This document is a request for proposals for an automated meter read water meter system. It summarizes that the city's current contract for manual meter reading services is ending, and staff researched options for a long-term solution. An RFP was issued and six proposals were received. The proposal from Ferguson Enterprises was selected as it met all requirements and provided the best value. Ferguson would provide Mueller-brand automated meters with a compatible software system. The total estimated cost is $1.1 million, which could be financed over 7 years at 1.95% interest.
