INTERGOVERNMENTAL WATER BOARD MEETING MINUTES March 9, 1994 Board Members Present: Paul Hunt, Lynda Jenkins, Peggy Manning and George Morgan Board Member Absent: Bill Scheiderich Guests Present: Beverly Froude and Jack Polans Staff Present: John Acker,Leslee Gemmill, Mike Miller, Pat Reilly, Randy Volk and Ed Wegner 1. Call to Order City Administrator, Patrick Reilly welcomed those present and at 5:30 p.m., brought the meeting to order. He informed the Board the fifth member, Bill Scheiderich was unable to attend due to a prior commitment. 2. Approve February 23, 1994 regular meeting minutes Approve February 28, 1994 special meeting minutes Lynda Jenkins motioned to approve the meeting minutes as submitted and Peggy Manning seconded the motion. A voice vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously. 3. Water Supply Plan Update Patrick Reilly introduced Mr. Harold Murray, President of Murray, Smith and Associates, Inc. Mr. Murray introduced Chris Uber, Project Engineer with the firm and said they were both involved in the Phase 2 Regional Water Supply Plan so have good insight in the regions water supply. Mr. Murray explained to the Board Tigard's agreement with Murray, Smith and Associates provides for professional engineering services necessary to complete a water supply update plan. Mr. Murray said presently, Tigard contracts with the City of Lake Oswego and City of Portland for its water. Approximately 97% of Tigard's water now purchased is surplus from the City of Lake Oswego and the rate is established by the City Manager of Lake Oswego. Approximately 3% of Tigard's water is purchased from the City of Portland. The 25 year agreement with Portland was signed in 1983. After evaluating potential water supply sources including South Fork Water Board, City of Tualatin, the Joint Water Commission and a new Willamette River source, Mr. Murray indicated that at this point,the existing water providers capable of supplying water to Tigard include the Cities of Lake Oswego, Portland and the Tualatin Valley Water District. Each of these three water providers are currently evaluating improvements required to their systems in order to provide water to Tigard. Mr. Murray informed the Board that the completion of the project may be delayed as a result of not yet receiving the necessary information from these entities. INTERGOVERNMENTAL WATER BOARD MEETING - March 9, 1994 - Page 1 Mr. Murray reviewed briefly the means by which the cities of Lake Oswego and Portland supply water to Tigard. Portland water supply comes from a protected watershed, is chlorinated and not filtered and Lake Oswego provides a higher quality water as they have a water treatment plant - both meet federal standards. • Patrick Reilly asked Mr. Murray to clarify Lake Oswego's position regarding supply of water to Tigard. Mr. Murray responded that to the best of his knowledge, the City of Lake Oswego is faced with a big expense if they were to continue providing water to Tigard and they don't want to lose the revenue. He continued saying Tigard's share of the necessary improvements for Lake Oswego to continue providing water to the Tigard service area is estimated to be $24 million. • George Morgan asked Mr. Murray if a 90-120 day deadline for completion of the project is reasonable. Mr. Murray answered that an extension would be needed to complete the study. • Lynda Jenkins asked about the status of the long range population data. Mr. Murray indicated John Acker, City of Tigard Associate Planner, has provided his firm with these estimates. • Paul Hunt asked about the likelihood of getting water rights from the Willamette River. Mr. Murray explained that his firm just completed a water right analysis of the Willamette for the Regional Water Study and every indication says water rights will not be available. However, water is available from storage and the dams on the Willamette are owned by the Corp of Engineers. The Corp of Engineers do not have authorization to supply municipal and industrial water and it's a complicated process to get re-authorization. He further explained this process is very complicated as is the issue of water rights. • Peggy Manning asked Mr. Murray his opinion on Region 2040 and if he envisions one future regional water district. Mr. Murray responded that Metro's 2040 