Additionally, staff, along with representatives from Story Construction and RDG Planning and Design, will provide an in-person update once per quarter (January, April, July, & October). If anything occurs during the project that requires Council action, staff will present this in a timely manner. In accordance with this directive, the City's Construction Manager for the project, Story Construction, has provided a Project Status Report (Attachment A). Story Construction and RDG Planning and Design are 97% complete with reviewing shop drawings and submittals. This activity will continue until 100% complete. There are several items that City Council needs to be updated on regarding the project. Precast Concrete Panels Staff continues to work with Story and RDG on gathering information related to staining the precast concrete panels and is planning on providing an update to City Council in February. Polished Concrete Floors The concrete floors in the lobby and the hallway to the locker rooms were specified to be a polished Class B finish which is best described as a "salt & pepper" look. Staff is not happy with the inconsistencies, imperfections, and the overall appearance of these areas. Thus, staff has directed the contractor to go to a Class C finish which will look similar to a terrazzo floor. A Construction Parks and Recreation 515.239.5105 main 515.239.5142 fax 515 Clark Ave. P.O. Box 811 Ames, IA 50010 www.CityofAmes.org 39 Change Directive (CCD) has been issued to keep moving forward with the project. The polishing work will begin on February 9 as that is the first opening the subcontractor had available. The initial cost estimate to do this work is $34,210. Staff is in discussion with Story and the contractor regarding who is to pay for this change. Additionally, there is an colored accent band in the lobby that was rejected. The contractor has removed the accent band and replaced it with integral colored concrete. This has been done at the contractor's expense. Substantial Completion Dates The revised substantial completion dates are as follows: February 20 - Non-natatorium spaces February 27 - Natatorium spaces Please note that the glazing for the southeast portion of the natatorium has a 10- week lead time and will need to be installed in late March or early April. Staff is working with Story on ways to expedite the procurement of the glazing and/or temporary fixes. State Inspection This is scheduled for March 3 and will encompass all components related to the operation of the aquatic areas. In preparation for this, Story, RDG, and staff are reviewing the inspection checklist to ensure the facility is ready to go. Soil and Ground Water Contamination It should be noted there have been no contaminated soils or groundwater found to date. CHANGE ORDER SUMMARY: There were zero change orders since the last report, and the changes thus far on the project are shown on the change order log (Attachment B). To date, construction change orders for the project total $396,167, or 18.87% of the contingency budget. The contingency for this project is $2.1 million with a current balance of $1,703,833. There is also $1 million set aside for mitigation of contamination issues, which has not been used at this time.

The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) specifically recommends that governments conduct interim reviews to ensure data accuracy, identify variances as they occur, and give decision-makers the information they need to respond promptly to emerging trends. Established quarterly reporting aligns the City's financial practices with GFOA guidance, strengthening transparency, and enhancing oversight of the City’s finances. Quarterly reporting also supports more effective budget monitoring by enabling the City to evaluate revenues and expenditures as they occur rather than waiting until year-end. This proactive approach ensures that unexpected changes can be addressed in time to protect service delivery. It also provides comparative and trend data, which are essential for evaluating financial performance, understanding the causes of variances, and supporting informed decision-making by elected officials. Regular reporting not only improves financial management, but also promotes accountability and transparency. In keeping with these best practices, the Finance Department has prepared the City’s FY 2025/26 Quarter 2 financial report as of December 31, 2025, which is attached for the City Council's review. The report provides fund balances, revenues, and expenditures for FY 2025/26 through the end of the second quarter, along with comparative information from the prior fiscal year. The quarterly report will serve two purposes: it will offer the City Council a clear picture of the City’s financial position during the year, and it will function as an internal monitoring tool for the Finance Department to identify inaccuracies, anomalies, and unanticipated changes in financial activity. OPTIONS: Should the City Council desire additional or more detailed information, staff should be directed to include that information in a future report. STAFF COMMENTS: The Finance Department has made quarterly reporting a standard practice. Reports will be provided after each quarter of the fiscal year, with accompanying analysis to highlight major findings and explain significant variances. This practice demonstrates the City's commitment to sound financial management, transparency, and adherence to GFOA’s recognized best practices in governmental finance. 45 ATTACHMENT(S): 2025-26 Quarter 2 Financial Report.pdf 46 City of Ames, Iowa Fiscal Year 2025/26 Quarter 2 Financial Report 47 FY 2025/26 Quarterly Financial Summary Period Ending December 31, 2025 Introduction The following reports summarize the City’s fund balances, revenues, and expenditures for the second quarter of FY 2025/26. Fund Balances The “Fund Balance at 6/30/25” amounts for each fund (the first column in the fund balance report) have been updated from the first quarter report as the audit is now nearly complete. If the balances change due to audit adjustments, the balances will be updated again in the third quarter report. Other explanations for the “Fund Balance at 6/30/25” column: - Many of the funds with negative balances at the beginning of the year are construction or grant funds with expenditures in FY 2024/25 for which reimbursement wasn’t received by the end of the fiscal year. These funds include Public Safety Donations and Grants, the CDBG Program, Parks and Recreation Grants, Street Construction, Sewer Improvements, and Stormwater Improvements. It’s common for expenditures and reimbursements in these types of funds to cross fiscal years and the reimbursements will be received in FY 2025/26. - The Special Assessments fund traditionally has a negative beginning balance. When assessments are created to cover the cost of debt issuance, the principal and interest payments for the debt begin immediately. The assessment revenue received to cover the cost of the debt, however, is collected over time. The fund’s negative balance will be resolved over time as the assessments are collected. Explanations and comments for the “Quarter 2 Ending Balance” column: - Many of the funds with negative or very small balances (CDBG Program, HOME Program, Parks and Recreation Grants, Street Construction, Airport Improvements, Water Construction, Sewer Improvements, and Stormwater Improvements) are funds where the revenue is received on a reimbursement basis after the expenditures have been incurred. The negative balances are normal and will be resolved when the reimbursements are received. - The Special Assessments fund will continue to be negative until the assessments have been collected through property taxes. - The New Animal Shelter Donations fund has a balance of $2,423,445 at the end of the second quarter as donations have been received, but construction of the new shelter hasn’t started. The adopted balance of zero was assuming that all donations received would be expended by the end of FY 2025/26. - Many funds have higher balances at the end of the second quarter compared to their projected balances at the end of the fiscal year (Local Option Sales, Tax, Road Use Tax, Council Priorities Capital Fund, and G.O. Bonds, for example). These funds all contain funding for capital improvement projects, and the timing of the expenditures is dependent on the project schedules. 48 - Sinking funds (Water, Sewer, and Electric) have higher balances at the end of the second quarter compared to their projected ending balances because principal payments in these funds aren’t scheduled until June 1. - The Parking Operations fund is being monitored as its revenues have not been covering its expenditures for several years. At the end of the second quarter, revenues are at 46.5% and expenditures are at 43.8% of their projected amounts. Revenues exceeded expenditures at the end of the second quarter, and the fund balance is at 94.8% of the projected balance for the end of the year. This fund will continue to be monitored to make sure that this positive trend continues for the remainder of the fiscal year. - The Transit Operations fund balance is lower than the fund’s projected balance because much of its operational funding is from federal and state grants which are received on a reimbursement basis. Revenues The adjusted budget for revenues is unchanged from the adopted budget. The first FY 2025/26 budget amendment approved by City Council in September was for expenditures only. Overall revenues on 12/31/25 were at 45.4% of the adopted amount for FY 2025/26. While it might seem that revenues should be at 50% at the end of the second quarter, it should be noted that many revenues are received at the end of periods, such as utility billings, Local Option Sales Tax, and Road Use Tax. Other items to note in the revenues: - There is revenue in grant and donation funds that wasn’t included in the adopted budget or was included at a lower amount. These revenue budgets will be revised in the FY 2025/26 adjusted budget and include Police Forfeiture, Public Safety Donations and Grants, Animal Shelter Donations, New Animal Shelter Donations, and Parks and Recreation Donations. - Many funds with revenues that are primarily grants (CDBG, HOME, Street Construction, Airport Improvements, Transit Operations, and Transit Capital Reserve) have received a low percentage of their revenue. This is normal since the revenue is received on a reimbursement basis and is received when the reimbursement requests are submitted as expenses are incurred. - The Water Utility Fund’s revenue is currently at 56.5% of the fund’s projected total for the year and is significantly higher than the revenue at 12/31/24. The higher revenue amount is due to $2,269,643 received in October, November, and December as part of the PFAS settlement. - The Sewer Utility Fund’s revenue is currently at 64.5% of the fund’s projected total for the year and is significantly higher than the revenue at 12/31/24. This is largely due to a billing to NADC for $2,126,036 for their prepayment of their contribution to the improvements at the WPC facility. - The Resource Recovery Improvements fund shows negative revenue of $227 because expenses for the land purchase for the new Resource Recovery and Recycling Campus were made in the fund. The bonds to cover the expenses, however, have not yet been issued. Because the fund is currently in a negative balance, the fund is being charged interest in the pooled cash and investment system. - Some Internal Service funds (Information Technology, Technology Replacement Reserve, and Risk Management) have significantly higher revenues at 12/31/25 than at 12/31/24. This is because the journal entries to charge those services to City departments was done on an 49 annual basis in FY 2024/25. The entries are now being made quarterly so the revenues can be reflected in the quarterly reports. - The Shared Communications fund, which accounts for the revenues and expenses of the MAPSG system funded through the City, ISU, Story County, and the E911 system shows negative revenue of $85,497 at the end of the first quarter. The expenses in this fund are reimbursed by the participating entities at the end of the calendar year, but an accrual is made at the end of the fiscal year as a portion of the revenue is for January through June of the prior year. The accrual was then reversed in FY 2025/26 so the revenue would not be overstated in the current year when the invoices are processed. The negative revenue will be cleared in the third quarter revenue report. Expenditures The FY 2025/26 Adjusted budget for expenditures reflects the amounts adopted in the FY 2025/26 budget and the amounts included in the first amendment to the FY 2025/26 budget approved by City Council in September. A significant portion of the amounts included in the first amendment are carryover amounts for capital projects that were incomplete at the end of FY 2024/25. Actual expenditures at 12/31/25 are at 31.7% of adjusted budgeted expenditures. None of the expenditures seem out-of-line with what would be expected at this point in the fiscal year. An explanation of some expenditures: - Funds that are primarily used to fund capital improvement projects have a lower percentage of their budgets spent due to the timing of the projects. These funds include Local Option Sales Tax, Road Use Tax, New Animal Shelter Donations, Street Construction, General Obligation Bonds, Airport Improvements, and Transit Capital Reserve. - Hotel/Motel expenditures are at 60.8% because Hotel/Motel Tax revenues have been higher than budgeted so far this fiscal year. Since a large percentage of the receipts are a pass- through to the Ames Regional Economic Alliance, the expenditures show as a larger percentage as well. - Police Forfeiture expenditures are at 219% due to several refunds of funding received as evidence. The expenditure amount will be updated in the FY 2025/26 adjusted budget. - The Fleet Services Reserve expenditures are at 100% because only two items were budgeted in this fund. Both were transfers to the Fleet Replacement Reserve Fund and both transfers have already been made. - Shared Communications expenditures are at 78.9% percent because one of their largest expenditures (a software support contract) has been made for the fiscal year. - Risk Management expenditures are at 70.8% because a large portion of the fund’s expenditures are one-time payments for insurance coverage made at the beginning of the fiscal year. 50 Fund Balance Summary Fund FY 2025/26 FY 2025/26 Quarter 2 Adopted Balance Year-to-Date Year-to-Date Ending Ending 06/30/25 Revenues Expenditures Balance Balance General Fund $ 14,437,445 $ 21,640,621 $ 22,734,211 $ 13,343,855 $ 10,904,767 Special Revenue Funds: Local Option Tax $ 9,830,025 $ 5,212,287 $ 5,093,482 $ 9,948,830 $ 5,414,183 Hotel Motel Tax 1,845,983 1,471,842 1,615,539 1,702,286 2,163,490 Road Use Tax 9,912,770 4,103,649 5,052,269 8,964,150 2,353,883 Bike Licenses -

