City Manager
SUBJECT: Request for Capital Improvement Expenditures
DATE: February 7, 2013
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this memorandum is a one-time capital expenditure from the Capital
Improvement Fund. Annually, each department updates an assessment of needs and, as a
result of their effort, has created a documented history of departmental requests, spending, and
accomplishments. This documentation provides the department with a solid foundation for long-
range planning and allows for accurate tracking of the changing needs of the city.
However, for the last four years, the City's capital outlay spending has been cut significantly,
resulting in each Department lacking the tools necessary to optimize opportunities for
improvement and efficiency in providing municipal services. The City's inability to adequately
fund capital outlay has impacted the department's ability to achieve the quality of services
expected by Owasso residents.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUNDING PROCESS:
Adopted by the City Council in September 2003, Resolution 2003-14 establishes the procedure
for amending the priority determination of capital improvement projects eligible to receive
funding from the Capital Improvements Fund, also known as the permanent third-penny sales
tax.
First, the Capital Improvements Committee considers proposed additions or changes to the
priority list of projects to be funded by the third-penny sales tax. Following such consideration,
the Capital Improvements Committee shall provide a recommendation to the City Council
regarding the proposed additions or changes.
Next, the City Council conducts a public hearing in order to receive and consider citizen input
relevant to the recommendation made by the Capital Improvements Committee to amend the
list of project priorities eligible to receive funding from the third-penny sales tax. Notice of the
public hearing must be made no less than five days prior to the public hearing. At the
conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council must continue the matter for at least two
weeks before taking any action to amend the project priority listing. Any action taken by the
City Council to amend the current list of priority projects must be made by adopting a resolution.
REQUEST:
A one-time funding request for capital spending is being requested for the Street Department,
Police Services, and Golf Course. The total funding request is $450,000.
STREET DEPARTMENT:
For the past two years, the city staff has cut from the capital budget funding for the
development of a major transportation plan for our city. As early as 1978, the City Council
recognized that master planning documents are vital tools in long-range planning for any city's
development. A comprehensive transportation plan provides the policy basis for how
transportation dollars are spent, and what projects or programs the city focuses on to provide
transportation services for its citizens. In addition, the plan coordinates transportation
improvements with land uses, and land development expectations for the next twenty years.
The estimated cost to develop a Transportation Masterplan is $200,000. This proposal will request
funding from the Capital Improvements Fund for that project.
POLICE DEPARTMENT:
In the past three years, we have achieved only minimal progress in the replacement of police
vehicles (three vehicles last budget year and four vehicles during the current budget year). We
remain behind in rotating vehicles with high mileage. This request will include $125,000 in funds
from the Capital Improvement Fund for the purchase of additional police vehicles.
GOLF COURSE:
Various pieces of equipment are necessary to maintain optimal playability of the golf course
and several of those in the golf course fleet have exceeded their life expectancy. Staff time
and maintenance costs spent to continually refurbish antiquated equipment creates a
decrease in staff productivity, and a hazard to golf course conditions and player satisfaction.
This request will include $125,000 from the Capital Improvements Fund to purchase the following
equipment:
• Walking Greens Aerator - Currently operate a tractor mounted aerator and run
the risk of the tractor. The life expectancy of this machine is 8-10 years. The
walking aerator allows the staff to complete greens aerations more often and
more efficiently, while reducing the amount of time required for the greens to
recover from having the tractor on the greens.
• Spray Rig - This machine would replace the current 1999 spray rig that is unreliable
due to mechanical issues. Replacing this piece of equipment will improve
accuracy, reduce pesticide costs, limit the chances of a major accident, and
increase staff productivity.
• Greens Mower - The current greens mower was purchased "used" and has b
years of use at the golf course. The frequency of use has caused the machine to
age quickly. The hour meter on this machine resembles other machines in our
fleet that are 10-12 years old. Replacing this machine will offset the risk of turf
damage on our most important surfaces.
Reel grinder- This unit would replace a 1977 model. Our older unit is not
computerized and with the need for tolerances within thousandths of an inch, it is
almost impossible to be accurate and consistent when sharpening mower reels.