plan is strictly a concept of landuse and will be used to guide the region. Water supply to meet the future demands will be as a result of the Phase 2 study. A big push for everyone to consider combining efforts is evident however difficult due to the political entities involved, specifically those entities that own water rights. • Peggy Manning asked about Lake Oswego and negotiations for a minimum and maximum volume commitment. INTERGOVERNMENTAL WATER BOARD MEETING - March 9, 1994 - Page 2 Mr. Murray responded that he would recommend Tigard commit to a portion of Lake Oswego's debt and agree to pay off its share annually. He explained to the Board the term "cost of service". In conversations between Lake Oswego and Murray, Smith & Associates, Lake Oswego has indicated they'd be able and willing to serve Tigard on the basis of cost of service. • George Morgan asked about the significance of the information needed to report to the City of Tigard and whether it might require a deferral as time gets closer for the forecast of regional information. He also asked if an interim short term contract for water would be preferred over the current arrangement and would it entail the involvement of other jurisdictions on a sub regional basis. Mr. Murray said Tigard currently has a backup source of water via a long term agreement with Portland. He explained the current contract with Portland specifically identifying the penalty terms. Using maps, Chris Uber presented to the Board an overview of Tigard's existing system. Mr. Uber said Tigard currently has in reservoirs 20.88 million gallons of water. In addition, he presented to the Board a water system hydraulic profile (attached) developed as part of the Regional Supply Plan, Phase 2. This schematic showed the regions major storage, transmission, pumping and supply facilities. He reviewed the process of getting Lake Oswego and Portland water to the Tigard service area and he talked about the advantages of gravity supply. • Lynda Jenkins asked Mr. Murray about aquifirs. Chris Uber and Harold Murray responded that the Regional Phase 2 Plan is looking at an alternative plan - A.S.R. (Aquifir Storage and Recovery). A.S.R. uses underground aquifirs as a storage vessel, pumping treated water down into the storage vessel during high flow periods and taking water out again during the summer. It is a new idea in this area and has been used in other parts of the country and is certainly a viable option. The whole subject of wells is being scrutinized - whether or not they are safe and can they be protected. All possible avenues will be looked at in the regional study before any decisions are made. After a brief discussion regarding a short term water source while investigating and negotiating for a long term water supply, Mr. Murray reminded those present that any existing, older system will be able to supply water less expensively than a new venture. Chris Uber talked about the daily capacity of Lake Oswego and the combined demand of Lake Oswego and Tigard. The current capacity of the treatment plant is 16.1 gallons per day and during the last hot day, the two cities combined demand was over 20 million gallons. As the populations increase, the improvements recommended in Lake Oswego's water master plan will double the capacity therefore, the $24 million cost. Lake Oswego has opted to hire an outside engineering consultant to complete an in-depth review of the 1988 Lake Oswego Water Master Plan recommendations for the supply of water to Tigard from Lake Oswego. Ultimately, the entire region will need to expand their facilities and water rates will increase. INTERGOVERNMENTAL WATER BOARD MEETING - March 9, 1994 - Page 3 • Patrick Reilly responded to a comment from Paul Hunt regarding the contract with Lake Oswego. He said the contract expired last year and Lake Oswego has agreed to continue to supply Tigard's service area with water to the end of this calendar year. There was discussion regarding the automatic renewal of the contract when it wasn't signed last year. Patrick Reilly informed the Board the contract has been assigned to the City of Tigard and extended for one year under its current terms. After a brief discussion, the Board authorized Patrick Reilly to request an extension from the City Council, of the deadline for the