Box 811 Ames, IA 50010 www.CityofAmes.org City Treasurer MEMO To: Mayor and City Council From: Roger Wisecup, CPA City Treasurer Date: January 9, 2025 Subject: Investment Report for Quarter Ending December 30, 2025 Introduction The purpose of this memorandum is to present a report summarizing the performance of the City of Ames investment portfolio for the quarter ending December 30, 2025. Discussion This report covers the period ending December 30, 2025, and presents a summary of the investments on hand at the end of December 2025. The investments are valued at amortized cost; this reflects the same basis that the assets are carried on the financial records of the City. All investments are in compliance with the current Investment Policy. Comments The Federal Reserve lowered the federal fund rate from 4.25-4.00 percent to 3.75-3.50 percent in the last quarter. The yield curve is currently inverted, making shorter maturities pay higher interest rates than longer maturities. Future investments will be made at current interest rates and future interest income will decrease. We will continue to evaluate our current investment strategy, remaining flexible to future investments while the Federal Reserve evaluates the target rate. 58 BOOK MARKET UN-REALIZED DESCRIPTION VALUE VALUE GAIN/(LOSS) CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT 0 FEDERAL AGENCY DISCOUNTS 5,481,113 5,490,904 9,792 FEDERAL AGENCY SECURITIES 99,728,482 99,891,076 162,594 INVESTMENT POOLS 0 COMMERCIAL PAPER 9,392,257 9,392,528 271 MISC COUPON SECURITIES 0 PASS THRU SECURITIES PAC/CMO 3,412,459 3,622,562 210,103 MONEY FUND SAVINGS ACCOUNTS 314,038 314,038 0 CORPORATE BONDS 0 US TREASURY DISCOUNTS 0 US TREASURY SECURITIES 114,812,963 115,102,690 289,727 INVESTMENTS 233,141,311 233,813,797 672,486 CASH ACCOUNTS 31,028,350 31,028,350 TOTAL FUNDS AVAILABLE 264,169,661 264,842,147 672,486 ACCRUAL BASIS INVESTMENT EARNINGS YR-TO-DATE GROSS EARNINGS ON INVESTMENTS:4,536,574 INTEREST EARNED ON CASH:659,793 TOTAL INTEREST EARNED:5,196,367 AND THE ACCUMULATED YEAR-TO-DATE CITY OF AMES, IOWA CASH AND INVESTMENTS SUMMARY AND SUMMARY OF INVESTMENT EARNINGS FOR THE QUARTER ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2025 59 A CITY OF City ol Ameslnvestments FY 2025 -2O2C Portfolio Management Portfolio Summary December 31, 2025 lnvsstmonts Ma*Et Vrluo Book Dayr to lraurrity YTi' 360 Equlv.

COUNCIL ACTION FORM BACKGROUND: In March 2011, the City Council approved a 28E intergovernmental agreement with Central Iowa Regional Housing Authority (CIRHA) to operate and administer the City’s Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program within the Ames jurisdiction. As part of the 28E agreement, the City Council authorized the Mayor to appoint a member and an alternate to represent the City on CIRHA’s Board of Commissioners. At the February 14, 2023, City Council meeting, Housing Coordinator Vanessa Baker-Latimer was appointed as the primary representative for Ames on CIRHA’s Executive Board of Commissioners. Her current term will expire on February 14, 2026 (see attached letter). Therefore, she will need to be reappointed for another three-year term. Staff is currently working to identify an alternate. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Re-appoint Housing Coordinator Vanessa Baker-Latimer as the primary Board Member Representative to the CIRHA Executive Board of Commissioners for the City of Ames. 2. Identify another person as the primary Board Member Representative to the CIRHA Executive Board of Commissioners for the City of Ames. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: As part of the City Council’s affordable housing goals, it is important that a representative be reappointed to serve on this board to represent low-income households in Ames who need this vital form of housing assistance. It is therefore the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative #1, as described above. ATTACHMENT(S): CIRHA Agmt.pdf 76 77 78 79 80 ITEM #:13 DATE:01-27-26 DEPT:ADMIN SUBJECT:2026 NEIGHBORHOOD SCULPTURE PROGRAM ACCESSION COUNCIL ACTION FORM BACKGROUND: One of the signature programs hosted by the Public Art Commission (PAC) is the Ames Annual Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition (AAOSE). Each year, sculptures exhibited through AAOSE are available for purchase by private individuals. Additionally, PAC typically acquires several sculptures each year into the City’s permanent art collection through the Neighborhood Sculpture Program. The Neighborhood Sculpture Program involves accepting applications from residents to have an AAOSE sculpture placed on City property for residents to enjoy. On January 6, 2026, PAC approved a recommendation that the City Council pursue accession of one sculpture for the Neighborhood Sculpture Program. The work "TipSee," is by the artist Craig Snyder. The acquisition cost of the piece is $8,000. The FY 2025/26 Adjusted Budget for the PAC Neighborhood Sculpture Program contains a balance of $42,197. It is proposed that "TipSee" be placed on a Public Art Easement at Ames Community Preschool Center, 920 Carroll Avenue, near the Free Little Library that sits on the property. An application for the Public Art Easement has been submitted to the Planning and Housing Department and is anticipated to be presented for consideration at a City Council meeting in February. Further information regarding the sculpture is detailed in the attached report from PAC. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve the accession of "TipSee" by Craig Snyder for the Neighborhood Sculpture Program as recommended by PAC. 2. Do not approve the accession of Neighborhood Sculpture Program artwork. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: This annual program allows for works of art to be purchased for display in neighborhoods throughout the City. This aligns with the City Council’s value of a fun, vibrant community that attracts and retains people. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1 as described above.

This application was successful, and the City has hosted two GIA positions since October 2025. Staff is seeking authorization to participate in the next program year, including two positions from October 2026 to August 2027, and a summer position from June to August 2026. Green Iowa AmeriCorps is a state-wide community service program founded in 2009. The program partners with over 20 city and county governments, school districts, non-profits, and conservation organizations in Iowa to support community-specific environmental sustainability efforts. Program partners that choose to participate are known as host sites. The members commit to serving in a three-quarter time position, roughly 26-28 hours per week, for a set 11- month term from October to the following August. Host sites may also receive one or more three-month summer positions at no additional cost. Services host sites may receive through the program can include, but are not limited to: Energy efficiency audits and weatherization for homes and businesses. Conservation work, including tree planting, prairie maintenance, water quality monitoring, and prescribed burns. Reduction in waste through waste auditing. Promotion of recycling and composting within the community. Greenhouse gas inventorying for climate action planning, and more. The two members serving with the City are mainly focused on energy services and environmental education. Energy services involve conducting energy audits and directly installing energy-efficient measures such as weather stripping, caulking, pipe insulation, LED lights, and low-flow sink aerators. Energy services are offered at no cost to Ames residents. Examples of completed environmental education activities include elementary school science nights, tabling at community events, and a pollinator-themed story time at the Ames Public Library. The GIA program sets performance goals for each host site, including the number of energy audits and educational programs completed. Detailed metrics for the City of Ames are attached, and the members are on track to meet or exceed each metric. The host site fee for the 2026-27 program year is $12,000. Funds are budgeted for this program by the Electric Department Demand Side Management Program, as energy audits and weatherization activities benefit the electric utility through energy efficiency and demand reductions. GIA members work closely with the Electric and Water and Pollution Control Departments to procure weatherization supplies and coordinate educational programs focused on the utility. 88 ALTERNATIVES: 1. Authorize staff to apply for and participate in 2026-27 Green Iowa AmeriCorps hosting for two positions. 2. Do not authorize the City of Ames applying as a host site at this time. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: The Green Iowa AmeriCorps program aligns with the City's sustainability goals, and the current positions are a key part of the City's boots on the ground implementation of the Climate Action Plan. The program fee is a cost-effective investment for the City of Ames in peak demand electric and water use reductions and community engagement. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1, as noted above.

The employees had previously voted to decertify membership with the union, and the City recognized that several provisions in the contract were not addressed elsewhere in City policy. Therefore, the supplemental policies were created to help manage circumstances specific to this group of employees. City staff has determined there is a need for clarification when determining pay for apprenticeship programs within the Electric Distribution and Technical Services division. This is particularly important when employees promote from other positions within the division to an apprenticeship position. The apprenticeship positions are the only positions in this group that contain wage steps, which are based on the number of related hours of experience. The challenge with the policies as written is that an employee may promote into an apprenticeship position and receive a substantial pay decrease, then wait several years until achieving enough experience to match their previous pay. This results in a disincentive for internal candidates to consider apprenticeships for critical and hard-to-fill positions, such as lineworker and substation electrician. In order to remedy this issue and provide fair and consistent application of policy, staff is recommending the addition of the following language to "Supplemental Employment Policies for Certain City of Ames Electric Distribution and Technical Services Division Employees." 2.4 Establishing Pay for Apprentice Programs. If an internal candidate promotes to an apprentice program, the employee shall be entitled to Step A of the apprentice position unless they have prior qualified experience that would entitle them to a higher step (as determined by the Apprentice Evaluation Committee). However, if the internal candidate is currently earning more than the appropriate step for their experience, the City Manager may authorize a rate of pay in a step that exceeds the employee's prior qualifying experience. In such an instance, the employee's pay will remain at the higher step, adjusted annually with Pay Plan adjustments, until their actual experience reaches the next appropriate step. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve the amendment to the Supplemental Employment Policies for Certain City of Ames Electric Distribution and Technical Services Division Employees. 2. Do not approve the amendment. 92 3. Refer this item back to staff for further information. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: After working with the Supplemental Employment Policies for Certain City of Ames Electric Distribution and Technical Services Division Employees for over two years, it has become apparent that not all circumstances are covered in the current policy. No applicable City policy appropriately provides pay guidance for internal promotion within the Electric Distribution and Technical Services division. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1 as described above.

All other City employees. ARTICLE II WORK ASSIGNMENTS 2.1 Work Assignments. Each employee is assigned an established job classification. Although an employee will normally perform work associated with the classification, employees will be expected to perform any work they are qualified to do connected with the operation of the City, no matter what the work classification may be. No employee will suffer a reduction in pay for doing work of a lower paid classification on temporary assignment. 2.2 Temporary Assignments. A crew is defined as at least three (3) employees assigned to work on a single work project or task. When a crew is sent to work without a Crew Leader present, the most senior journey-level employee willing to take on the responsibility shall be designated as temporarily in charge and shall receive the Crew Leader's rate of pay when doing such work for three (3) hours or more of the workday, after-hours trouble call-ins, weekends, or holidays. If no one is willing to accept the responsibility, management may assign that duty. When a Crew Leader is not present and when two employees are assigned to a single work project or task, the employee with the most seniority in the classification of the work being performed willing to take on the responsibility shall be designated as the lead and shall receive a 3% differential rate of pay when doing such work for three (3) hours or more of the work day, after-hours trouble call-ins, weekends, or holidays. If no one is willing to accept the responsibility, management may assign that duty. 2.3 Seniority for Temporary Assignments. “Seniority” shall mean length of continuous service in a classification in the service of the City. Seniority shall be lost in the following circumstances: (a)When an employee resigns or is discharged. (b)Leave of absence (other than military leave or compensable injury absence) for morethan one (1) year.

