ITEM 5: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A REQUEST
FOR AN AMENDMENT TO THE ENGINEERING CONTRACT FOR THE
DESIGN OF THE NORTH OWASSO WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM
IMPROVEMENTS.
Mr Carr said that the OPWA approved an agreement for engineering design services with
HUB +Garver on March 17, 1998 for North Owasso Wastewater Collection System
Improvements. The project consisted of eliminating the 1061h St lift station and construction of
approximately 7200 LF of 15 -inch and 18 -inch gravity sewer to connect to the Ranch Creek
Interceptor. Construction of the project was awarded to Sapulpa Digging on June 15, 1999 and
is nearing completion. The 106th St lift station was removed from service on November 10,
1999. Although the purpose of the North Owasso Interceptor was to eliminate the 106th St lift
station and problems connected with inadequate lift station pumping, increasing collection
system capacity north of the station location is also needed. Bypasses have been documented on
N Mingo Rd at locations adjacent to Hillside Addition due largely to limited capacity in the
smaller diameter collection system. Engineering services previously performed by HUB +Garver
did not include the area north of the 106th St lift station along N Mingo Rd. An extension of
approximately 5175 LF is needed and engineering services will need to be performed for the
additional work. Amendment #1 to the original engineering agreement provides for the
additional services. Mr Larry Worley, a resident of the affected area, voiced his concerns about
the bypasses and his understanding that the work already performed should take care of the
problem. Following discussion, Mr Williams moved, seconded by Dr Bode, to approve
Amendment #1 to the Agreement for Engineering Services for the North Owasso Wastewater
Collection System Improvements with HUB +Garver, Tulsa, OK, in the lump sum amount of
$15,520, and authorization for the Chair to execute the amendment.

COUNTY AND RURAL WATER DISTRICT NO. 3, WASHINGTON
COUNTY
DATE: December 16, 1999
This memorandum addresses four requested actions. The first two are items 6 and 7 under the
Owasso Public Works Authority Agenda and requests OPWA approval of agreements with Rural
Water District No. 3, Rogers County and Rural Water District No. 3, Washington County. The
next two actions are items 18 and 19 under the City Council Agenda to approve the same

IBACKGROUND:
' For the last few months, both the City Attorney and staff have had discussions with the attorney

Washington County. The purpose of these negotiations was to work out methods of business for
both rural water districts and the City when, within the city limits, an area is serviced by a rural
water district. This is currently prevalent at the subdivisions of Bailey Ranch Estates II, Preston
Lakes, and the Owasso Market Center.
As was discussed at the last City Council Work Session by Mr. Cates, we have arrived at
agreements between the OPWA, City and both rural water districts. The proposed, attached
agreements note our cooperative purpose, the duration of the agreements, the method of holding
title and ownership of assets, and the income, liabilities, accounting, billing and collection of
charges procedures. It also notes development standards, termination of service, and area of
service.
City Attorney Ron Cates plans to be present at the meeting to present to you these agreements.

In Re: Agreement by and between RWD #3 Washington County and the
City of Owasso, Oklahoma and Owasso Public Works Authority
Dear Jim:
FAX 918 -582 -0166
Agreement by and between RWD 43 Rogers County and the City of
Owasso, Oklahoma and Owasso Public Works Authority
In accordance with your facsimile transmission of December 9`h, 1999, I have modified the
proposed agreements at paragraphs five and six of each. Insofar as inter - connection service is
concerned, I inserted the language "at District's expense" as it is my understanding that has been
the understanding among the parties.
I have discussed your client's request concerning the City establishing a flat rate that
' would cover all charges to be billed and collected by your client on the City's behalf with Ms.
Sherry Bishop, Finance Director of the City of Owasso, Oklahoma. Ms. Bishop advised me that
establishing a fixed rate is a workable solution to your client's concerns and therefore would be
recommended to the City provided, however, the City would have the opportunity to periodically
review District's water service charges to its customers within the corporate limits of City, more
' importantly, the volumes of water being sold to determine whether or not an adjustment would
need to be made in the fixed rate. Understandably, such review of the water charges would occur
at reasonable times being agreed upon by the parties during the course of this relationship.
I trust the foregoing meets with your needs at this time. After you have had an
opportunity to review such, please contact me to let me know if the proposed modifications are
acceptable. As you are aware, I am taking the proposed agreements before the City Council of
the City of Owasso, Oklahoma, in it's work session scheduled for the 14`h day of December,
1999.