update of the water supply plan. • George Morgan asked Mr. Murray about his firms role in the Regional Study. Mr. Murray responded Murray, Smith and Associates, Inc. is a subcontractor for Montgomery Watson responsible for the water treatment and transmission facilities. Murray, Smith and Associates, Inc. is doing the engineering work for transmission facilities interties, the regional system and reservoirs. Secondly,his firm provided the map detailing the regions infrastructure to the Study. Phil Smith, of Murray, Smith and Associates has just completed a water rights analysis on all the water sources. After further discussion with Mr. Murray about the regional study timelines and available options, the Board complimented Mr. Murray and Mr. Uber on their informative presentation. 4. Existing Long Term Capital Improvement Program This item will be put on the next meeting agenda. 5. There was a brief discussion regarding the agenda for the next meeting scheduled for March 23, 1994 and the meeting adjourned at 7:20 p.m. INTERGOVERNMENTAL WATER BOARD MEETING - March 9, 1994 - Page 4 1000 900 800 J 700 a W. 600 �Q m Q 500 FERN HILL Z v RESERVOIR - 400 O LAKE OSWEGO F a 20.01MG WALUGA RESERVOIR 319' 320' :300 W SOUTH FORK - 1.0MG 4.OMG WATER BOARD TREATMENT PLANT, TO TIGARD'S BONITA CAPACITY-201MGD ROAD PUMP STATION - � 200 TUALATIN RIVER I CLACKAMAS AT GASTON JOINTJOINTLAKE OSWEGO WATER I RIVER AT _ COMMISSION WATER J WILLAMETTE RIVER WATER TREATMENT TREATMENT PLANTGLADSTONE P, 40MGD AT WILSONVILLE AND AT PLANT, 100 CAPACITY-40MGD �^ y SOUTH FORK 1-205 LAKE OSWEGO CAPACITY-16.11MGD WATER BOARD CLACKAMAS RIVER CLACKAMAS RIVER INTAKE 0 INTAKE Figure 3-1 MARCH 1994 WATER SYSTEM HYDRAULIC PROFILE CITY OF TICARD - WATER SUPPLY PLAN UPDATE DR*cw.

Reilly,City Administrator From: Michael Miller, Water Management Analyst Date! March 2, 1994 Subject! 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan In preparing the current 5-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), we hired Mr. Gilbert Meigs of Economic and Engineering Services, Inc., who also authored the engineering studies in 1971, 1986, and 1990. From those engineering studies and discussions with water staff to ascertain projects that were completed during the last fiscal year; projects that are to be or have been completed and financed by developers; and the developmental trends within the service area, a comprehensive prioritized plan has been developed to meet the water demands of the service area now and into the future. Through the years the 1971 engineering study has proven to be the most comprehensive and reliable of the studies, and is the basis for most of the major water supply projects. This study recommended the construction of the 10 million gallon (mg) reservoir (SW 125th Avenue and SW Bull Mountain Road)from which all the other reservoirs would be served, as well as the construction of 30-inch water mains to Lake Oswego and Portland so that future supply demands could be met. The 1971 study also recommended that 23 mg of storage be constructed by year 2000. Of these projects the 10 mg reservoir; the equivalent to a 30-inch transmission main (24- inch and 16-inch parallel mains)to Lake Oswego; and 21 mg of storage capacity has been completed. The full 30-inch equivalent to Portland has been completed from SW Tiedeman Street and SW Greenburg Road to Highway 217, but from that point to Bradley corner, a 16-inch transmission main connects us to Portland. The current 5-year CIP calls for the construction of the 2.5 mg reservoir, south of SW Scholls Ferry Road, to be constructed during the 96-97 fiscal year, which will surpass the 23 mg of recommended storage. In December 1990, the Agency implemented System Development Charges (SDCs) as a way to provide the means to finance future capacity increasing projects without having to borrow funds. The objective of SDCs is not merely to generate money for the Agency, but to ensure that a fair and equitable financing solution is available to support needed capital improvement additions due to growth. These capital improvement additions are those which increase the system capacity such as new storage reservoirs, pumping stations, transmission pipelines, pressure reducing valve stations, and other major distribution pipelines. The income for SDCs comes