ARTICLE III HOURS – OVERTIME – HOLIDAY PAY – PERSONAL DAY 3.1 Work Week. The normal work week is Monday through Friday, and the normal hours of work are 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. with a 20-minute paid lunch break between the hours of 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. at the job site. The 15-minute morning and afternoon work breaks will be taken on the job site. All daily overtime premium provisions for a shift will apply at the end of such shift. Any change in the normal work week shall be made only after two (2) weeks advance notice in writing. 3.2 Standby. When it is necessary for an employee to standby, it shall be for a week and the employee shall be paid two and one half (2.5) hours pay per day at the normal rate of pay. One employee shall use a City furnished pickup during standby duty. 3.3 Call-in. A minimum of two (2) hours pay at regular overtime rates shall be allowed to all employees who are called back to work after having been released from the regular day's work, or if called in for unscheduled work before their regular starting time of any day. Standby pay may be converted to compensatory time on an hour-for-hour basis in accordance with the Compensatory Time provisions of the Employee Handbook. Management shall set and post the policy by which the standby duty lineworker can call in additional personnel. The policy shall include the number of employees the duty lineworker discretionally can call in without approval by management and the chain of command to be contacted if the duty lineworker wants more personnel than the duty lineworker is authorized to call without approval. 3.4 Overtime Distribution. Scheduled overtime opportunities shall be distributed as equitably as practicable among the employees within the classification who regularly perform the class of work being done. An employee who is called to work overtime and turns down the call will be charged, for overtime distribution purposes, with the same number of equivalent hours which the employee who accepts the call is charged. The City will post a monthly overtime report listing the amount of scheduled overtime worked by or charged to each employee during the previous month’s pay periods, and for the year to date. 3.5 Work Over Sixteen (16) Hours. An employee who has worked sixteen (16) hours or more in any twenty-four (24) hour period shall be paid at double the straight time rate for all hours worked in excess of sixteen (16) hours, and upon release, shall receive eight (8) consecutive hours of rest including travel time, before returning to work. If this rest period extends into the regular scheduled working hours, the employee shall be excused from that portion of the regular hours and lose no pay for such excused time. After receiving such rest period, the employee shall not thereafter become subject to the provisions of this section until the employee again works sixteen (16) hours in a subsequent twenty-four (24) hour period. Such subsequent twenty-four (24) hour period shall not commence earlier than the employee's reporting to work following the rest period. Should the situation develop during a regular workday, the twenty-four (24) hour period shall commence at the start of the regular workday. 3.6 When an employee has worked sixteen (16) hours in any twenty-four (24) hour period and has not been released for a full eight (8) consecutive hour rest period, the employee shall be paid double time thereafter for all hours worked until the employee is released for eight (8) consecutive 97 3 hours. All employees will take an eight (8) consecutive hour rest period after working sixteen (16) hours in any twenty-four-hour period unless instructed otherwise by management. 3.7 Weekend Work. Work commencing after the end of the last scheduled workday of a calendar week and/or before the beginning of the first scheduled workday of the next calendar week is deemed as "weekend work". Employees performing weekend work will be paid at the rate of time and one-half for the first eight (8) hours and thereafter at the rate of double time. Except for the time spent while traveling to attend education, training, or development programs, which shall be paid at straight time, hours worked on Sunday shall be paid at the rate of two (2) times the regular hourly rate. 3.8 Authorization for Overtime and Travel. All overtime work and travel arrangements for work outside the normal utility area shall be authorized in advance by a supervisor. 3.9 There shall be no pyramiding of overtime pay for the same hours worked. 3.10 Rest Time. An employee who is called on to perform unscheduled work between the hours of eleven p.m. and six a.m. shall receive equal time off for all hours worked between 11:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m., and it shall be the responsibility of the employee to notify the supervisor whether they choose to take these hours at the beginning of the workday or at the end of the workday. The employee shall be paid the normal hourly rate for any scheduled hours missed. The provisions of Section 3.10 will not apply when the conditions of Section 3.5 are met. 3.11 Holiday Pay. An employee required to work on a designated City holiday will receive the allowed holiday straight time plus double time for all hours worked during the holiday. In the event a holiday falls within an employee’s vacation period, the employee is not required to use vacation to receive pay for that holiday. In the event a holiday falls within an employee’s stand-by duty week, the employee is entitled to a choice of eight (8) hours straight time pay or eight (8) hours of compensatory time for the holiday. 3.12 Work Outside Normal Utility Area. When it is necessary for an employee to work away from the normal area of the Utility in the service of the City, including for training or educational seminars, etc., the City will pay for the time actually spent in travel at the appropriate regular or overtime hourly rate. 3.13 Personal Day. Each employee shall be granted one (1) eight (8) hour paid personal day per fiscal year. Personal days may not be accrued from one (1) year to the next. A personal day shall be taken as a full eight (8) hour day off; partial days are not permitted. Personal days shall be scheduled in the same manner as vacation. ARTICLE IV MEALS 4.1 Employees will be paid for each meal at the rate of 1/3 of the Federal Per Diem Rate for meals published annually by the IRS. Employees are required to turn in a meal reimbursement form for each meal by the end of the next scheduled work day. 4.2 Meal allowance will be granted under the following conditions: (a) An employee starts work on a normal workday prior to the normal starting time and work continues until one hour or less of their normal start time. In this situation an 98 4 employee shall be reimbursed for a breakfast and lunch meal. No lunch meal will be provided if the employee is on rest time any time between the hours of 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. No lunch meal will be provided for scheduled work starting prior to the normal starting time. (b) An employee works on a normal workday after normal quitting time and before 7:30 p.m. and works for two (2) hours or more. (c) An employee is called to work after 7:30 p.m. and works for six (6) consecutive hours. (d) An employee is directed to work straight through the hours of 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and due to an extraordinary circumstance (e.g., work load, emergency response, etc.) is not able to take a lunch break outside of those hours. (e) An employee is called in to work on weekends or holidays between the hours of 6:30-8:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m. or 5:30-7:30 p.m. If the work is pre-arranged then the conditions of 4.2(a), 4.2(b), 4.2(c) and 4.2(d) will apply. Example: If an employee is called in on a weekend or holiday at 5:30 p.m. and works until 7:00 p.m., then a meal is allowed. ARTICLE V RESIDENCE AREA 5.1 Residence. Employees in classifications that are routinely subject to standby and call-in, as designated by the department head, are required to reside in the area bordered by the Boone and Story County lines on the north and south, State Highway 65 on the east; and on the west, County Road R27 north of Boone, and the Des Moines River south of Highway 30 to the Boone County line. Communities intersected by the borderlines, and Zearing, shall be considered within the area. The permitted residency area is that area inside the borderlines. The area adjacent to but outside the borderlines is not included. After completing their probationary period, a new employee shall, within six (6) months, reside within the residency area. The department head may allow an employee up to an additional six (6) months if the employee provides documentation of financial commitment to move within the residence area. ARTICLE VI SAFETY 6.1 The most current edition of the "Safety Manual for an Electric Utility" of the American Public Power Association is made a part of this policy by reference. However, whenever the safety manual requires questions on safety to be referred to the crew leader, such questions also shall be brought to the attention of management for appropriate action. 6.2 Inclement Weather. The City will endeavor to plan outdoor construction work for periods when the outdoor temperature is above zero (0) degrees Fahrenheit. Employees may be required to work in inclement weather conditions if such work is: 1) necessary to protect life or property, 2) necessary to maintain service to the public, 3) scheduled work, 4) switching, 5), retrieval of equipment and/or materials for repairs, overhaul and/or assembly indoors, or 5) other emergency work. The manager shall take the scope of work into consideration with the weather when determining whether and how outdoor work will occur. 99 5 6.3 Clothing, Glasses, Tools, Equipment. (a) The City intends to purchase goods and services of high quality consistent with the expected use at the most reasonable cost from qualified, responsible, and responsive vendors. The purchase of any or all prescription safety glasses, shoes, equipment, or clothing may require approval of a manager prior to placing an order. (b) The City shall furnish, and employees shall wear, protective clothing, including boots/footwear, and prescription safety glasses. All clothing furnished by the City is to be worn only when “on duty” or when traveling to or from work. Employees who are in transit to or from work may make ordinary stops in places such as grocery stores, etc., which do not reflect poorly on the image of the City. Employees shall not indulge in the use of alcoholic beverages while in City clothing or uniforms. (c) The City shall furnish newly hired employees with a full set of clothing appropriate for the work and the season in which the employee starts work (e.g., lighter weight clothing if the employee starts in the summer months and heavier weight clothing if the employee starts in the winter months). The City shall provide additional weather-appropriate clothing in advance of the season changing, such that after one full year of employment, each employee will be fully outfitted with the clothing necessary to perform their job duties in a range of weather conditions. (d) The appropriate manager shall determine the clothing to furnish each employee upon hire and at the time the employee is fully outfitted for work in all seasons. The clothing furnished may include (selected from the list below as appropriate): 1) Fire-retardant shirts 2) Fire-retardant pants 3) Insulated boots (ASTM F2413-05 (M I/75/C/75) EH rated) 4) Non-insulated boots (ASTM F2413-05 (M I/75/C/75) EH rated) 5) Safety footwear 6) Jacket with liner 7) Insulated coverall and hood 8) Hard hat liner 9) Rubber glove liners 10) Rain jacket and hood 11) Rain pants 12) Leather gloves 13) Prescription safety glasses (e) Maintenance of fire-retardant clothing shall be the City’s responsibility. (f) If cleaning is unable to remove a stain or it affects the integrity of contaminated clothing, or if evidence of need is otherwise demonstrated, replacement clothing shall be provided by the City at City expense, except as follows: 1) The City shall only replace prescription safety glasses that have been broken while in the service of the City three (3) times in any two (2) year period. 2) The City shall pay for replacement boots/footwear not more than once per year unless the boots/footwear have been contaminated by PCB spills. 3) The City shall replace clothing or boots/footwear of equal value contaminated by 100 6 PCB spills (contaminated or non-contaminated transformer oil) due to a work-related cause, hydraulic oil, battery acid, or any hazardous materials, provided that the employee was practicing the safety rules of the City. In order for an employee to request reimbursement, they must complete an incident report and report it by the start of the next workday. The damaged item must be surrendered. (g) The City will furnish all equipment and tools in fixed locations. The City will furnish all necessary safety equipment for the protection of the employees working on energized or deenergized lines and/or equipment, including approved hot line tools, and all safety equipment must be used. Equipment and tools are not to be removed from the premises without the approval of management. 6.4 Safety Rules. When work is being done, the Safety Rule Book will be used as a guideline. Whenever City rules and policy state otherwise, City rules and policies will take precedence and be followed. Safety rules and policies will not cover all situations, and therefore it is the responsibility of every employee to assess the dangers and use appropriate measures to ensure the safety of all employees and the public. If an employee is called upon to perform work which the employee considers hazardous and not properly protected, the employee shall bring the matter to the attention of the crew leader or person in charge before starting the work. If questions arise, final interpretation rests with the supervisor. 6.5 Failed Equipment. Any equipment that fails a visual or mechanical test shall be deemed unsafe and shall be red-tagged and reported to the supervisor. 6.6 Primary Areas (more than 600 volts) will only be worked in by a journey-level Lineworker or Substation Electrician, or an appropriate step apprentice supervised by a journey-level Lineworker or Substation Electrician. Dead front transformers or equipment with an effective shield between the work area and the primary area are not considered a primary area. The primary area includes reaching or falling distance plus two feet of a primary conductor. 6.7 The Reaching or Falling Distance is the maximum distance from an energized conductor that a person can be and still make contact with that conductor with any extremity of the body, clothing, or hardware being held. Any individual working within this area will be considered the same as the conductor. 6.8 Two-Person Rule: When energized conductors of more than 600 volts are being handled, the two-person rule will apply. Work of this nature will be done with a journey-level Lineworker who is assisted by another journey-level Lineworker or by an apprentice on the appropriate step. When both employees are in Reaching or Falling Distance of a Primary Area, a third employee will be present on the ground or in the immediate area to give assistance in case of an emergency. The Two-Person Rule will not apply when hotsticks are being used, when the voltage being worked is 600 volts or less, or when work is being done on dead front transformers or on equipment with an effective shield between the work area and the primary area. 6.9 Primary Conductor: A Primary Conductor will be wires, bushings, and equipment of a voltage of 600 volts or higher that are bare or are not effectively grounded or insulated for the voltage they are transmitting. Wires and equipment with effective insulation or that are grounded or shielded with an effective ground will not be considered primary conductors for the purpose of work being done in the vicinity by employees or designated personnel. Wires, bushings, and equipment that constitute a hazard to the employee or designated personnel will be covered with the appropriate cover up so as not to constitute a hazard. 101 7 6.10 Network: Vaults and utility holes are considered effectively insulated or grounded and will not be considered a primary area unless insulation or grounding is removed from a primary conductor. The secondary conductor of the network will not be considered a primary area, but when work is being done on bare secondary conductors, high voltage rubber gloves will be worn, and only personnel in an appropriate classification will handle the energized secondary conductors. There will be a minimum of three people present when working on the network. Before entering any vault or utility hole, atmospheric testing shall be done and appropriate ventilation shall be used. 6.11 High Voltage Rubber Gloves and Sleeves: High voltage rubber gloves and sleeves shall be worn whenever working within a primary area. Rubber-gloving primary conductors of over 5KV (phase to ground) from a pole or structure shall not be permitted. Rubber-gloving primary conductors of over 10KV (phase to ground) from an approved aerial device shall not be permitted. No primary conductors shall be handled without using approved hotsticks while the worker is on the ground. High voltage rubber gloves shall be worn when operating switch handles of mechanically operated high voltage switches.

