S P R I N G F I E L D C I T Y C O U N C I L Council Goals: Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities ITEM TITLE: INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT (IGA) WITH SPRINGFIELD UTILITY
BOARD (SUB) FOR WATER TRANSMISSION LINE
ACTION
REQUESTED:
Approve or reject the following motion:
AUTHORIZE AND DIRECT THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN
IGA WITH SUB FOR CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE OF AN
UNDERGROUND WATER TRANSMISSION LINE FROM S 28TH STREET TO S 7TH AND B STREET
ISSUE STATEMENT:
In discussions with the City of Springfield, SUB learned of potential efficiencies by
constructing an underground water transmission line across City owned property.
ATTACHMENTS: 1. IGA with referenced exhibits.
DISCUSSION/ FINANCIAL
IMPACT:
SUB desires an easement over a portion of City of Springfield property in order to
construct and maintain an underground water transmission line. The use of City
property would reduce the cost of the SUB facility and would benefit Springfield residents. This project is also being coordinated with Willamalane Park and
Recreation District, since the SUB construction will provide a subgrade for a
portion of the Mill Race path they intend to construct. Efficient and effective water services are high priorities for the City and SUB. Approval and completion of this
project will maintain Springfield water quality standards and ensure consistent availability of water.
The City Attorney’s Office has approved the attached IGA and staff recommends the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the IGA.