Also, this new machine would be automated, meaning that the equipment
manager can program a reel to be sharpened automatically, while the
mechanic moves on to other essential tasks.

Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Patrol Vehicle Replacement & Maintenance
DATE: February 19, 2013
BACKGROUND:
Since 2003 it has been the policy of the Owasso Police Department to replace vehicles when the
vehicle reaches the age of seven years or 100,000 miles. The practice of the Police Department has
been to apply this standard to vehicles used for patrol duties by full time officers. Unmarked detective
cars and administrative cars are used beyond the years and mileage referenced above because they
are not typically used for emergency response. Currently, the Police Department has thirteen patrol
vehicles that are not in compliance with the referenced policy. There are twenty-seven patrol vehicles
that are in compliance.
The goal of the replacement policy for patrol vehicles is to ensure the Department's ability to respond to
calls for service and ensure that the officers have safe vehicles for high speed emergency operations.
The professional appearance of the patrol fleet is also greatly enhanced by removing vehicles that do
not have the aesthetics expected of a professional organization. Lastly, the morale of officers is
enhanced when older vehicles with routine mechanical failures are replaced with newer, dependable
vehicles.
On February 7, 2013, the Capital Improvements Committee met to discuss various topics. Among those
topics was a discussion led by City Manager Rodney Ray that related to funding police vehicles and
golf course equipment with Capital Improvement funding. The recommended funding for the Police
Department was $125,000. This funding would be enough to purchase three patrol cars and one
detective car. The question arose as to whether or not there was a cost savings associated with the
replacement of the police vehicles and golf equipment. Police and golf staff were tasked with
answering these questions. The remainder of this memo focuses on the Police Department's response to
these questions.
PATROL FLEET ANALYSIS:
Staff conducted an evaluation of parts and labor costs during the calendar year 2012 for forty patrol
vehicles assigned to employees within the Police Department. The evaluation did not include the
replacement of tires or fuel expenses. Combined parts and labor for the forty patrol vehicles totaled
$29,651 for an average of $741 per vehicle. The data was further broken down into vehicles that were
outside of the Department's replacement policy and those that were still in compliance. The combined
repair costs for the thirteen vehicles that are outside policy were $14,250 for an average of $1,092.19 per
vehicle. The combined repair costs for the twenty-seven vehicles that are within policy were $15,401 for
an average of $570 per vehicle. Detective, Administration, and specialty vehicles were not evaluated
for this report.
Based on the comparison above, maintaining a vehicle that is outside of policy costs an average of
$526 more per year than maintaining one within policy. There are thirteen cars outside of policy;
therefore, it is costing about $6838 more per year to maintain the older vehicles in comparison to newer.
To replace all thirteen vehicles at $36,500 each would cost $474,500.
Based on the data above there is not a strong argument that buying new police cars creates a
significant cost savings as compared to maintaining older vehicles; however, there are reasons to
replace vehicles when they have reached the limits set by policy. First, it is critical to the mission of the
Owasso Police Department to have vehicles that are reliable. Officers are tasked on a daily basis with
response to emergency calls. The ability to get to those calls is dictated by the equipment provided to
the officer. Minor mechanical failures that are common in older cars create a situation where there may
be failures to start or breakdowns while en route to a call. These mechanical failures may not be
expensive to repair, but may in fact prevent the officer from arriving at an emergency call. Newer cars
are far less likely to fail mechanically when needed.
Another important consideration regarding vehicle replacement is officer safety. Police vehicles are
often driven under extreme conditions. Rapid acceleration and hard braking are common. Periodically,
police vehicles are driven at speeds in excess of 130 mph and rapid cornering is a daily occurrence. All
of these driving conditions require a vehicle that is in excellent mechanical condition. Even though
mechanical inspections are conducted on all police vehicles, visual inspections may not reveal the
hidden long-term effects of the stresses placed on a police vehicle. Police agencies across the country
have established policies of replacing cars long before they reach a point of being "worn out".
Replacing vehicles that are out of compliance with policy is one of several priorities of the Police
Department. It is important to note that although there are many vehicles that need to be replaced,
the Department does have the ability to access other vehicles in the event of a mechanical failure of
one or more vehicles. This redundancy in equipment ensures that daily operations are able to continue.
