SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The McCall Water System’s current 5–10-year capital improvement plan (CIP) stipulates the need to complete major capacity upgrades to both the system’s water treatment plant (WTP) as
well as additional system storage. Specifically, there are two major project elements:
2-million-gallon water storage tank
Water Treatment Plant (WTP) capacity expansion
Both projects were identified in the DEQ approved Water Master Plan (2018) and need to be implemented in the next 5 years to ensure the City’s system maintains DEQ’s permit requirements
to operate the system. Since 2021, staff has a developed a project consulting team including AE2S (lead project engineer), Clear Solutions (supporting engineer), and Bowen Collins (water
system and rate modeling engineer) to commence conceptual and preliminary engineering designs. Our work has established the preferred storage tank location and the necessary filtration
and associated WTP expansion components for both projects.
This work session will present our design work (to date) for both projects; we will present the overall project implementation schedule and estimate costs; and we will present the projected
impact on water rates. Included are presentation slides (provided by AE2S) and a presentation outline. This presentation will be Part 1 of a 2-part work session.
Additionally, the session will discuss the necessity and options for securing bonding authority for the approximately $14-15M needed to fund the projects within the forecasted timeline.
City staff, representatives from all consulting firms and the City’s municipal financial advisor (Zion’s Bank) and Bond Council (Skinner Fawcett) will be present to discuss the items
as a first formal touch with the City Council.