from water meter installations. Approximately 60% of the water meter sales revenue are directed to the SDC Fund, while the remaining 40% are divided and deposited into the Water General Fund budget line items of water meter sales and SDC reimbursement. The reason SDCs are important is that every project listed on the CIP is a capacity increasing improvement and can be funded by SDCs. As with any management tool the current CIP lists the capacity increasing improvements, including the estimated cost and timing. It also allows different alternates so that changes of events may be accommodated and the specifics of the CIP may be reshaped as the years pass. The CIP has been updated and altered to some degree every year since 1990 for this very reason. This is not to say that we are changing the overall CIP on a whim, but rather we are altering it to take advantage of the changing needs of the service area. One example of this is the 24" transmission pipeline along SW Greenburg Road. This project was put on hold during the 92-93 fiscal year in order to save funds because the SDC fund was smaller than anticipated due to slowing of the new housing market, and availability of peak water from the Bull Run system was in question. Another example is the proposed construction of the 2.5 mg reservoir located south of SW Scholls Ferry Road. In 1990, the original plan called a 2.5 mg reservoir to be constructed on the southern flank of Bull Mountain, but with the higher growth rate and demands in the northwest comer of the service area, the CIP was altered to allow the change in location. Also, in the current CIP, the construction of the 2.5 mg reservoir is scheduled for fiscal year 96-97. Because funds are available and the demands in this area have increased significantly, we are requesting that the construction of this reservoir begin in the 95-96 fiscal year. With the completion of the Water Supply Study Update by Murray Smith and Associates, Inc., we will again examine and update the CIP to make the necessary changes to reflect the recommendations for capital improvements for water source needs. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PLAN Funded from System Development Charges 5-Year Plan June 2, 1993 Fiscal Year 1993-94 Estimated Project Cost Pipeline Extension: S.W. North Dakota Street, S.W. 106th Avenue to S.W. 115th Avenue, 2,600 feet of 12" D.I. pipe @ $41.50/ft. $108,000 Justification: This area of the District system is in need of reinforcement and looping with medium diameter mains. This is the beginning of a program that will eventually utilize existing 12" pipes on North Dakota to complete a loop between Scholls Ferry Road to Tiedeman Road. Pressure Reducing Station: Install a buried vault enclosing pressure reducing valves fitted to the 12" pipe on Sunrise Lane. Lump sum of $20,000. $20,000 Justification: Until a reservoir is built at elevation 470 on the north side of-Bull Mountain, subdivisions such as Bull Mountain Meadows which are too high to be served directly from the 410 "Lone will be served from the reservoirs at Hi Tor. Water pressure directly from Hi Tor to these areas would be excessive and reduction is needed. The District owns land for the proposed reservoir at elevation 470. A future reservoir (see FY 1995-96) on the same tract will feed a future pump station that will fill the 470 reservoir. 1 Fiscal Year 1994-95 Pipeline Extension: S.W. North Dakota Street, S.W. 115th Avenue to S.W. 121st Avenue, 1,450 feet of 12" D.I. pipe @ $43.00/ft. $62,000 Justification: This completes the S.W. North Dakota Street 12" loop between Scholls Ferry Road and Tiedeman Road. Work to begin completion of the loop is scheduled for FY 93-94. Fiscal Year 1995-96 Reserve for construction of future 2.5-MG reservoir for the 410 zone to be located south of Scholls Ferry Road on District-owned property. $300,000 Justification: The District has adopted a policy of paying for needed capital improvements from current revenue. Engineering studies of 1986 and 1990 advised that to keep up with growth, the District must construct a 2.5-MG reservoir on the northwest flank of Bull Mountain. Acreage in the vicinity is under active development. The reservoir will serve all residents below elevation 350 feet on the north and northwest side of Bull Mountain. The expenditure is too large to accrue in one or two years, and the con- struction reserve begun in prior years will be increased by FY 1995-96 SDC income. Fiscal Year 1996-97 Reservoir Construction: 2.5-MG reservoir south of Scholls Ferry Road on northwest flank of Bull Mountain. $1,300,000 Justification: Engineering studies of 1986 and 1990 advised that to keep up with growth, the District must construct a 2,500,000 gallon reservoir in the 410 zone south of Scholls Ferry Road. The District owns property for this reservoir. Additional pipeline capacity to the north sides of Bull Mountain is proposed for FY 1997-98. 