As referenced previously, the recommended Capital Improvements funding for the Police Department
includes $125,000, which would purchase three patrol cars and one detective car. Department staff
intends to budget for at least four additional patrol cars in Fiscal Year 2014. The combined purchase of
eight cars would have a significant impact on the department's objective of replacing vehicles that are
out of compliance with policy.
While replacing all of the cars that are out of compliance with policy would be welcomed, Police
Department staff recognizes that there are many other departments within the City of Owasso that
have significant equipment needs. The City of Owasso constantly has to balance multiple priorities and
it would be irresponsible of any staff member to solely focus on their department's needs while letting
another department fail because of lack of funding. All departments within the City of Owasso support
one another in daily operations. This team mentality permeates the culture within the City departments.
Another important issue related to funding equipment is that of equipment redundancy and availability.
The Owasso Police Department has over forty patrol cars that can be utilized. If one car fails, there is
almost always another one available for use. Most other departments do not have this type of
redundancy with their equipment. Some departments only have a single piece of equipment to do a
specific job. If that equipment fails, all work must stop until it can be repaired or replaced. From an
operational standpoint, this type of equipment should be in peak condition to ensure reliability. Owasso
Police Department staff strongly support funding equipment for other departments, particularly if that
equipment is vital to that department's mission.

Golf Course Superintendent
SUBJECT: Golf Course Equipment Replacement & Maintenance
DATE: February] 9, 2013
BACKGROUND:
Since the golf course opened in 1993, it has been the intent of the Bailey Ranch Golf
Maintenance Department to replace equipment at the end of its life expectancy.
However, tight budgets and economic uncertainty have prevented the golf course from
committing to a regular replacement schedule. Due to frequent usage and harsh
working conditions, golf course equipment requires regular replacement to maintain
optimum efficiency and keep repair costs to a minimum. Typically, mowers, carts, and
other smaller machines need to be replaced every 5-7 years. Tractors, sprayers, and
other larger machines can last 10-15 years. There have been some purchases made
over the past decade, but without a consistent replacement schedule in place, the
quality of the equipment fleet has fallen well below standard. As the fleet has continued
to age, the productivity, and reliability, of the fleet has decreased rapidly, while the cost
to maintain the fleet has risen sharply.
On February 7, 2013, the Capital Improvements Committee met to discuss various topics.
Among those topics was a discussion led by City Manager Rodney Ray that related to
funding police vehicles and golf course equipment with Capital Improvement funding.
The question arose as to whether or not there was cost savings associated with the
replacement of the police vehicles and golf equipment. Police and golf staff were
tasked with answering these questions. The remainder of this memo focuses on the golf
maintenance department's response to these questions.
EQUIPMENT ANALYSIS:
Bailey Ranch Golf Club management staff realizes that it is not fiscally possible to replace
all the equipment in the maintenance fleet at the same time. However, the
maintenance department's ability to properly maintain the best possible putting greens is
critical to the success of the facility. Golfers' perception of their experience at Bailey
Ranch (or any golf course) is first and foremost dependent upon the health and quality
of the putting greens. With this in mind, the following table outlines the equipment
deemed critical to the golf maintenance department's goal of sustainable, healthy
putting greens. Each piece of equipment has a direct bearing on the care and
maintenance of quality putting greens. The proposed aerator would improve the ability
to properly cultivate the soil, which would improve turf health and putting quality. The
proposed chemical sprayer would improve the accuracy, and efficacy, of all fertilizer
and chemical applications to the putting greens. The proposed greens mower would
reduce the wear and tear to the putting surface during the mowing process, and
therefore improve turf quality. The proposed reel grinder would allow the technician to
maintain the sharpest blades possible, which would improve all mowing cuts, but most
noticeably improve the putting surface quality. The proposed equipment lift would allow
the technician to maintain exact heights of cut on the greens mower, as well as other
mowers, more efficiently and safely. Lastly, the proposed turf fan would allow the
agronomy staff to improve the growing conditions of #2 green, thereby directly
improving turf health and putting quality.
