Water Utility Improvement ProjectsAGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY OF SALINA and USD 305
Capital Projects — Water Utilities
This Agreement is entered into this 23rd day of April 2001 by and between the
CITY OF SALINA, KANSAS (the "City") and UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
NUMBER 305 ("USD 305").
Recitals
A. Minimum fire protection requirements for sprinklered buildings of the size,
type and use as planned by USD 305 require 1,500 gallons per minute
(gpm) at 20 pounds per square inch (psi) from hydrants on all sides of the
building. These standards are established by law in the Uniform Fire Code
(UFC), adopted by the City of Salina. Meeting this minimum requirement is
the responsibility of the owner in normal commercial building/development
projects.
B. The City contracted with Wilson and Company Engineers to analyze the
water system and fire flow capacity in each of the school construction areas.
City Utility and Engineering staff members then worked with Wilson and
Company to outline what improvements are necessary to bring fire flows to
the minimum necessary to allow school construction/expansion in these
areas. The water requirement analysis for the three schools scheduled for
construction projects in 2001 have been completed. The remaining school
projects scheduled for later years are still under review.
C. Because the City constructs Water System Enhancements annually through
its Capital Improvement Program, City staff has identified which of the
needed water utility improvements would provide significant benefit to the
surrounding neighborhood residences and/or other structures, and thus
would allow City participation in the costs through its Water System
Enhancement Program.
D. All three school projects scheduled for 2001 construction contracting have
significant general benefit, and can be scheduled by the City as part of this
year's System Enhancement Program.
E. In order to accomplish these community public improvement goals, the City
and USD 305 wish to enter into this agreement whereby the City will design
and coiit'ract for each water project and be reimbursed by USD 305 for the
share of the costs attributable to its school project required fire flows.
