" I Vice Mayor Weiland made a motion to table Consent Item V-B.S, pending staff investigation
concerning doing the work in-house. Commissioner Black seconded the motion.
Vice Mayor Weiland asked if there were a tlmeline on the project that would make delay
disadvantageous? Dale Sugerman, Assistant City Manager, responded that there was a
timeline, saying that this effort was to have the City inspect every single one of the 2,200 fire
hydrants in the entire City. He said that the Fire Department was trying to get the Insurance
Services Office (ISO) rating lowered. The Insurance Office is an independent office and comes
In and takes a look at things like how does the Rre Department operate, how does It place
personnel, and what are its response times? They also look at the structure of your water
system and those fire hydrants for fighting fires. The fire hydrants are an Important part of the
ISO rating of our community and the auditors will be here in the spring of 2001. They will look
at all of the component parts that go Into the insurance rating, one of which will be the Quality
and status of our fire hydrants. The fire hydrants need to be Inventoried and examined to
assure that they are operating correctly. He commented on the suggestion of Vice Mayor
Weiland to have them done in-house. He stated that the Utilities Water Division could do this
and that he would be prepared to make a commitment of doing 20 hydrants a wee~ which
would take two years. He believed it would cost as much in-house as to have this firm do it
except that they could do it much faster since they would be devoted to it 100% of the time
and the In-house staff would be frequently diverted to other necessary tasks.

Mr. Sugerman stated that it should be kept in mind that no taxpayer dollars would be going
towards this project. He urged the Commissioners to go ahead and award the contract to
Metro Services Consultants so the City could get on with meeting the needs of the ISO contract.