This shared use path will provide connectivity from University Blvd across Ioway Creek along the south side of S. 4th Street. Staff has been working with WHKS & Co. of Ames, Iowa to develop plans and specifications for construction of the project with a total estimated construction cost of $1,603,006.40. The table below shows estimated expenses and revenues for this project: Expenses Amount Revenues Amount Design $ 95,000.00 Construction (current estimate)$ 1,603,006.40 Contract Administration $ 50,000.00 FY 22/23 Bridge Rehab G.O. Bonds $700,000 Iowa State University Funding (estimated)$80,200 Skunk River Trail Redirected Local Option Funding $800,000 FY 23/24 Bridge Rehab Road Use Tax $300,000 Totals $ 1,748,006.40 $1,880,200 The prefabricated steel bridge market has seen significant cost increases since this project was programmed, including significant volatilities in the Ipe (or Brazilian walnut) wood market, which is used for the bridge deck. At its July 22, 2025 meeting, the City Council directed staff to utilize a portion of the Skunk River Trail (E. Lincoln Way to SE 16th Street) funding to facilitate the completion of this project, while pursuing other alternatives for the Skunk River Trail crossing of Ioway Creek. The table above shows $800,000 in Skunk River Trail Local Option funds for this project. The table also shows $300,000 in Road Use Tax funds from the FY 23/24 Bridge Rehab (E. 13th Street Skunk River Bridge) project that staff recommends reprogramming to this project. The E. 13th Street Skunk River Bridge project will be added back at a later time in a future CIP. 103 The existing S. 4th Street roadway bridge over Ioway Creek is expected to have approximately 25-30 years of remaining service life before replacement is needed. The proposed prefabricated pedestrian bridge is anticipated to last well beyond that timeframe. Should the future roadway bridge replacement be constructed with an integral shared-use path, the prefabricated pedestrian bridge has included several design elements that make relocated of the pedestrian bridge possible. These include an ipe wood deck in lieu of concrete and a painted finish to protect steel members from salt spray from the adjacent roadway. Although these decisions increase the initial construction cost, they improve durability and flexibility, resulting in a stronger long-term investment in the City’s bridge infrastructure. Shared use-path construction is anticipated for the summer of 2026. Due to significant lead times for the pedestrian bridge, it is estimated the bridge, and path connections to the bridge, are installed in spring 2027. Staff has coordinated extensively with the Iowa State University and adjacent properties regarding the construction activities for this project, and will provide additional coordination as construction progresses. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve preliminary plans and specifications for the construction of the 2022/23 Bridge Rehabilitation Program (S. 4th Pedestrian Bridge over Ioway Creek), setting February 18, 2026, as the bid due date and February 24, 2026, as the date of Public Hearing for report of bids. 2. Do not move forward with this project. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: This project will complete a significant bicycle and pedestrian connection for all users of the area, including large special events. Approval of the plans and specifications will continue to keep this project on pace for 2026-2027 construction. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1, as described above.

All information submitted by a vendor may be treated as public information by the City unless the bidder properly requests that information be treated as confidential and cites the applicable open records exception, in which case the City will notify the bidder of any pending public records requests to allow the bidder to seek court protection. In the event the bidder marks each page of the proposal as proprietary or confidential without adhering to the requirements of the Section, the City may reject the proposal as noncompliant. 13. REPRODUCTION OF SUBMITTAL DOCUMENTS 13.1 By submitting a bid proposal, the bidder agrees that the City may copy the bid proposal for the purposes of facilitating the evaluation or to respond to requests for public records. The bidder consents to such copying by submitting a proposal and warrants that such copying will not violate the rights of any third parties.

The proposal guaranty of unsuccessful bidders will be returned promptly after award has been made. In no case will the proposal guaranty be held longer than thirty (30) days without written permission of the bidder, except that the proposal guaranty of the bidder to whom the contract is awarded will be retained until they have entered into a contract and filed an acceptable bond. 15. VENDOR FORMS, TERMS, AND CONDITIONS 15.1 If a bidder intends to request that the City of Ames complete any vendor application form, or any vendor agreement form, or agree to any vendor terms or conditions in connection with the proposed contract, the proposed forms and/or terms or conditions must be submitted with the bid/proposal for review by the City’s legal counsel during the evaluation of bids/proposals. This includes, but is not limited to, vendor credit application and customer agreement forms, vendor lease forms, vendor terms/conditions of sale, vendor shipping or delivery terms, and vendor billing/payment terms. 15.2 Bidders are advised that in the event any such forms or terms contradict City of Ames specifications or other contract requirements, the bid/proposal may be rejected due to the contradiction unless the bidder has indicated deletion of such clauses prior to submission to the City. If such forms/terms indicate a firm other than the bidder is in any way a party to the proposed contract, the proposed party must also indicate concurrence with deletion of such clauses. 15.3 If such forms or terms or conditions require that payments be remitted to other than the bidder, the bidder shall indicate the name and address of the firm to whom the bidder would request payments to be made, and the firm’s relationship to the bidder. 15.4 If no vendor forms or terms or conditions are included with the bid/proposal, no such forms or terms or conditions will be approved by the City during the evaluation or award processes or following award of the contract. If the bid/proposal does not indicate the proposed contractor, vendor, or payee to be a person or company other than the bidder 1) only the bidder will be considered as contractor/vendor, and 2) payments will be made only to the bidder to whom the contract is awarded. If the bid/proposal does not clearly indicate that a person or company other than, or in addition to, the bidder would in any way be a party to the proposed contract, only the bidder would be considered the contractor/vendor. 15.5 The City of Ames will in no case agree to contract terms or conditions not in compliance with City of Ames specifications and/or not submitted for review with the bids. 16.

No bidder shall submit more than one proposal under the same or different names. Reasonable grounds for believing that any bidder is interested in more than one proposal for the work may cause the rejection of all proposals in which such bidder is interested or may cause the disapproval of any contract awarded to such bidder. The attention of bidders is directed to Chapter 553.23, Code of Iowa, regarding unlawful combinations in making public contracts. 18.4 Basis of Bid: For bid items described as unit price on the Proposal Form, the bid evaluation total of all prices will be determined as a sum of the products of the estimated quantity of each item and the unit price bid for the item, and lump sum items, if any, on the Proposal Form. In cases of discrepancies between the multiplication of quantities or units of work and unit prices bid, unit price shall prevail. 18.5 Discrepancies between the sum shown on the Proposal Form and the correct sum thereof will be resolved in favor of the correct sum. Correct sums will be calculated as stated above (by multiplying the quantity of each item as shown on the Proposal Form and the unit price bid). 18.6 If requested by the City during the evaluation process, the bidder shall submit a preliminary schedule of values. This shall include quantities and prices of items included in the work which, when added together, equal the contract price. If requested by the owner, the bidder shall divide the schedule into component parts. Requested schedules shall be submitted within two (2) business days following the request. 18.7 Communication During Evaluation: In order to ensure the proper and fair evaluation of bids, unsolicited communication by the bidder with City officials or staff evaluating the bids is prohibited prior to the time a bid decision or recommendation for award has been made. Communication between the bidder and the City will be initiated by the appropriate City official or employee in order to obtain information or clarification needed to develop a proper and accurate evaluation of the bid. 19. CONTRACT AWARD 19.1 The City of Ames reserves the right to reject any or all bids, including without limitation, non-conforming, non-responsive, unbalanced, and/or conditional bids. 19.2 The City reserves the right to reject the bid of any bidder whom it finds, after reasonable inquiry and evaluation, to not be responsible. 164 Project Account No. 383-7758-439 / 320-7758-439 2022/2023 Bridge Rehabilitation Program S. 4th Street Pedestrian Bridge Last Revision: 1/14/26 Page 13 of 64 City of Ames, Engineering Division 515 Clark Avenue, Ames, IA 50010-0811 19.3 To the extent allowed by law, the City of Ames reserves the right to reject any bid of any bidder who has previously failed to perform adequately after having once been awarded a prior contract for work similar in nature to that in this bid. 19.4 Bids will be reported to the City Council of the City of Ames, Iowa, in accordance with the Notice of Public Hearing and to Bidders for action thereon. 20.

The contractor is responsible for constructing all new pedestrian facilities in accordance with the plans, specifications, and applicable standards. Pedestrian facilities include sidewalks, shared use paths, pedestrian ramps, and crosswalks. 21.1.1. Upon request, the engineer can provide assistance and guidance on plan interpretation. However, the contractor is solely responsible for implementing the plans. 21.1.1.1. The design and construction parameters of pedestrian ramps are relatively narrow. Minor errors in formwork or pavement finishes can significantly affect the final results. Because of this, special care and attention should be taken when setting formwork and/or finishing the various elements of pedestrian ramps including, but limited to, adjacent curb and gutter, ramp lip, truncated dome placement, widths, running slopes, and cross slopes. 21.1.1.2. A pay-item for Pedestrian Facility Construction Survey and Staking has been added to account for the anticipated extra effort to comply with the strict ADA standards on City of Ames projects. No extra payments for will be made. 21.2. No payment will be made for pedestrian facilities as described in Section 21.1 until pedestrian facility compliance is verified by the engineer. 21.3. Initial review of pedestrian facility compliance will be made by the engineer no more than 5 business days after the contractor reports to the engineer that the entire shared use path section, sidewalk section, crosswalk section, or pedestrian ramp is complete. Partial acceptance of pedestrian facilities will not be made. (i.e. the 6” sidewalk ramp and landing pad will not be accepted until the 4” sidewalk tie-ins are completed and ALL elements of the pedestrian ramp are determined to be compliant.) 21.4. Compliance of pedestrian facilities will be determined by the engineer via the use of a smart level. Measurements will take place after construction and shall be within the tolerances called out in the plans. If any element falls outside the specified tolerances, the pedestrian facility will be determined non-compliant. The contractor shall remove and replace all non-compliant elements and any additional items necessary to bring the pedestrian facility into compliance such as, but not limited to, newly placed curb and gutter. Pedestrian facility replacements shall be completed at no additional 193 Project Account No. 383-7758-439 / 320-7758-439 2022/2023 Bridge Rehabilitation Program S. 4th Street Pedestrian Bridge Last Revision: 1/14/26 Page 42 of 64 City of Ames, Engineering Division 515 Clark Avenue, Ames, IA 50010-0811 cost to the city. 21.4.1. In the event the contractor does not agree with the engineer, they can present their own information at no additional cost to the city. This may be through the use of another, properly calibrated smart level in the presence of the engineer, or through the use of a Total Station. No GPS verification will be allowed. The engineer will respond to the additional information provided by the contractor within 5 business days. 21.4.1.1. If the contractor presents data confirming non-compliance, the contractor shall remove and replace the pedestrian facility at no cost to the City. 21.4.1.2. If the contractor presents data confirming they are in compliance, and the City accepts that data, the Engineer will determine the pedestrian facility is within compliance. 21.4.1.3. If the contractor presents data showing they are in compliance, and the City has cause to believe the data may be in error, the City will re-evaluate the pedestrian facility. The City will then provide written documentation of the survey data, possible concerns, and required actions, if any are necessary for final acceptance. 21.4.2. In the event the contractor has cause to believe the city is in error after Section 21.4.1, a third-party survey can be requested in writing by the contractor. The city will then hire a third-party surveyor to verify the newly constructed pedestrian facility via the use of a total station. 21.4.2.1. By requesting this, the contractor is agreeing to pay the third-party surveyor fees through a change order of the contract if the pedestrian facility is determined out of compliance. The contractor also agrees to remove and replace any non-compliant pedestrian facility at no cost to the city. 21.4.2.2. If the pedestrian facility is determined to be compliant, the contractor will not be charged for any of the third-party survey work and the pedestrian facility will be determined compliant by the engineer. 21.4.3. Once compliance of the pedestrian facility has been verified and accepted, the contractor shall submit as-built drawings for each verified and accepted location to the Engineer. The as-built will include, but is not limited to, distances and slopes within the facility. 22. FINAL SUBMITTALS 22.1.

