HAVE LESS.
>> SO THAT IS THE KEY THERE IS THAT IT'S SOFTENED, BUT IF YOU WANT IT MORE SOFTENED, THAT IS...
>> THE CHAIR: ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR A MOTION?
>> MOVE TO APPROVE. >> I WILL SECOND.
>> THE CHAIR: ALL IN FAVOUR. >> TOGETHER: AYE.
>> THE CHAIR: MOTION CARRIES. 5 (H) IS A REQUEST FOR PURCHASE OF GOODS AND SERVICES, FULL CARE OF INDIANAPOLIS L.L.C.
IN THE AMOUNT OF $135,512. 2027 AND 2028 MOWING AND LANDSCAPE. LANE?
>> SO THIS IS OUR ANNUAL MAINTENANCE AT ALL OF OUR PROPERTIES ON THE WATER PLANT. OUR FOUR PLANTS PLUS OUR WELLS, VARIOUS WORK. THERE IS QUITE A BIT THAT THEY DO. FULL CARE THEY WON THE 2026, AND WE GOT QUOTES EARLIER THIS YEAR, AND THERE ARE ONLY TWO INTERESTED PARTIES. THE OTHER INTERESTED PARTY WAS ABOUT 20,000 HIGHER THAN WHAT THEY WERE FOR THIS YEAR.
THEY WERE WILLING TO GIVE US LOCKED IN PRICE FOR 27 AND 28 WITH JUST A 3% INCREASE IN 27 AND NO INCREASE IN 28.
SO WE DECIDED THAT BASED ON THE INTEREST WE HAD PREVIOUSLY AND THEN WINNING THE BID BY 20. THAT THIS MADE SENSE TO GO WITH THEM AND LOCK THIS PRICE IN. SO I REMEMBER THAT WE APPROVE
>> I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE. >> SECOND.
>> THE CHAIR: ALL IN FAVOUR. AYE.
5 (I) IS A REQUEST FOR PURCHASE OF GOODS AND SERVICES.
NATIONAL WATER SERVICES LLC IN THE AMOUNT OF NEGATIVE 50,362
FOR WELL NUMBER 29. >> THIS IS FOR OUR NEW WELL, WELL 9 INSTALLED AND IN SERVICE FOR ALL OF ABOUT A MONTH UNTIL THE FLOOD HIT. SO IT'S WAITING TO GO.
IT WANTS TO DRAW WATER FROM US. IT WANTS TO GET IT OUT, BUT IT'S JUST GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT. BUT THIS IS A CHANGE ORDER.
FINAL CHANGE ORDER ON THAT PROJECT.
THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE SAVINGS IS THEY HAD PUT IN THERE SOME ELECTRICAL SERVICES THAT WE WERE ABLE TO DO OURSELF AS WELL AS AES MAKES YOU PUT IN AN AMOUNT, THEY DIDN'T CHARGE US FOR THIS PROJECT AN INSTALLATION FEES. THOSE ARE THE TWO MAIN ITEMS
THAT WE SAVED MONEY ON. >> THE CHAIR: I'M NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE CAMERA.
I DON'T NEED IT. >> THE CHAIR: YEAH.
>> I'M NOT SURE WHY-- >> THE CHAIR: ANY QUESTIONS OR
>> MOVE TO APPROVE. >> THE CHAIR: ALL IN FAVOUR, AYE. MOTION CARRIES, AND 5 (J) REQUEST FOR PURCHASE OF GOODS AND SERVICES, YARBERRY COMPANIES INCORPORATED IN THE AMOUNT OF 410,475,000 FOR THE SIX-INCH WATER MAIN 96TH STREET FLOOD REPAIR.

WE'RE HOPING TO HAVE IT IN BEFORE WINTER SO THAT WE CAN REMOVE THOSE FIRE HOSES AND HAVE WATER BACK TO THE PLANT.
SO WE WILL GET WITH THE PRE-CONSTRUCTION MEETING PRETTY QUICKLY AND GET THIS PROJECT STARTED.