2 Fiscal Year 1997-98 Pipeline Extension: S.W. 121st and Walnut Street, from Fonner to 135th Avenue, 5,600 feet of 24" D.I. pipe @ $78/ft $437,000 Justification: In the summer time, No. 3 reservoir will not fill because the pipelines serving it are too small. With high growth in this area, along with the availability requirement for water to be pumped from the 132nd Street pump station to High Tor, it is deemed important that this main be installed. Additionally, fire flows are deficient in some parts of the area. The engineering study of 1986 recommended that this main be constructed. If the City defers the MacDonald Street project, then this pipeline would be built. Note: The balance of income will go into a reserve for future projects. Note on Accumulated Reserve for Future Reservoir At end of FY 95/96, the amount accumulated is estimated to be $1,118,000. Accrued interest, if any, is not included. The $1,118,000 plus SDC collections in FY 1996-97 are estimated to amount to $1,418,000. The reservoir is estimated to cost $1,300,000 at the present time. This does not include an allowance for inflation. It thus appears that construction could begin as early as the first half of FY 96/97. 3 Capital Outlay Projects Fiscal Year 1994-1995 Pressure Reducing Valve(PRV) station located on the west side of Bull Mountain between Phase 1 and 3 of Pleasant View Estates $20,000 1,000 feet of 12" D.I. pipe along SW Scholls Ferry Road to complete a circulation loop between Castle Hill (SW Walnut Avenue)and Pebble Creek subdivision. $43,000 Possible reconstruction of the 12" D.I. pipe crossing Fanno Creek on SW Durham Road. Washington County has a road improvement project for Durham Road from SW Hall Blvd. to SW Upper Boones Ferry Road scheduled during this fiscal year. Unknown at this time is the projects exact impact on the existing water system. Preliminary plans available in December-1-993. $8,600 SDC funded projects 1450 feet of 12" D.I. pipe along SW North Dakota Street between SW 115th Avenue and SW 121 st Avenue. This completes the 12" loop between SW Scholls Ferry Road and SW Tiedeman Road. $62,000 Land and Improvements Possible purchase of property for a pumping station to transfer water from the 410 pressure zone to a future 2.5 MG reservoir at elevation 550 feet. This property would be located on SW Beef Bend Road at SW 137th Avenue. Contingent upon the property being available. $30,000 Clearing and road work at the 1 I acre reservoir site for the construction of a new 2.5 MG reservoir at elevation 410 feet. $25,000 Permits and Land Use fees for new 2.5 MG reservoir. $15,000 Fiscal Year 1995-96 Possible relocation of 12" D.I. water main along SW Beef Bend Road from SW 131st Avenue to Pacific Highway due to a Washington County Road improvement project scheduled for construction during this fiscal year. As of yet Washington County has not released any preliminary design plans. $70,000 "3 SDC funded projects Construction of 2.5 MG reservoir at elevation 410 feet on the northern flank of Bull Mountain south of SW Scholls Ferry Road. $1,300,000 Fiscal Year 1996-97 If SW Garrde Street is not extended to SW Walnut by mid 1996, it will be necessary to extend 5,600 feet of 24" D.I. pipe from SW Fonner Street and SW 121st Avenue to SW 135th and SW Walnut Street. The pipelines serving reservoir No. 3 are not large enough to continue to supply the capacity needed in this high growth area. This water main would also enhance the ability of the Agency to supply water to the new 2.5 MG reservoir off of Scholls Ferry Rd. This project would be funded by a combination of SDC's and General Fund. $437,000 Land and Improvements Landscaping and fencing at the new 2.5 MG reservoir site. $20,000
