Approve KLM’s Proposal for Reconditioning Services for the Chippendale Water Tower, City Project 2019- 02.docx EXECUTIVE SUMMARY City Council Regular Meeting: September 18, 2018 AGENDA ITEM: Approve KLM’s Proposal for Reconditioning Services for the Chippendale Water Tower, City Project 2019-02 AGENDA SECTION: Consent PREPARED BY: Brian Erickson, PE, Director of Public Works/City Engineer AGENDA NO. 6.i. ATTACHMENTS: Proposal for Chippendale Tower Reconditioning APPROVED BY: LJM RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion Approving KLM’s Proposal for Reconditioning Services for the Chippendale Water Tower, City Project 2019-02. BACKGROUND As part of the City of Rosemount’s ongoing maintenance program the 2018 Water Fund budget included funding for Inspection and Maintenance. A portion of the estimated cost from the long range plan included $500,000 for exterior painting and $150,000 for interior painting of the Chippendale Water Tower. This tower was last coated in 2004, and is due for scheduled maintenance in order to protect the City’s infrastructure investment. DISCUSSION The Chippendale Water Tower was constructed in 1972 and has been regularly maintained since that time. The interior of the tank was last coated in 1992 and then spot repaired in 2004. The exterior was fully recoated in 2004. In 2014, KLM performed a routine inspection of the tank and noted that the interior was in good condition with the exception of a few small failure areas. KLM noted that the exterior coating is in good to excellent condition. Some areas of the roof exhibited some failures which could lead to coating degradation. In addition, KLM recommended that the exterior of the tank be power washed to remove dirt and mildew. Finally, it was recommended that the tank be recoated within the next 1-3 years (2015 – 2017). The coatings, if properly installed and inspected, should last a minimum of 20 years. As part of the long range maintenance plan for the water system, the Chippendale Tower was programmed to be recoated in 2018; however, due to a variety of reasons the actual recoating will be performed in 2019. The interior coating will then be 27 years old and the exterior coating will be 15 years old. Performing both in 2019 will allow the work to be completed by draining the tower once, and put both coatings on the same inspection and maintenance time line. In order to prepare for this work, staff contacted KLM to request a proposal to perform design, construction management and construction observation. KLM performed the 2014 inspection of the Chippendale Water Tower and as a result, is familiar with the maintenance and repair needed for this tank. KLM is also part of the City’s pool of consultants and has been performing work in Rosemount since the late 1990s. 2 The proposed timeline for this project is shown below: • October 19, 2018 – Preliminary specifications completed. • November 2, 2018 – Design services completed. • November 5, 2018 – Bidding authorized. • Late 2018 – Award contract for reconditioning. • Summer 2019 – Construction completed. • Summer 2021 – Warranty inspection completed. The estimated costs and funding for this project are detailed below: For the 2019 budget, staff is requesting an additional $50,000 be added to the exterior coating line item in order to cover the current estimated cost as well as updating the logo. KLM’s proposal is attached to this report. The City Attorney is in the process of reviewing the terms and conditions. Staff presented this item to the Utility Commission at their September 17, 2018 meeting. As part of that presentation, staff requested the Commission recommend the City Council accept this proposal and enter into an agreement with KLM. Staff will confirm this recommendation at the Council meeting. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends Council accept KLM’s proposal and enter into an agreement for reconditioning services for the Chippendale Water Tower, City Project 2019-02.

KLM’s in-house engineering staff exemplifies the “Rules of Professional Conduct” as described in chapter 1805 by the Board of Engineering. Our structural engineering department ensures your water tower will meet AWWA, OSHA, and MDH Codes and Standards during specification writing and throughout the project. When it comes to quality inspections on water storage tanks, KLM sets the standard that other companies try to duplicate. KLM has a staff with the most credentials associated with AWS welding and NACE coating inspections of water storage tanks in the five-state area. Ensuring a project is completed according to the project specifications, codes, and standards is critical for a successful project. Our dedication to quality gained national attention with two of our tower projects being recognized as first and second runner up for the 2017 Tnemec Tank of the Year Contest. Both towers are featured in the 2018 Tnemec Calendar. City of St. Cloud, Minnesota: Runner- Up City of Eden Prairie, Minnesota: 2nd Runner- Up Project: KLM & Landmark Structures Project: KLM & Classic Protective Coatings   Copyright 2018 by KLM Engineering, Inc. Page 2   Our inspections are performed by a professional staff with current and proper credentials. Our inspectors who, work directly under our Structural Engineer and Project Supervisor are certified as both NACE and AWS inspectors. Each employee takes ownership of their project. Our professional staff has a combined 150 years of experience and have successfully completed over 450 rehabilitations of water tanks of various sizes. The KLM staff is fluent in the current codes and standards for new and reconditioned water tower projects. KLM inspectors accept or reject the workmanship of the day. The main reason owners hire a professional consultant is to protect the owner’s investment. The average tank without a professional inspection usually needs to be repaired after fifteen years compared to KLM projects, which are lasting 22 or more years. No firm receives respect from tank contractors and subcontractors like KLM. Our role is to provide quality assurance and enforce the specification. KLM is very thorough with our documentation of what and how the work is being performed each day. KLM’s reputation of quality is second to none. We stand behind every project we work on. KLM would like to assist you with our expertise on quality control which will make this a successful project for many years to come. By selecting KLM, you can be assured that the project will be completed to your satisfaction. We look forward to working with you. Sincerely, KLM Engineering, Inc.

KLM met with city Engineer Brian Erickson to get a full understanding of the project and expectations. The current coating system on the interior wet was previously spot repaired and the exterior coating system is experiencing coating delamination, chalking, and fading. A full reconditioning of the Interior Wet and the Exterior of the tower is recommended to protect the structure and bring it in compliance with OSHA, AWWA, and Minnesota Department of Health codes. KLM will include the updated logo in the specification that is provided by the city. The contractor will submit the logo and lettering, including colors for approval by KLM and the City of Rosemount. Key project team members were brought together to review the 2014 evaluation report and additional records maintained by KLM to identify the scope of work required to meet the needs of the City of Rosemount. Benefits to the City of Rosemount  Today’s protective coating systems are designed to last 20-25 years with only minor maintenance. Tight project specifications and full-time inspections give the coating systems the opportunity to realize their intended service life.  KLM proposes to prepare a specification package specifically designed for water tower reconditioning. Our experience has shown that the more comprehensive the specification is, the more likely it is that the project is completed on time, on budget, with quality workmanship. The KLM specifications will mitigate requests for change orders during reconditioning.  Welding and full time NACE Coating Inspections during reconditioning assures that the work performed by the contractor is in conformance with the specifications, as to maximize its life expectancy. KLM’s inspectors monitor workmanship during all phases of work to verify the contractor’s work meets the specification. Utilizing this process, maintenance costs will be reduced by decreasing the number of reconditioning cycles over the life of the tank.  Our project administration and inspection services provide a buffer between the project specifications and the real-world challenges that can negatively affect project performance. To initiate the project correctly, KLM’s project management assures that a qualified contractor is retained at an appropriate cost. 2 City of Rosemount Ex: MIP Tower KLM Work Plan Upon execution of a contract, KLM proposes the following schedule to perform the work: City of Rosemount council approval: 1.
