Memorandum
Attached for your approval is a resolution to approve a construction contract with Bloom Roofing Systems, Inc. in the amount of $218,894.00 to replace portions of the roof at the Water Treatment Plant (WTP). AT&T Mobility approached the City about roof replacement in these areas to make the roof more structurally compatible with telecommunications equipment. Because the replacement of these roof portions benefits AT&T Mobility and the City of Ann Arbor, the City entered into a cost share agreement with AT&T Mobility for this project. The roof portions are near the end of their life and replacement will benefit the City.
The City has an executed Master License Agreement (MLA) with AT&T Mobility (A2- 0001060|07-18-2023) for telecommunications equipment installations on City Property. The MLA grants AT&T Mobility the right to collocate new telecommunications equipment on the rooftop of the Water Treatment Plant's Filter Press and Calciner buildings. However, the existing roofing is decayed and requires a full replacement to adequately support and accommodate AT&T Mobility's equipment. AT&T Mobility has committed to contribute 70% of the construction cost up to a total not-to-exceed contribution of $213,000.00 to complete the roof replacement and has entered into a Cost Sharing Agreement with the City.
Your approval to proceed with the approval of this Resolution will allow us to address the structural needs of the Water Treatment Plant, meet the requirements of the MLA, and foster our relationship with AT&T Mobility.
Budget & Fiscal Impact: The estimated total cost of the project is $218,894.00. Funds to finance this contract are available in the Water Supply System fund bala...