City and Subdivision Projects: 1) Upon request, the engineer can provide assistance and guidance on plan interpretation. However, the contractor is solely responsible for implementing the plans. 2) The design and construction parameters of pedestrian ramps are relatively narrow. Minor errors in formwork or pavement finishes can significantly affect the final results. Because of this, special care and attention should be taken when setting formwork and/or finishing the various elements of pedestrian ramps including, but not limited to, adjacent curb and gutter, ramp lip, truncated dome placement, widths, running slopes, and cross slopes. 3) A pay-item for Pedestrian Facility Construction Survey and Staking has been added to account for the anticipated extra effort to comply with the strict standards of all City of Ames projects. No extra payment for this item will be made. 211 Project Account No. 383-7758-439 / 320-7758-439 2022/2023 Bridge Rehabilitation Program S. 4th Street Pedestrian Bridge Last Revision: 1/14/26 Page 60 of 64 City of Ames, Engineering Division 515 Clark Avenue, Ames, IA 50010-0811 4) The Contractor installing the pedestrian facilities shall have a set of construction plans on site. b. Private Construction and Private Utility Projects: 1) The design of the affected facility shall be done by the project owner’s engineer. 2) Upon request, the project owner’s engineer can provide assistance and guidance on plan interpretation. However, the contractor is solely responsible for implementing the plans. 2. Payment: No payment will be made for pedestrian facilities as described in Section 21.1 until the pedestrian facility compliance with the approved plan is verified by the Engineer. 3. Review: Initial review of Pedestrian Facility plan compliance will be made by the Engineer no more than 5 business days after the Contractor reports to the Engineer that the entire shared use path section, sidewalk section, crosswalk section, or pedestrian ramp is complete. Partial acceptance of pedestrian facilities will not be made. (i.e. 6” sidewalk ramp and landing pad will not be accepted until 4” sidewalk tie-ins are completed and ALL elements of the pedestrian ramp are determined compliant.) 4. Determining Compliance: Plan compliance of pedestrian facilities will be determined by the Engineer via the use of a smart level. Measurement will take place after construction and shall be within the tolerances called out in the plans. If any element falls outside the specified tolerances, the pedestrian facility will be determined non-compliant. The contractor shall remove and replace all non-compliant elements and any additional items including, but not limited to, newly placed curb and gutter, as necessary in order to bring the pedestrian facility into compliance at no cost to the City. a. In the event the contractor does not agree with the Engineer, they can present their own information at no additional cost to the City. This may be in the format of using another, properly calibrated smart level in the presence of the Engineer, or through the use of a total station. No GPS verification will be allowed. The Engineer will respond to the additional information provided by the contractor within 5 business days. b. If the contractor presents data confirming non-compliance, the contractor shall remove and replace the pedestrian facility at no cost to the City. c. If the contractor presents data confirming they are in compliance, and the City accepts that data, the Engineer will determine the pedestrian facility is within compliance. d. If the contractor presents data showing they are in compliance, and the City has cause to believe the data may be in error, the City will re-evaluate the pedestrian facility. The City will then provide written documentation of the survey data, possible concerns, and required action if any are necessary for final acceptance. 5. 3rd Party Survey: In the event the contractor has cause to believe the City is in error after Section 7030.3.04.G.4, a third party survey can be requested, in writing, by the contractor. The City will then hire a third party surveyor to verify the newly constructed pedestrian facility via the use of a total station. a. By requesting this, the contractor is agreeing to pay the third party surveyor fees through a change order of the contract if the pedestrian facility is determined out of compliance. The contractor also agrees to remove and replace any non-compliant pedestrian facility at no cost to the City. b. If the pedestrian facility is determined to be compliant, the contractor will not be charged for any of the third party survey work and the pedestrian facility will be determined compliant by the Engineer. 6. As-Built Drawings: Once compliance of the pedestrian facility has been verified and accepted, the Contractor shall provide the Engineer with as-built drawings for each verified and accepted location. The as- built will include, but is not limited to, distances and slopes within the facility. 3.10 CLEANING Add: D. Prior to opening the sidewalks and pedestrian crossings, the Contractor shall clean the detectable warning panels of all superfluous concrete and remove the plastic covering after the concrete is cured such that the panel surface is clean and the truncated surface is fully functional.

The Electric Meter division currently owns and operates two WECO test boards, a single-phase unit and a three-phase unit, both of which already operate on the WECO software. Adding a third WECO test board will upgrade testing capabilities and extend the useful life of the existing units by allowing all three to operate on the same updated software platform. The new test board provides additional testing capabilities not available on the older units, including: 1. Ability to test and record results of the remote disconnect/reconnect feature of AMI meters. 2. High-harmonic load testing, which is increasingly important as more computer-driven devices include harmonic distortion into electrical service. The new test board can simulate real-world power quality conditions in a shop environment to ensure meter accuracy for both the utility and customers. Standardization on WECO equipment ensures all three test units can be operated from a single control computer using one integrated software system. Purchasing a test board from a different manufacturer would require a separate control computer, separate software, additional training, and further integration costs - expenses that are avoided by selecting a unit compatible with the existing WECO equipment. The new test board includes updated software that will allow the current control computer to be upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 11. The City of Ames Information Technology (IT) division has identified the existing Windows 7 configuration as a security risk, and it is currently disconnected from the network. With the new software, one computer will be able to securely operate all three test units. While all test units will continue to be used as long as they remain functional, the new test board will effectively replace the 17-year-old single-phase unit. Because staff is requesting a waiver of the competitive bidding process, additional steps have been taken to assess the quoted price for reasonableness. Staff reviewed comparable products and found the quoted cost to be reasonable and consistent with similar equipment currently on the market. Alternatives such as the TESCO MTB-3050 and the Probewell MT3-GT were reviewed. However, the Radian Research Model 4050X was determined to be the superior and more cost-effective option due to compatibility with the existing WECO test units and shared software. Funding for this purchase is available in the approved FY 2025/26 budget. The Electric Meter 229 budget currently has $65,000 budgeted for the purchase of this equipment. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Waive the City's Purchasing Policy requirements for competitive bids and award a contract to Radian Research Inc. of Lafayette, IN, for the purchase of an automated test board for Electric Services in the amount of $57,977.65. 2. Do not approve and direct staff to solicit bids for this equipment. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: Ensuring Electric Services can properly test AMI meters is essential. This upgrade will create a fully integrated system in which one computer can operate and control all three test units. The new software removes reliance on outdated systems that have been identified as a security risk, allowing the testing platform to migrate to a Windows 11 computer that can be securely maintained. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1, as described above. ATTACHMENT(S): 4050X_Brochure.pdf 230 Accuracy Convenience Versatility The Premier Meter Testing Hardware Automated Test Boards 231 Automated Test Board WECO 4050X, 4050XT, 4150X and 4330X The WECO 4050X, 4050XT, 4150X, and 4330X automated test boards are the touchstone in meter testing hardware. Building on our tradition of delivering testing solutions that provide a powerful mix of accuracy, convenience, and versatility, these models add next generation features and cutting-edge technology. The NIST traceable RADIAN Research RX-30 series reference standard provides unparalleled accuracy to the testboards. The difference between the three models lies only in the current and the weight. Need a current range between 0.001A to 50.0A? The WECO 4050X is the testboard for you. The 4150X provides 0.001A to 150A. Should you need higher current capability the WECO 4330X provides a range of currents from 0.001A to 330.0A, Test meter start up current as low as 1mA. Open disconnect relays under full load conditions. Test a class 320 meter at class amps. Enjoy RADIAN’s unmatched accuracy across the entire operating range of each. The foundations for this revolutionary system are the features and innovations that have put RADIAN at the forefront of the industry for over thirty years. Low insertion force Smart Socket™ technology, fitted with high conduction silver and gold connections, and an electronic socket control, provide an excellent connection and extended hardware lifespan. A laser-based optics system employing high intensity light delivers highly accurate results from black marks or creep holes through even the dirtiest covers. Front mounted controls allow simple test selection and testboard control. An optional barcode scanner and printer cuts meter processing and data entry time. The optional OPTOCOM™ interface allows the meter to be tested and programmed without ever having to change the optical head. Control Software WATT-Net Basic Software supplied with 4000X was developed in a .NET environment with fully integrated SQL Express database and Winboard 3 meter test software. With Winboard 3, you can build advanced test sequences that allow you to control every parameter of a test, simplifying even complex tasks, and generate results that are compatible with all major databases (MS SQL, Oracle, Sybase). The WATT-Net family of data management solutions gives you unparalleled test result organization, reporting, and exporting abilities. The innovative 4000X automated test boards are designed to help utilities maneuver today’s real world metering issues. Require connectivity to a shared or enterprise database? WATT-Net Basic can upgrade seamlessly to our enhanced WATT-Net Express, Limited, and Plus software- the premier asset and smart grid device management database software solution for electric and gas utilities. Harmonic Generation The 4000X series of testboards has harmonic generation capabilities; you can now put various meter brands and meter technologies through a full harmonic analysis. With generation to the 60th harmonic and independent harmonic control in each of the current and voltage circuits (6 channels) as defined by order, magnitude, and phase, you can get the full picture of how a metering device is going to perform. ANSI C12.20-2015 section 5.5.6 addresses harmonic influence, the effect of non-sinusoidal waveforms. These ANSI defined waveforms come predefined out of the box in any of the WATT-Net family of software. Bring confidence to your meter shop and customers that your meter population is accurately measuring energy using ANSI defined harmonic conditions. WATT-Net provides the ability to bring real world field conditions back to the shop. Captured harmonic and/or trend data from the RW-30X can be played back allowing various meters to be tested under actual field load conditions. The load condition can be automatically played back from the captured data, providing an accuracy per meter “revolution” and the average accuracy of the entire test. 232 Power Quality For many testboard users, meter testing has evolved to much more than Full Load, Light Load, and Power Factor tests. As energy meters become more advanced, the test equipment needs to keep pace. The 4000X series has done exactly that with capabilities to create and generate harmonic waveforms, simulate and test power quality events, and measure energy using the fundamental waveform only. Voltage Interrupt/Sag/Swell Simulation and Testing Create test sequences that simulate voltage interrupts, sags, and swells as defined by IEEE. These simulated events are labeled as Instantaneous, Momentary, or Temporary. These are used to simulate flicker, over/under voltage, and brown outs. Define the number of cycles and magnitude of voltage for each event. The test pauses after each step to verify that the power quality event flags are triggered on your meter. A Pass/Fail indication is provided that will be saved along with the meter accuracy test results. Power Quality events are defined in the chart below. Fundamental Only Testing (Canada) Canadian customers have requirements to test meters measuring the fundamental waveform only, even in the presence of harmonics. Choose from fundamental only energy modes Watt Hrs - Fundamental, VA Hrs - Fundamental, and VAR Hrs - Fundamental. Multiple Socket Solution The WATT-Net family of software allows for the connection of multiple 4000X series sockets to one computer. Each socket can be used independently for maximum flexibility. This allows for high speed testing processes that can test different meter forms, using different test sequences, all at the same time. Multiple VAR Test Types There is more than one way to run a VAR test, and ANSI is constantly approving new calculation methods. Unlike other test systems, the 4000X series allows you to select from any ANSI approved calculation method to test a meter. This gives your utility the ability to choose the method that best fits its structure and needs, rather than having to accept the single method that a particular system is capable of testing. Available calculations include Voltage 90 degree shifted, Integral VAR, Integral VAR 50 Hz, Integral VAR 60 Hz, RMS VAR, and Fundamental VAR. Front Panel Display The 4000 family now features a color touch screen display built into the testboard front panel. This display provides information from the internal removable RX Reference Standard; including Energy Metrics, Vectors, Status, and more.

Voltage and current sources feature fuseless self-protection technology, providing hardware protection from short-circuit, thermal, and over-current fault conditions. Meter Disconnect Relay Test A relay test step allows you to step through the process of cycling your meter’s disconnect relay. It determines the effectiveness of the disconnect relay based on generating current through each element to determine the status of the relay. Pass/Fail is determined, which is then saved along with your meter’s accuracy test. This feature can be used in tandem with the Power Line Carrier input to test the PLC communications along with disconnect relay operation. Requires a user supplied method to communicate to the AMI Module, typically provided by the AMI vendor or meter manufacture. Power Line Carrier Input An outlet on the back of the testboard provides an input to communicate directly to a power line carrier module inside the meter. The outlet is configurable for each meter form and service type, to allow communications regardless of whether the module is powered phase to phase or phase to neutral. Use this feature in tandem with the disconnect relay test to verify module comms and disconnect relay operation. All test results are documented and saved with the meter accuracy test. Recalibration The 4000X series testboards give users the ability to maintain calibration on site. This provides the ability to maintain NIST traceability without interruption to workflow. Our WATT-Net family of software allows customizable test sequences to ensure traceability requirements. We have created standards compare adapters to allow connection to any model of master standard. Ease of Maintenance Our state-of-the-art card cage provides ease of maintenance. The labeled circuit boards easily plug into the cage. If necessary, the 4000X allows for simple and fast troubleshooting as boards can be swapped between phases to quickly to check for hardware failures. The card cage design has greatly reduced the need for internal wiring, reducing potential failure points to increase dependability. Turbo Test™ We have worked hand-in-hand with the industry’s leading meter manufacturers to bring you Turbo Test™ technology. Slash the amount of time it takes to test a supported meter on the 4000X series testboards to nearly one fifth of regular testing time. Save your shop valuable time and money with the Turbo Test™ option. N A 234 The diagram shows an example of how the load side testboard is configured for both line and load side powered meters: 4050XT The need for street light meter testing has exploded in recent years. With this new technology has come new testing requirements. One of the most fundamental changes has been load side powered street light meters. Traditionally, meters have been powered from the line side of the meter. The energy consumption of the meter is not measured by the meter itself, so that operational cost is not passed on to the customer. In street light metering, there has been a desire in certain applications for the meter to be powered from the load side of the meter. In this case, the meter measures the power consumed by the light, as well as the meter’s own energy consumption. This gives the utility the full operating cost of the lighting system. If tested on a traditional meter testboard, the load side powered meter can give up to 6% error. This is an unacceptable amount of error. RADIAN resolved this issue with 4050XT. This testboard has load side meter forms pre-configured in the WATT-Nett software for ease of testing. The hardware can also be configured to measure the load on the voltage axis as well as the current axis when performing a phantom load test. This method of testing eliminates error when testing load side powered meters. The 4050XT has all the features and accuracy of a 4050X.

