REVIEW THE UPDATED JASPER SEWER EXTINSION PROJECT SHEET. 2. CONDUCT A PUBLIC HEARING AND ADOPT/NOT ADOPT THE UPDATED JASPER SEWER EXTENSION PROJECT, AMENDING lHE CURRENTLY ADOPTED FIVE-YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM. ISSUE STATEMEN:T: The City of Springfield 2008-2012 Capital Improvement Program - A Community Reinvestment Plan, has been adopted by the City Council; however given recent developments, it is prudent to update the Jasper Road Sewer Extension project sheet to reflect current needs, ATTACHMENTS: Attachment A: Updated Jasper Road Sewer Extension project sheet Attachment B: Original Jasper Road Sewer Extension project sheet DISCUSSION/ FINANCIAL IMP ACT: On March 19,2007 following a public hearing, the City of Springfield 2008-2012 Capital Improvement Program, A Community Reinvestment Plan (CIP), was adopted by the Council. Given recent developments surrounding the Bob Straub Parkway and its impending start of construction later this year, the extension of sanitary sewer service to the Jasper/Natron area has become a high priority. Thus, staff has submitted an application to borrow the full project funding from the State to extend the sewer and must now update the CIP to reflect both the change in funding and timeline. The changes to the project sheet (attachment A) include an increase to the total project cost from $4.8 million to $8.1 million. The increase in the estimated project cost is based on recent experience with the steep inflation in the cost of construction in many of our capital projects. Also the total project cost is shown as being programmed over the next 2 years, rather than over 5 years. This accelerated schedule anticipates that the need for sewer service will increase when phase II of the Bob Straub Parkway construction is completed in FY2009. Finally the project sheet reflects the need to seek debt financing in the form ofa Clean Water State Revolving Fund Loan. By seeking a loan to fund the project, the City will be increasing its debt service obligation; however, currently programmed funding will be available for other sewer projects and a portion of future programmed funds may be available for other sewer projects as needed. While we now anticipate that the initial cost will be fully funded by the City, we continue to plan on developer reimbursement to allow us to recover one-half of the total cost. For convenient comparison the original project sheet as approved on March 19th is included as Attachment B. After hearing public comments, Council is requested to adopt the updated JasperRoad Sewer Extension project by motion, thus amending the currently adopted CIP.