>> MOTION TO APPROVE. >> JEKD.

[00:20:01]
>> TOGETHER: AYE. >> THE CHAIR: THE MOTION CARRIES. 7, OTHER.
CONCEPT TO ENCROACH SKYED SIGNEF BY BRAD PEASE.

THEY CHECK AGAINST WHETHER THAT WOULD BE A DRAINAGE ISSUE IT MIGHT CAUSE OR OTHER UTILITY CONTACT AND BOTH OF THEM ARE CLEARED BY OUR TEAM SO RECOMMEND THAT YOU APPROVE THOSE.

MOTION FOR 7 (A) AND (C). >> COUNTY JUDGE: I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE 7 (A) AND (C).

>> THE CHAIR: MOTION PASSES. 8, ADD-ONS AND DEPARTMENT DIRECTOR COMMENTS. ARE THERE ANY DEPARTMENT DIRECTORS WHO WANT TO SPEAK, NO. WE WILL ADDRESS THE ADD-ON WHICH IS THE SPECIAL EVENT FOR NOVEMBER 6TH, 2026.
WE HAD PREVIOUSLY APPROVED THE DATE OF OCTOBER 24, 2026 AND THE REQUEST IS TO CHANGE IT TO NOVEMBER 6TH.
SO SINCE THIS HAS ALREADY PREVIOUSLY BEEN APPROVED, IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION OR A MOTION TO APPROVE?
>> MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE. >> SECOND.
>> THE CHAIR: ALL IN FAVOUR. >> TOGETHER: AYE.
>> THE CHAIR: MOTION CARRIES. NO OTHER BUSINESS SO WE ARE ADJOURNED. ACTUALLY.
WAIT WELL. >> GO BACK TO DIRECTOR COMMENTS.
I WILL LET YOU KNOW THAT WILL COME OUT SOON, THE 116 HOOVER ROUND-ABOUT THAT WE STARTED ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO, THERE WAS A VERY TIGHT TIMELINE TO GET THAT DONE.
THE ORIGINAL SCHEDULE-- THEY'RE LOOKING TO PAVE IN THE FIRST WEEK OF DECEMBER WHICH IS ALREADY A LITTLE BIT RISKY, BUT THERE IS SOME WIGGLE ROOM THERE. JUST A LITTLE BIT OF A DELAY OF A WEEK-AND-A-HALF CAUSED THAT PAVING SCHEDULE FOR DECEMBER 22ND. WE HAVE PAVED ON DECEMBER 22ND AND 23RDIN THE PAST, BUT ANY MINOR A WEEK OF SNOW WOULD HAVE RUINED THAT. TEMPERATURES THAT ARE TOO COLD WOULD HAVE PREVENTED THAT. WE WOULD HAVE HAD A ROAD THAT WOULD HAVE STAYED CLOSED OR HAD ISSUES FROM JANUARY TO MARCH WHEN THE PLANT IS OPEN AND WE CAN PAVE AGAIN.
A LITTLE BIT TOO HIGH RISK IN COORDINATION WITH OUR CONTRACTOR. BETTER TO OPEN THAT ROAD MAP BACK UP NOW. IT WILL OPEN NEXT MONDAY AND THEN COME BACK IN THE SPRING AND FINISH IT.
THEY DID AS MUCH WORK AS THEY DO IN THE THREE WEEKS.
THAT WAY THE CLOSURE IN THE SPRING CAN BE A LITTLE BIT SHORTER. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DELAY THIS ONE. NOT GOOD NEWS BUT FOR A GOOD
PRODUCT IN THE END, RIGHT CALL. >> THE CHAIR: DECEMBER IS TO UNPREDICTABLE HERE SO THAT MAKES SENSE.
I APPRECIATE THE UPDATE. AND WE HAVE NO OTHER B