In November 2022, City Council authorized a three-year Microsoft Enterprise Agreement with Insight that established fixed pricing for the City’s Microsoft licenses. During the first year of the agreement, the City contracted primarily for end-user Microsoft office products, including Office 365. Based on the contracted license counts and pricing, the total cost for this initial year was $158,577.46. In FY 2023/24, staff expanded the agreement to include additional server-related Microsoft services. This consolidation was intended to align renewal cycles, simplify billing, and secure the most favorable pricing structure for future agreements. During the same fiscal year, Microsoft Multi-Factor Authentication capabilities were added through the Azure P1 p r o d u c t . Council authorized $215,351.80 in FY 2023/24 to support these additional services. Council approved funding in FY 2024/25 for the final year of the three-year Microsoft Enterprise Agreement . The agreement continued to include end-user office products, client access licenses, device management tools, identity and security software, server operating system licenses, and Structured Query Language (SQL) licenses. The total cost for the final year of the agreement was $216,028.28. Approval is now being requested to enter into a new three-year Microsoft Enterprise Agreement for the period of January 2026 through January 2029. The proposed agreement includes Microsoft 365 G3 licenses, server operating system licenses, and SQL licenses. The Microsoft 365 G3 licenses consolidate several core services into a single offering, including Office 365 applications, client access licenses, Intune device management, and Azure P1 identity and security features. This structure also enhances the City’s ability to monitor and manage the security posture of software installed on client computers. Under the proposed agreement, server operating system licenses will continue to support the City’s virtualized server environment and other infrastructure, while SQL licenses will support City websites and internal applications hosted within that environment. The proposed agreement provides fixed pricing for the full three-year term and will be paid in three equal annual installments of $287,530.68. The agreement contains a non- appropriation clause providing for cancellation in the event that the City Council does not allocate funding in future City budgets for the services. Compared to the prior year, the proposed renewal reflects several changes, including an annual cost increase for existing Microsoft 365 licenses ($26,766.25), the addition of new Microsoft 365 licenses resulting from the Library IT transition ($31,020.80) and for overall user growth ($1,938.80), incremental SQL licensing related to physical security needs ($2,598.80) 239 and annual SQL cost adjustments ($100.96), additional server licensing to support virtualized servers ($6,614.52), backups ($385.56), video recording systems ($171.36), network security ($171.36), and other minor Microsoft 365 software used across various departments ($1,733.99). The total cost of these changes is $71,502.40. The FY 2025/26 amended budget Council will be considering in the coming months includes $286,803 for the renewal of the Microsoft Enterprise Agreement. The IT operating budget contains sufficient funding to cover the remaining shortfall of $727.68. As requested in the past, staff is requesting Council waive the purchasing policy requirements given that Microsoft software is sold at a fixed price through resellers . Insight has been the City's partner for Microsoft Office since Spring 2020. Based on Microsoft's pricing model and the significant transition costs to switch resellers, staff is recommending the City continue to contract through Insight for all Microsoft software. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Waive the Purchasing Policies and Procedures requirements and award a contract for software licensing and support for Microsoft software to Insight Public Sector, Dallas, TX, in the amount not to exceed $287,530.68. 2. Do not authorize continuing software licensing and support with Insight Public Sector. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: Insight Public Sector serves as the City’s provider for Microsoft enterprise software licensing and support. This software is used daily by both end users and servers across the organization and is essential to Citywide communication and service delivery. Additionally, Microsoft software is sold at fixed prices through authorized resellers, transitioning to a different reseller would result in significant one-time transition costs with minimal, if any, long- term benefits. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1, as described above. 240 ITEM #:23 DATE:01-27-26 DEPT:ELEC SUBJECT:ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR ONTARIO ROAD SUBSTATION AND MORTENSEN ROAD SUBSTATION IMPROVEMENTS COUNCIL ACTION FORM BACKGROUND: Electric Services is in need of engineering services to support the design and construction management of substation upgrade projects at Ontario Road Substation and Mortensen Road Substation. On August 4, 2025, a Request for Proposals (RFP) document was posted on AmesBids by the City's Purchasing division. On September 10, 2025, seven proposals were received. An evaluation team was formed by staff to review proposals.

The available budget for these projects is $1,653,620, which includes the carryover amounts for engineering and construction for the CIP projects approved for Mortensen Road and Ontario Road substation improvements. The actual amount of the contract awarded to DGR Engineering will be billed on a time and material basis with a cost-not-to-exceed $1,302,700. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Award a contract to DGR Engineering, of Rock Rapids, Iowa, for Engineering Services for Ontario Road Substation and Mortensen Road Substation Improvements, in the amount not-to-exceed $1,302,700. 2. Award a contract to another firm. 3. Reject all proposals. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: Updating and maintaining the Mortensen and Ontario substations is needed in order to maintain reliability of the City's Electric Transmission and Distribution system. Staff has determined that the proposal from DGR Engineering, of Rock Rapids, Iowa, is most acceptable. The experience and qualifications of the personnel, along with a number of similar projects completed by the firm, best fit the needs of the City. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No.1 as stated above.

Application to Interest and Principal: Payment will be credited first to any interest owed to Engineer and then to principal. B. Disputed Invoices: If Owner disputes an invoice, either as to amount or entitlement, then Owner shall promptly advise Engineer in writing of the specific basis for doing so; may withhold only that portion so disputed; and must pay the undisputed portion, subject to the terms of Paragraph 4.01. After a disputed item has been resolved, Engineer shall include the agreed-upon amount on a new invoice. C. Failure to Pay: If Owner fails to make any undisputed payment due Engineer within 30 days after receipt of Engineer’s invoice, then: 1. Engineer may, after giving 15 days’ written notice to Owner, suspend services under this Agreement until Owner has paid in full amounts due. Owner waives any and all claims against Engineer for any such suspension. D. Sales or Use Taxes: If after the Effective Date any governmental entity takes an action that imposes additional sales or use taxes on Engineer’s services or compensation under this Agreement, then Engineer may invoice such additional sales or use taxes for reimbursement by Owner. Owner shall reimburse Engineer for the cost of such invoiced additional sales or use taxes; such reimbursement will be in addition to the compensation to which Engineer is entitled under the terms of Exhibit J. ARTICLE 5—OPINIONS OF COST 5.01 Opinions of Probable Construction Cost A. Engineer’s opinions of probable Construction Cost are to be made on the basis of Engineer’s experience, qualifications, and general familiarity with the construction industry. However, because Engineer has no control over the cost of labor, materials, equipment, or services furnished by others, or over contractors’ methods of determining prices, or over competitive bidding or market conditions, Engineer cannot and does not guarantee that bids, or actual Construction Cost will not vary from opinions of probable Construction Cost prepared by Engineer.

E. Owner and Engineer shall each deliver to the other certificates of insurance evidencing the coverages indicated in Exhibit G. Such certificates must be furnished prior to commencement of Engineer’s services and at renewals thereafter during the life of the Agreement. 1. Upon request by Owner or any other insured, Engineer shall also furnish other evidence of such required insurance, including but not limited to copies of policies and endorsements, documentation of applicable self-insured retentions (if allowed) and deductibles, full disclosure of all relevant exclusions, and evidence of insurance required to be purchased and maintained by Subconsultants and Engineer’s Subcontractors. In any documentation furnished under this provision, Engineer may redact (a) any confidential premium or pricing information and (b) any wording specific to projects or jurisdictions other than those applicable to this Agreement. F. The Owner may choose to procure builder’s risk or similar property insurance for this Project. G. All policies of property insurance relating to the Project, including but not limited to any builder’s risk or similar policy, must allow for waiver of subrogation rights and contain provisions to the effect that in the event of payment of any loss or damage the insurers will have no rights of recovery against any insured thereunder or against Engineer, its Subconsultants, or Engineer’s Subcontractors. Owner and Engineer waive all rights against each other, Contractor, Engineer’s Subcontractors and Subconsultants, and the respective officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants, and subcontractors of each and any of them, for all losses and damages caused by, arising out of, or resulting from any of the perils or causes of loss covered by any such builder’s risk or similar policy and any other property insurance relating to the Project. Owner and Engineer shall take appropriate measures in other Project-related contracts to secure waivers of rights consistent with those set forth in this paragraph. H. All policies of insurance must contain a provision or endorsement that the coverage afforded will not be canceled, and that renewal will not be refused, until at least 10 days’ prior written notice has been given to the primary insured. Upon receipt of such notice, the primary insured must promptly forward a copy of the notice to the other party to this Agreement and replace the coverage being cancelled or reduced to conform to the requirements of this Agreement. I. At any time, Owner may request that Engineer, or Engineer’s Subcontractors or Subconsultants, at Owner’s sole expense but not to exceed the actual amount incurred, provide additional insurance coverage, increased limits, or revised deductibles that are more protective than those specified in Exhibit G. If so requested by Owner, and if commercially available, Engineer shall obtain and shall require Engineer’s Subcontractors or Subconsultants to obtain such additional insurance coverage, different limits, or revised deductibles for such periods of time as requested by Owner, and Exhibit G will be supplemented to incorporate these requirements. 257 EJCDC® E-500, Agreement between Owner and Engineer for Professional Services.

