BACKGROUND:
The primary electrical utility provider for the Dyal Water Treatment Plant is Duke Energy.
Due to an unanticipated increase in electrical utility costs, the FY23 Duke Power P.O. #80558 is insufficient and requires a change order to continue uninterrupted service through the end of FY23.
Staff recommends a budget adjustment in the amount of $340,000.00 to adequately fund P.O. #80558 for the remainder of FY23.
The City Council recently adopted Ordinance No. 05-2023 amending the City Manager's spending authority under Section 2-4 of the City Code. Therefore, upon Council's approval of the budget adjustment necessary to fund electric utilities, the city manager shall have the authority without further approval of the council to issue purchase orders and pay invoices related to utility services required by the city for normal routine operations up to the amount budgeted and appropriated by the city council in the city's annual budget including, but not limited to, electric, gas, fuel, solid waste, telephone, water, sewer and stormwater services.