Collectively, this equipment purchase would enable the golf course maintenance staff
to take a huge step toward not only ensuring the sustainability of healthy putting greens,
but would actually allow for substantial improvements in the current quality of the putting
greens. The importance of good putting greens cannot be overstated. Nothing is more
vital to the continued improvement in financial performance of the city's golf course.

*Notes on projected Annual Savings
1) Greens Aerator
• Currently, aeration (with the use of an aerator commonly used for tees and
fairways and pulled behind a tractor) costs $3,600 in fuel, labor and materials,
and aeration must be done 5 times per year to meet agronomic goals set by the
USGA (5 x $3,600 = $18,000).
• The proposed new machine can accomplish these goals in only 3 aerations at a
reduced cost of $2,500 for fuel, labor, and materials (3 x $2,500 = $7,500).
• Annual productivity savings of $18,000 - $7,500 = $10,500
• Projected annual usage is no less than 6 days per year. Rental of this machine
costs $1,250 per day (6 X $1,250 = $7,500).
• Total annual savings of $10,500 + $7,500 = $18,000
2) Spray Rig
• Current machine is a 2001 with 2,400 hours of use (equivalent to 185,000 miles).
• Fair market value of current machine is $5,000-6,000. Spent $5,000 last 2 years on
parts and labor for repairs.
• New machine is 3.6 acres per hour more efficient, which would save $978 per
year on operating labor.
• Parts and repair labor savings are estimated at $1,750 per year because new
machine would be under warranty and have newer, more durable components.
• Estimated annual pesticide cost savings of 10%, or $2,800, due to computer
controls, reliable pumps and components.
• Total annual savings of $978 + $1,750 + $2,800 = $5,528.
3) Greens Mower
• Current machine is a 2007 with 2,631 hours of use (equivalent to 202,000 miles).
• Fair market value of current machine is $7,000. Spent $2,500 last year on parts
and labor. Expect repair costs to continue to increase in next few years.
• Hybrid technology allows for estimated annual fuel savings of $750 (250 gallons of
unleaded).
• Parts and repair labor savings estimated at $1,500 per year, because new
machine would be under warranty and have newer, more durable components.
• New machine would be more efficient, which would save approximately $1,280
per year on operating labor.
• Offset tires would reduce turf damage and negate the need for walk mowing
labor estimated at $512 per year.
• Total annual savings of $750 + $1,500 + $1,280 + $512 = $4,042.
4) Reel Grinder
• Current grinder is a 1977 model and is not OSHA compliant. New machine would
be compliant and much safer to operate.
• Currently unable to get accuracy and precision of mower blade sharpening
needed to provide the best course conditions possible.
• Professional grinding services cost $200 per reel.
• Total annual savings is 72 reels x $200 = $14,400.
5) Equipment Lift
• Golf course currently does not own a lift. The proposed purchase would improve
worker productivity and reduce risk of costly worker's comp claims.
• One back injury claim would cost significantly more than the cost of this machine.
• Equipment manager adjusts height of cut on 6 mowers a total of 380 times
annually at an average of one hour per machine.
• A lift would eliminate the need to crawl underneath equipment to make
adjustments.
• The ability to safely stand underneath equipment would put all reels within reach
and reduce adjustment times by approximately 50%.
• 380 hours x .5 = 190 hours x $15 per hour = $2,850 labor savings
• Total annual savings of $2,850.
6) Turf Fan
• Currently do not have fan on #2 green.
• Fans on other greens (#1, 12, and 13) have proven to be effective in improving
turf health for the historically weakest and most vulnerable greens.
• Improving growing conditions (air flow and surface temperatures) would reduce
labor and material costs associated with turf recovery.
• Estimated reduction in labor for mowing, cultivating, watering, and fertilizing
would amount to total annual savings of $2,462.
Bailey Ranch Golf Club management staff believes that purchasing the above listed
equipment would not only pay back the invested $124,500 in less than 3 years, but would
create an estimated savings of more than $400,000 over the remainder of the
equipment's useful life. This past year has shown that when the golf course meets golfer
expectations, they will more consistently patronize the facility. The equipment outlined in
this memo allows the golf maintenance department to continue improving the playing
experience, thus improving revenues and creating a more financially sustainable golf
course.