This Agreement is to be governed by the Laws and Regulations of the state of Iowa with venue in the appropriate state and/or federal courts for Story County, Iowa. 6.09 Environmental Condition of Site A. Owner represents to Engineer that, as of the Effective Date, to the best of Owner’s knowledge, no Constituents of Concern, other than those disclosed in writing to Engineer, exist at or adjacent to the Site. B. Undisclosed Constituents of Concern: For purposes of this Paragraph 6.09, the presence at or adjacent to the Site of Constituents of Concern that were not disclosed to Engineer pursuant to Paragraph 6.09.A, in such quantities or circumstances that such Constituents of Concern may present a danger to persons or property exposed to them, will be referred to as “undisclosed” Constituents of Concern. 1. The presence at the Site of materials that are necessary for the execution of the Work, or that are to be incorporated in the Work, and that are controlled and contained pursuant to industry practices, Laws and Regulations, and the requirements of this Agreement or the Construction Contract, are not undisclosed Constituents of Concern. 2. Constituents of Concern that are to be located, identified, studied, removed, or remediated as part of the services under this Agreement are not undisclosed Constituents of Concern. 3. Constituents of Concern that are to be located, identified, studied, removed, or remediated as part of the services under another professional services contract for Owner, or as part of the work under a construction or remediation contract, are not undisclosed Constituents of Concern if Engineer has been informed of the general scope of such contract. C. If Engineer encounters or learns of an undisclosed Constituent of Concern at the Site, then Engineer shall notify (1) Owner and (2) appropriate authorities having jurisdiction if Engineer reasonably concludes that doing so is required by applicable Laws or Regulations. D. It is acknowledged by both parties that Engineer’s scope of services does not include any services related to undisclosed Constituents of Concern. If Engineer or any other party encounters, uncovers, or reveals an undisclosed Constituent of Concern, or if encountered, uncovered, or revealed Constituents of Concern are present in substantially greater quantities or substantially different locations than disclosed or anticipated, or if investigative or remedial action, or other professional services, are necessary or required by applicable Laws and Regulations with respect to such Constituents of Concern, then Engineer may, at its option and without liability for direct, consequential, or any other damages, suspend performance of services on the portion of the Project adversely affected thereby until such portion of the Project is no longer so affected; and Owner shall promptly determine whether 260 EJCDC® E-500, Agreement between Owner and Engineer for Professional Services. Copyright© 2020 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 15 of 24 to retain a qualified expert to evaluate such condition or take any necessary corrective action. E. If the presence at the Site of undisclosed Constituents of Concern, or of Constituents of Concern in substantially greater quantities or in substantially different locations than disclosed or anticipated, adversely affects the performance of Engineer’s services under this Agreement, then: 1. if the adverse effects do not preclude Engineer from completing its Project services in general accordance with this Agreement on unaffected or marginally affected portions of the Project, the Agreement will be amended to reflect changes necessitated by the presence of such Constituents of Concern; or 2. if the adverse effects are of such materiality to the overall performance of Engineer that it cannot complete its services without significant changes to the scope of services, time of completion, and compensation, then Engineer may terminate this Agreement for cause on 15 days’ written notice. F. Owner acknowledges that Engineer is performing professional services for Owner and that Engineer is not and will not be required to become an "owner," “arranger,” “operator,” “generator,” or “transporter” of hazardous substances, as defined in the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), as amended, which are or may be encountered at or near the Site in connection with Engineer’s activities under this Agreement. 6.10 Indemnification and Mutual Waiver A. Indemnification by Engineer: To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, Engineer shall indemnify and hold harmless Owner, and Owner’s officers, directors, members, partners, agents, and employees, from losses, damages, and judgments (including reasonable consultants’ and attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising from third-party claims or actions relating to the Project, provided that any such claim, action, loss, damages, or judgment is attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease, or death, or to injury to or destruction of tangible property (other than the Work itself), but only to the extent caused by any negligent act or omission of Engineer or Engineer’s officers, directors, members, partners, agents, employees, Subconsultants, or Engineer’s Subcontractors. This indemnification provision is subject to and limited by the provisions, if any, agreed to by Owner and Engineer in Exhibit I, “Limitations of Liability." B. Environmental Indemnification: To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless Engineer, its Subconsultants, Engineer’s Subcontractors, and their officers, directors, members, partners, agents, employees, and subconsultants from all claims, costs, losses, damages, actions, and judgments (including reasonable consultants’ and attorney’s fees and expenses) caused by, arising out of, relating to, or resulting from a Constituent of Concern at, on, or under the Site, provided that: 1. any such claim, cost, loss, damages, action, or judgment is attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease, or death, or to injury to or destruction of tangible property (other than the Work itself), including the loss of use resulting therefrom, and 261 EJCDC® E-500, Agreement between Owner and Engineer for Professional Services. Copyright© 2020 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 16 of 24 2. nothing in this paragraph obligates Owner to indemnify any individual or entity from and against the consequences of that individual's or entity's own negligence or willful misconduct. C. No Defense Obligation: The indemnification commitments in this Agreement do not include a defense obligation by the indemnitor unless such obligation is expressly stated. D. Percentage Share of Negligence: To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, a party’s total liability to the other party and anyone claiming by, through, or under the other party for any cost, loss, or damages caused in part by the negligence of the party and in part by the negligence of the other party or any other negligent entity or individual, will not exceed the percentage share that the party’s negligence bears to the total negligence of Owner, Engineer, and all other negligent entities and individuals. If both parties cannot mutually agree on a Percentage Share of Negligence, both parties agree to utilize Dispute Resolution as outline in 6.07. E. Mutual Waiver: To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, Owner and Engineer mutually waive against each other, and the other’s officers, directors, members, partners, agents, employees, subconsultants, and insurers, any and all claims for or entitlement to special, incidental, indirect, or consequential damages arising out of, resulting from, or in any way related to this Agreement or the Project, from any cause or causes. Such excluded damages include but are not limited to loss of profits or revenue; loss of use or opportunity; loss of good will; cost of substitute facilities, goods, or services; and cost of capital. 6.11 Records Retention A. Engineer shall maintain on file in legible form, for a period of fifteen (15) years following completion or termination of its services, or such other period as required by Laws and Regulations and at a minimum until the statute of limitation expires on the project subject to Iowa Code 614.1, all Documents, records (including cost records), and design calculations related to Engineer’s services or pertinent to Engineer’s performance under this Agreement. Upon Owner’s request, Engineer shall provide a copy of any such item to Owner at cost. 6.12 Miscellaneous Provisions A. Notices: Any notice required under this Agreement will be in writing, and delivered: in person (by commercial courier or otherwise) or by registered or certified mail. All such notices are effective upon the date of receipt. B. Survival: Subject to applicable Laws and Regulations, all express representations, waivers, indemnifications, and limitations of liability included in this Agreement will survive its completion or termination for any reason. C. Severability: Any provision or part of the Agreement held to be void or unenforceable under any Laws or Regulations will be deemed stricken, and all remaining provisions will continue to be valid and binding upon Owner and Engineer. D. No Waiver: A party’s non-enforcement of any provision will not constitute a waiver of that provision, nor will it affect the enforceability of that provision or of the remainder of this Agreement. E. Accrual of Claims: To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, all causes of action arising under this Agreement will be deemed to have accrued, and all statutory periods of limitation will commence, no later than the date of Substantial Completion; or, if 262 EJCDC® E-500, Agreement between Owner and Engineer for Professional Services.

All station bus, switches and jumpers must be evaluated and replaced as needed to match the 1200 Amp ultimate capacity of the substation 69kV bus. 8. 69kV BREAKERS AND PT’S: All three SF6 breakers have been purchased and delivered (GE-Alstom). Specifications for new solid-dielectric PTs must be included for three bus and two line PT’s. Assume existing bus-PT fusing will be replaced as well. 9. CONTROL HOUSE, RELAY/CONTROL PANELS, CONTROL WIRING, FIBER OPTIC 10. INTERFACES, RTU: The design scope includes all new control wiring within the substation including control house, yard lighting, security, protection and equipment controls (i.e., for Transformer, 69kV breakers, metal-clad switchgear, PT’s, CT’s, cameras, card readers, gate and lighting) and will require the design/specification of all new control/relay panels. There are existing control conduits and pull boxes which will be partially useful in this project: however, some of the existing conduits between the line breaker foundations and pull boxes will need to be replaced along with new foundations required for all three of the 69kV breakers; scope will include evaluation of existing conduits and replacement, as needed. An existing RTU in the Control House is to be replaced by an SEL RTAC (real time automation controller), which must interface/communicate to Owner’s SCADA system over an existing fiber network; all necessary fiber interfaces settings and programming for RTACs must be included (includes relaying/controls and extension of existing fiber cable, as needed within the Control House). Scope includes design and specifications for four new control/relay panels -- one for the 69kV bus differential and communications, one for transformer protection & RTAC and two for the 69kV line terminals (using SEL relays and programmable automation controls). Assume 69kV line relaying at Stange Road substation and Mortensen Road Substation will additionally be replaced with matching relays at Ontario Road Substation (i.e. 311L’s upgraded to 411L’s for primary and secondary relaying). An existing Fiber communications panel (Fiber MUX and patch panel) is in the Control House in a free-standing rack/enclosure and must be relocated and/or incorporated into a new bus differential/communication panel. An additional RTAC is required inside the metal-clad switchgear (see below) 278 Exhibit A—Engineer’s Services.

STATION SERVICE, BATTERY, CHARGER & CONTROL HOUSE HVAC: The existing station service is provided by a single 120/240V single-phase (7.97kV) pad mounted transformer served from a fused connection to the outdoor 13.8kV bus. This arrangement must be replaced with a dual-source/dual-transformer arrangement with an auto-transfer switch (ATS to be located inside the new metal-clad switchgear—see below). The normal 7.97kV single-phase station service transformer must be served from a fuse section inside the new Metal- clad Switchgear, while an alternate-source transformer must be sourced from an exterior overhead feeder west of the station. Installation of the second station service transformer and conduit/cable-extension for this alternate feed is part of the design effort, including the relocation of the existing transformer and installation of a new/second station service transformer as well as design for related conduits, cable, and pads and service transformer sizing. Owner will provide two (2) single-phase distribution pad mounted transformers from its inventory for station service normal and alternate sources (25 - 75 kVA sizes are common/typical). Adequacy of the existing 125VDC battery set, charger, HVAC and distribution panel must be assessed and upgraded as needed. 12. 13.8 kV METAL-CLAD SWITCHGEAR: Design scope includes the specification and design for replacement of the existing 13.8kV metal-clad switchgear. The existing switchgear is to be replaced by an all-new aisleway switchgear with HVAC and suitable insulation; foundation design is required (extension or replacement, as needed). The new configuration will be a single-level (non- stacked) breaker arrangement of one Main Breaker and five Feeder Breakers, with a roof-entry outdoor bus supply. Scope includes primary and backup SEL relays and controls for all six breaker positions, including a dedicated RTAC and optical arc-flash switchgear protection. All relay and RTAC settings/programming must be included. One of the feeder breaker positions will serve the new Capacitor bank, two will serve existing feeders, two (2) will serve future feeders (to be extended outside the substation to designated locations as part of the scope of work). The new metal-clad switchgear must include fusing for the normal station service source in addition to a fused 13.8kV bus PT and must include an ATS for source-transfer. 13. CAPACITOR BANK: Design scope includes the specification and design of a replacement for the existing 13.8kV outdoor-rack 2400 kVAR capacitor bank. The new capacitor bank will be an enclosed 2-step 4800 kVAR bank (i.e., two - 2400kVAR steps). The capacitor bank design effort includes foundation, protection, and a new conduit/primary cable supply from a 13.8kV feeder breaker in the new metal-clad switchgear. 14. PROGRAMMING AND SETTINGS FOR RELAYS, RTAC AND OTHER CONTROLS: All settings and programming of relays, RTACS, and related controls must be provided in the scope of work. Scope to include specifying microprocessor-type relays and creating settings. All feeder and 69kV relays are to be predominantly SEL-type compatible with existing relays, controls and communications used at City. Owner’s typical distribution feeder relaying includes an SEL-351 with an SEL- 501 for backup; typical 69kV line terminal relaying includes two (2) SEL-411L’s (one as secondary/backup); typical transformer 279 Exhibit A—Engineer’s Services.

Page 10 of 28 protection includes an SEL- 387E, SEL-501 backup, and an SEL-RTAC for communications/alarms. C. Project #2 -- Mortensen Road Substation Scope of Services 1. This project includes the following scope of work: Convert the existing 69kV bus arrangement to accommodate four 69kV SF6 breakers (i.e. two line breakers and two transformer breakers), a second Transformer and a future 13.8kV metal-clad switchgear and a second enclosed capacitor bank (NOTE: for the future switchgear and capacitor bank, the scope of work only includes a dimensional yard layout, except as noted below. The design/specification of a future switchgear and capacitor bank addition is included in the primary scope of work for this project, as well as substructures, which must also be included). 2. REPLACEMENT OF EXISTING TRANSFORMER AND ADDITION OF A SECOND TRANSFORMER: The primary scope of work for this project will include the specification/procurement of a 25 MVA (i.e.15/20/25 MVA rated) transformer to replace the existing 12/16/20 MVA unit and relocation of the existing transformer to a new foundation for a second transformer. The existing foundation and oil containment must be evaluated and sized for the larger 15/20/25 MVA unit, replacing or upgrading the existing transformer pad and oil containment, as needed. Design for the second transformer position will include a new foundation and oil containment (also sized for an ultimate 15/20/25 MVA transformer). Conduits and control wiring are necessary for the installation of the second transformer and its associated 69kV breaker; assume that the second transformer (i.e. the relocated existing transformer placed on the new transformer foundation) will be made ready for service and energized as an active emergency spare (using temporary 13.8kV cabling to the 13.8kV Main Breaker overhead bus). A plan for protection changes and connections needed to effect the connection of 13.8kV temporary cables for this purpose must also be included in the design effort. 3. SURVEYING & SOIL BORES: Scope of work must include surveying to establish necessary grades/elevations and foundation location controls. Assume a minimum of seven soil boring samples will need to be taken for foundations and grounding design. 4. FENCE, GROUNDING, SHIELDING: Grounding and shielding must be analyzed and upgraded to current IEEE standards. Assume all new Polymer-housed Lightning Arrestors will be required for 69kV and 13.8kV overhead bus and equipment. Assume all new fencing will be installed, including a motor-operated slide-gate and all new station interior and outside-perimeter surface rock. Options for security fencing are to be investigated and recommended. The evaluation must include options and budgetary cost estimates for basic visual screening (slatted chain link fencing, for example) and ballistic-resistant fencing (such as suitable pre-cast concrete fence panels with louvered/motorized slide gate, for example). The slide gate with the second option must be a solid, or louvered visually obstructing material finished to match fencing and ballistic- resistant to the extent practicable. 280 Exhibit A—Engineer’s Services.

