The Agenda Review Session of the Board of Public Works was convened at 10:30 a.m. on June 9, 2022, by Board President Elizabeth A. Maradik, Vice President Joseph Molnar, and Board
Members Gary Gilot, Jordan Gathers (absent), Murray Miller (virtual), Board Attorney Clara
McDaniels (absent) and Assistant City Attorney Jenna Throw present. Board of Public Works Clerk, Theresa Heffner, presented the Board with a proposed agenda of items presented by the public and by City Staff.
Board members discussed the following item(s) from the agenda.
AWARD BIDS AND APPROVE CONTRACTS Project Engineer Finnian Cavanaugh was present to answer questions about item 4.A. Beck’s Lake LaSalle Park EPA Master Plan. He noted that the award will be approved subject to the
approval of funding on June 27, 2022 by the Common Council.
REQUEST TO ADVERTISE FOR THE RECEIPT OF BIDS Project Engineer Finnian Cavanaugh was present to answer questions about item 7.A. 2022 Curb and Sidewalk, Round II. Mr. Cavanaugh noted that it is a divisible bid that will have five (5)
divisions that can be awarded separately. Gary Gilot asked if the program included tree removal
and tree replacement to which Mr. Cavanaugh responded that it will be all together, and it includes replacing two (2) trees for each one (1) removed. Mr. Cavanaugh noted the program also comes with a warranty for one (1) year and includes a watering period.
AGREEMENTS/CONTRACTS/PROPOSALS/ADDENDA
Project Engineer Finnian Cavanaugh was present to answer questions about item 9.E. INDOT LPA for Safe Routes to School Muessel Primary and Holy Cross School. The first INDOT LPA contract for this project was for the preliminary design; this contract is for the construction phase of the project.
RESOLUTIONS Assistant City Attorney Jenna Throw was present to answer questions about item 8.F. The transfer of real property to the City of South Bend Redevelopment Commission. Attorney Throw explained that a house was built on one of the parcels, and in the original purchase agreement, it
shows that the parcel was originally intended to be conveyed and the quit claim deed is to correct
the inadvertent omission of that parcel from the original deed of transfer. AGREEMENTS/CONTRACTS/PROPOSALS/ADDENDA Mr. Gilot requested information about item 9.D. Ethernet Services for Water Works SCADA
Communications. Director of SCADA Information Systems Brent Hussung was virtually present
and available to answer questions. Mr. Gilot asked about the current network, associated costs, and an explanation of how the new network would work. Mr. Hussung explained that Water Works is currently using a T1 (voice and date) line which AT&T is retiring, so Water Works had to find a new service. After two quotes, they found that AT&T Switched Ethernet Service to be
the least expensive even though it is more than the current service. The service provides
communication from the Water Works booster stations and remote plants to do real-time control with the SCADA environment to ensure the water is working properly. Mr. Gilot asked if there were inadequate fibers associated with the ChoiceLite fibers that the City
currently has access to. Mr. Hussung explained that he has been communicating with City’s
Information Technology Department to try to find out a way to redo the existing fiber loop to add on and see how much fiber it will take of the City’s pool that they are allowed to use and if it makes sense to do so. Mr. Hussung noted that for right now Water Works must get off the T1 line, so they are going to go in the direction of Switched Ethernet Service to maintain the current
level of connectivity and then work toward reducing or eliminating the service over the next three years. Mr. Gilot asked if the Director of Public Works would support an investment project to expand the fiber network that would meet the City’s need and provide a return on investment over time.
Director Horvath stated that the City does have plans to expand the fiber network and to do some additional broadband work. Director Horvath asked if there was an early termination option in the contract. Mr. Gilot noted that the early termination clause would result in paying fifty percent (50%) of the unused portion. Director Horvath stated that it may take that long to expand the fiber network.
REGULAR MEETING JUNE 14, 2022 130
AGREEMENTS/CONTRACTS/PROPOSALS/ADDENDA Director of Long-Term Control Plan Kieran Fahey spoke about item 9.C. The Professional
Service Agreement – American Structurepoint. Mr. Fahey wanted to note that the item was
tabled from the last meeting because he wanted to get a complete contract for the whole service that included the construction administration aspect which resulted in a reduction in the total cost by $236,000.
LICENSES AND PERMITS
Mr. Gilot asked from a policy perspective if the committee reviewing the applications for street closures for block parties were ensuring the closures were not just for single family parties but for the entire block; meaning everyone on the block has been invited. Mr. Gilot added that it can be very overwhelming for police management and barricade placement. Director Horvath
agreed and added that there are significant tax dollars used for special events.
OPENING OF BIDS Murray Miller asked why there weren’t any MWBE requirements attached to the Miami Hills TIF project, item 2.B. President Maradik noted that there wasn’t anyone in attendance to speak to
that project and the Board would have to come back to that item. Mr. Miller added that the Ward
Bakery commercial project included windows and there were MWBE requirements on that project and he would like to know why there were not MWBE requirements on the Miami Hills project.
PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR
President Maradik mentioned that at the last agenda review session there was a discussion about the CSO long-term control plan where Mr. Fahey provided some documents and held an internal meeting with engineering staff to discuss the long-term control plan in more depth. President Maradik noted at the internal meeting, Mr. Fahey shared that as part of the Consent Decree there
is a requirement that the City must provide a copy of the Consent Decree to all officers,
employees, and agents whose duties reasonably might include compliance with any provision of the Decree, and to any contractor retained to perform work required pursuant to the Consent Decree. President Maradik continued that as members of the Board of Public Works and the Board oversees contracting related to the Consent Decree, Mr. Fahey thought that it was a good
idea for each Board members to receive a paper copy per the federal government. President
Maradik stated that there is a form that each Board member needs to read and sign when receiving a copy that Mr. Fahey will then need to put on file. President Maradik added that she had a copy for each physically present Board member to sign after the agenda review meeting and those not in attendance at the agenda review meeting could sign their copy at the regular
meeting.
Director Horvath volunteered that Mr. Fahey would be willing to share more information if Board members are interested in a presentation. Mr. Fahey offered to answer any questions the Board members had and to do a presentation if anyone was interested. President Maradik added
that she had a copy of the slides if anyone was interested in a copy for a high-level overview.
