Subject: Morris Packaging Rail Spur Project Update
City staff wou ld like to update the Committee concern ing the status of the Morris Packag ing Ra il Spur
project and to make them aware that a resolut ion concu rring with the selected contractor will be
appearing on the upcoming Council agenda .
In September of 2013 the City and County entered an agreement with the County to share in the cost of
a sewer extension and a rail spur extension to serve the Morris Packaging fac ility on Algoa Road. The
orig inal agreement outlined an even cost share between the City and County, however, a later
amendment to the agreement set the limits of the total contribut ions to $10,000 for the sewer and
$250 ,000 for the rail spur. The City's share would be one ha lf of those amounts being $5 ,000 and
$125 ,000 respective ly .
In the intervening time modifications were required for the rail spur to meet the requirements of Union
Pacific resulting in cost that were higher than originally considered . Ultimately the project was
advertised and bids were received by the County on March 29 1h . The low bid was submitted by
Railworks Track Services, Inc. for a total cost of $373,210 . Per the agreement Morris Packaging is
responsible for $79,801 .92 leaving the City/County portion of the construction contract at $293,408.08 .
In addition to th is amount $41 ,935 has been spent for the design of the project bringing the total
City/County contribution to $335,543.08 .
Splitting this evenly would create a City liability of $167 ,771 .54 , however, because of the limits set forth
in the agreement addendum and because the County has unspent joint City/County project funds from
the previous sales ta x cycle amounting to $212,171 .78 , the County has proposed to cover all costs of
t he project above the C ity's $125,000 contribution .
Th e City's portion will be funded by monies that were taken from the contingency f unds of sales tax E.
A resolution requesting the Council 's concurrence in awarding the bid for this project to Railworks Track
Services , Inc. will appear of the April 151h Council Agenda .
If you have any questions I can be reached at 634-6433 .

Public Works & Planning Council Committee -April 11, 2019
Proposed Bill for Electrical and Plumbing Licenses Modifications
This bill is being presented to the committee for their consideration for approval to present it to
the full City Council. The bill affects the licensing of electricians and plumbers within the City of
Jefferson. The modifications have been discussed with the Electrical and Plumbing Licensing
Boards over the past few years. These changes would provide better protection of the public
and increase the professional status of these trades.
The proposed bill was mailed out to all Jefferson City licensed electrical contractors (77) and
plumbing contractors (46). We received only one positive comment from that mailing and
nothing negative. It was then voted on by both licensing boards that approved the bill for it to
continue the legislative process. We also emailed the bill out to a list of interested Building
Regulations stakeholders (100+) for comments and again only received positive comments,
nothing negative.
What prompted this bill at this time were a couple of recent incidents. They were:
1. Plumbers and excavators have overlapping work when installing sanitary and storm
sewer systems outside of a structure. This creates disputes between these trades on
big projects and does cause contract and code enforcement issues.
2. A licensed plumbing contractor recently damaged a structure by accidently flooding the
basement twice. The contractor did not have any liability insurance so the owner is
suing the contractor for damage recovery.
To help clarify and improve these licensing requirements, the bill recommends changing the
following:
City Code Section 8-3 -.Electrical
1. Adds the requirement for proof of insurance for $500,000 general liability and state
required workers compensation. We are currently not requiring any proof of insurance.
2. Introduced renewable individual licenses on a 3 year basis in lieu of issuing permanent
licenses. This will allow us to know how many active licenses there are and to have
current contact information of licensees for notifications.
City Code Section 8-5 -Plumbing
1. Clarified work limits of what needs to be done by a licensed plumbing contractor.
2. Changes the surety bond requirement from $2,000 to $5,000. This bond is for the City
of Jefferson in case work in the right-of-way is left incomplete.
3. Adds the requirement for proof of insurance for $500,.000 general liability and state
required workers compensation. We are currently not requiring proof of any insurance.
4. Clarified that proof of a journeyman license is a prerequisite to obtain a master's license.
5. Introduced renewable individual licenses on a 3 year basis in lieu of issuing permanent
licenses. This will allow us to know how many active licenses there are and to have
current contact information of licensees for notifications.
City Code Appendix Y
1. Added fees for renewals of individual licenses to cover administrative costs.
City staff recommends approval of this bill.

The attached proposed bill is being distributed for comments to Jefferson City licensed electrical
and plumbing contractors. It affects contractor licensing requirements within the City of
Jefferson . These proposed modifications have been discussed with the Electrical and Plumbing
Licensing Boards over the past few years .
The proposed bill would make the following changes :
City Code Section 8-3 -Electrical

required workers' compensation .
2. Implements the start of renewable individual licenses on a 3 year basis in lieu of issuing
permanent licenses .

Mr. Burkhardt,

We have reviewed the proposed changes and find them acceptable. They are in keeping with
other City's that are licensing Apprentices, Journeyman, and Masters.
By the way, I would recommend an application fee for any class, obviously graduated to defer
some of your administrative costs .

Subject: Re: Proposed Bill for Jefferson City Electrical and Plumbing Contractors
Larry,
After a quick review of the documents, I agree with the proposal and think the licensing board should require a certain
amount of "continuing education" in order to renew licenses. This will help keep electrical and plumbing professionals up
to speed on both code changes and technology Improvements.
Thank for the opportunity to contribute.

RE: Proposed Bill for Jefferson City Electrical and Plumbing Contractors
1 did see this and discussed it with the management here. We are glad to see it. I think it is a good idea to renew every
three years as others do. Increase funding to the dept, as well as keep individuals current. I personally think this cleans
things up and helps us all.