LANDSCAPING: No landscaping changes are anticipated for this substation, unless they are recommended as part of overall station security enhancements. 6. SECURITY: Design of station security must include conduits and mounting provisions for card entry—this includes a motor-operated slide-gate and card- entry for the Control House with yard surveillance video cameras. Assume two PTZ cameras with mounting provisions/poles as needed and intrusion alarms (IR/video motion detection, for example.). 7. 69kV BUS ARRANGEMENT, BREAKERS, PT’S: The two existing 69kV line-OCB’s will be replaced by two new SF6 breakers; two additional SF6 breakers will be installed for transformer protection (one is for a 69kV transformer-fuse replacement and the other is for a future/second transformer). Note: the 69kV SF6 breakers are GE/Alstom type and have been procured/delivered. An additional 69kV bus-tie switch and a second set of bus PT’s is required for this new bus configuration. The 69kV bus must be reconfigured to accommodate these additions. At a minimum, the 69kV design scope will include the specification and procurement of three new 69kV switches and switch- supports (i.e. one bus tie-switch and two additional transformer breaker isolation switches), one additional 69kV bus-PT/fuse support, control conduits/wiring and 69kV transmission line-takeoff design (i.e. design review of existing structures). A total of eight new solid dielectric PT’s will need to be specified along with six new bus PT fuses/holders (the two existing line PT’s are mounted on the A- Frame takeoff structures). While it is anticipated that the majority of existing support structures may be relocated and reused in the new arrangement, it must be assumed in the scope of work that the suitability of all existing 69kV structures must be evaluated and a determination made as to which (if any) components are suitable for reuse and which must be replaced with all-new structural components -- therefore, the specification and procurement effort should assume a worst-case scenario of full replacement of all 69kV structures and bus components. All station bus, switches and jumpers must be evaluated and replaced as needed to match the 1200 Amp ultimate capacity of the 69kV current path. Overall bus design must be included to satisfy structural and electrical capacity design requirements. New foundations will be needed for four 69kV breakers and for all 69kV support structures including switches and PT supports. Assume that construction will be staged to complete as much preparatory foundation work as possible without a planned station outage ahead of major equipment deliveries. 8. CONTROL HOUSE, RELAY/CONTROL PANELS, CONTROL WIRING, FIBER OPTIC INTERFACES: Scope includes all new control wiring (and/or fiber) and conduits within the substation including Control House, yard lighting, security, protection and equipment controls (i.e. for Transformer, 69kV breakers, metal-clad switchgear, PT’s, CT’s, cameras, card readers, gate, lighting) and must assume the design/specification of all new control/relay panels and Control House wiring. There are two (2) existing RTU’s (SEL 2032’s – one for 69kV, one for 13.8kV) in the Control House that must be replaced with SEL RTAC’s, which will need to communicate to Owner’ SCADA system over an existing fiber network; all necessary fiber interfaces settings and programming for 281 Exhibit A—Engineer’s Services.

Copyright© 2020 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 12 of 28 RTACs must be included (includes fiber optic interfaces and relaying/controls). Scope must include design and specification of five (5) new control/relay panels, as follows: one (1) for the 69kV bus differential, two (2) for transformer protection (RTACs to be included with these panels) and two (2) for the 69kV line terminals – all will use SEL relays and programmable automation controls (RTACs). There are five (5) existing panels which will either need to be modified or replaced with all new panel fronts. Assume 69kV line relaying at Vet Med substation and Ontario Road substation will additionally be replaced with matching relays at Mortensen Road substation (i.e. 311L’s upgraded to 411L’s for primary and secondary relaying). An existing fiber communications enclosure is also located inside the Control House containing a fiber patch panel, MUX system and an SEL 2032 – this one must be replaced by one of the RTAC’s in a Transformer panel. 9. STATION SERVICE, BATTERY, CHARGER & CONTROL HOUSE HVAC: The existing station service is provided by dual-sourced 120/240V single-phase (7.97kV) transformer with a wall-mounted ATS inside the Control House. Assume that review of sizing of the station service transformers and ATS is included in the design scope and that specifications will be provided for any upgrades needed to any of these service components (transformers, ATS, service conductor). Adequacy of the existing battery, charger, HVAC and distribution panel must also be assessed and upgraded as needed. Owner will provide replacement single-phase padmount distribution transformers from its inventory for this project, if needed (25kVA – 75kVA are common/typical sizes available). 10. 13.8 kV METAL-CLAD SWITCHGEAR: For the second transformer, a dimensioned plan is to be provided for the addition of a future dual-sourced metal-clad switchgear and tie breaker (assume a ten-breaker lineup; see “Project #2 Option”, below for more detail on this switchgear configuration). All conduits needed for the future switchgear and capacitor bank additions must be included in the design effort and installed with the construction phase to the extent practicable. Additional vaults/pullboxes may be needed to complete the initial construction phase with provisions for the necessary future conduit extensions to add the switchgear, capacitor bank and related power cabling and control wiring. 11. CAPACITOR BANK: Design scope includes the specification and design of a replacement for the existing 13.8kV outdoor-rack 2400 kVAR capacitor bank. The new capacitor bank will be an enclosed 2-step 4800 kVAR bank (i.e., two – 2400 kVAR steps) that will continue to be served from a fused connection from the existing outdoor 13.8kV main, but additional spare/future conduits must be additionally extended for a feed from a breaker from the future metal-clad switchgear. The capacitor bank design effort includes foundation, conduits and a new primary cable supply from the existing main bus connection point. Controls will be extended to the Control House for connection to one of the RTAC’s. Design scope additionally includes the foundation and conduits necessary for a future identical second capacitor bank for the second transformer (to be sourced from the future metal-clad switchgear). The station dimensional layout must include both capacitor banks along with the future metal-clad switchgear. 282 Exhibit A—Engineer’s Services.

PROGRAMMING AND SETTINGS FOR RELAYS, RTAC AND OTHER CONTROLS: All settings and programming of relays, RTACS, and related controls must be provided in the scope of work. Scope to include recommending relays and creating settings. All feeder and 69kV relaying are to be predominantly SEL-type compatible with existing relays, controls and communications. Owner’s typical distribution feeder relaying includes an SEL-351 with an SEL-501 backup; Owner’s typical 69kV line terminal relaying includes two (2) SEL-411L’s (one as secondary/backup); typical transformer protection includes an SEL- 387E, SEL- 501 backup; SEL-RTACs are commonly used for communications/alarms. D. Project # 2 Option: Metal-clad Switchgear and Second Capacitor Bank for Mortensen Road Substation: This scope of work is included in addition to Project # 2 to include design and specifications for a 13.8kV metal-clad switchgear and second capacitor bank. 1. 13.8 kV METAL-CLAD SWITCHGEAR: This optional design scope includes the specification and design for the installation of a new 13.8kV metal-clad switchgear. This switchgear will be configured as a dual-feed from two 13.8kV transformer sources. The complete configuration will be comprised of ten (10) breaker cells; two (2) main breakers, one (1) tie breaker, two (2) capacitor bank breakers and five (5) feeder breakers. This will be an aisleway single-level (non- stacked) switchgear with HVAC and suitable insulation, including foundation design and underground feeder extensions to existing feeders. One of the feeder breaker positions will serve a future feeder (to be extended outside the substation to a designated location as part of the scope of work). Both main bus sources will be roof-entry from outdoor bus. Breaker protection scope includes primary and backup SEL relays and controls for all ten breaker positions, including a dedicated 13.8kV RTAC and optical arc-flash switchgear protection. All relay and RTAC settings/programming must be included. The additional scope of work includes the rerouting/extension of fiber to the metal-clad switchgear from the Control House. 2. CAPACITOR BANK: This design scope includes the specification and installation of a new enclosed 2-step 4800 kVAR bank (i.e., two – 2400 kVAR steps) including the extension of conduits, power cable and control cable/fiber from the respective breakers to both capacitor banks (for the first capacitor included in the primary scope of work, this represents an incremental scope of work change for related modifications to accommodate the metal-clad switchgear addition). 3. A cost estimate for the procurement and installation of the optional switchgear and capacitor must be included as a separately quoted proposal/item. Due to uncertainty in the final schedule of this phase of work, assume a separate bid effort will be needed to acquire the switchgear, capacitor and installation services of this optional scope of work. All protection and RTAC settings/programming of all relays and controls related to this addition must be included. E. Project Administration 1.

The State of Washington procurement contract was utilized for this purchase. The funding sources approved for this project are summarized below: Funding Source Funding Federal Local Total Bus & Bus Facilities Discretionary (Section 5339)$2,218,500 $391,500 $2,610,000 Urbanized Area Formula Funding (Section 5307)$2,034,634 $359,053 $2,393,687 STBG Funding $225,000 $56,250 $281,250 Additional Local Funding $504,543 $504,543 Total Project Budget $4,478,134 $1,311,346 $5,789,480 After the contract was issued, new tariff policies were implemented that affected the final cost of several vehicle components. The State of Washington contract includes a provision that allows manufacturers to pass through costs incurred due to tariffs. CyRide has received delivery of all five BEBs. Following final assembly, Gillig notified CyRide that the impact of recently implemented tariff policies was $12,951.12 per bus, resulting in a total cost increase of $64,755.60. This adjustment represents a 1.12% increase to the overall project budget and increases the total purchase price from $5,789,480 to $5,854,235.60. CyRide, in coordination with the Purchasing Division, reviewed the documentation provided by Gillig and determined that the cost adjustment reflected actual cost incurred and was calculated in accordance with the provisions of the State of Washington procurement contract. An additional $64,755.60 in local funding is required to support this change order. Staff has evaluated the project budget and recommends using funds from the Battery Electric Bus Reserve Fund to support the budget shortfall. 318 The revised project budget is shown below: Funding Source Funding Federal Local Total Bus & Bus Facilities Discretionary (Section 5339)$2,218,500 $391,500.00 $2,610,000.00 Urbanized Area Formula Funding (Section 5307)$2,034,634 $359,053.00 $2,393,687.00 STBG Funding $225,000 $56,250.00 $281,250.00 Local Funding (Previously Committed) $504,543.00 $504,543.00 BEB Reserve Fund (Change Order) $64,755.60 $64,755.60 Total Project Budget $4,478,134 $1,376,101.60 $5,854,235.60 Approval of this change order is required for CyRide to complete acceptance of the new vehicles. The Transit Board of Trustees approved the requested change order and increased the contract total to $5,8854,235.60 for Gillig LLC at their meeting on January 15, 2026. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve the cost-related change order and establish a new total contract amount of $5,854,235.60 for the purchase of five battery electric buses from Gillig LLC of Livermore, California. 2. Do not approve the requested change order. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approving the tariff-related change order and new contract amount will ensure that the five battery electric buses are fully funded. Utilizing the Battery Electric Bus Reserve Fund allows CyRide to accommodate the cost increase using existing capital reserves and complete the purchase in compliance with procurement requirements and Transit Asset Management objectives. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1, as described above. 319 ITEM #:25 DATE:01-27-26 DEPT:PW SUBJECT:2022/23 CONCRETE PAVEMENT IMPROVEMENTS - (BROOKRIDGE AVE, RIDGEWOOD AVE, LEE ST, 9TH ST, PARK WAY, & ALLEY) COUNCIL ACTION FORM BACKGROUND: This annual program utilizes current repair and reconstruction techniques to improve concrete streets. These pavement improvements are needed to restore structural integrity, serviceability, and rideability. This project was located along Brookridge Avenue, Ridgewood Avenue, Lee Street, Park Way and 9th Street. This project included the removal and replacement of the existing street pavement, upgraded pedestrian crossing facilities, storm and sanitary sewer repairs, and replacement watermain along Ridgewood Avenue and 9th Street. On April 25, 2023, City Council awarded a contract to Shekar Engineering, P.L.C. of Des Moines, Iowa, in the amount of $4,203,260.58. One change order was administratively approved by staff in the amount of $24,507.97. Change Order No. 2 (this action), a deduction in the amount of $286,617.83, includes a reduction in the quantities for subgrade preparation, subgrade treatment, special backfill, connection to existing pipe structures, and asphalt pavement. These deduction occurred due to the project being bid as an alternate for concrete versus asphalt pavement surfacing. The cost for concrete was more cost effective and allowed for reduction in items related to not utilizing asphalt pavement. The balancing change order reflects the final field measured quantities during construction. Construction was completed in the amount of $3,941,150.72. Revenues and expenses associated with this program are as follows: Description Revenue Expenses 22/23 Concrete Improvements (G.O. Bonds)$3,600,000 22/23 Water System Improvements (Water Fund) 650,000 22/23 & 23/24 Alley Improvements (G.O.

ATTACHMENT(S): ONTARIO HOUSING DEVELOPMENT 1.pdf Administration 515.239.5105 main 515.239.5142 fax 515 Clark Ave. P.O. Box 811 Ames, IA 50010 www.CityofAmes.org 325 Staff Report Workforce Housing Subdivision – Ontario January 27, 2026 BACKGROUND: On December 16, 2025 the City Council referred a letter from Brenda Dryer, Senior Vice President of the Ames Regional Economic Alliance, requesting the City’s support for a potential workforce housing project. Brenda has informed the City Council that local developers are in the process of acquiring 17 acres of land currently owned by Iowa State University at the intersection of Ontario Street and Scholl Road. This was the site previously suggested for the Healthy Life Center. (See Attached Map) What currently is envisioned are 109 residential units in the subdivision. On the land west of Scholl Road will be 84 attached housing units of which 30 units will be owner -occupied and 54 units will be rentals. On the east side of Scholl Road will be 25 detached, owner- occupied residential units. Therefore, in total there will be 54 rental units and 55 owner - occupied units. In order to meet the requirements for this new subdivision, Scholl Road, which will bisect the new subdivision, must be reconstructed to City standards for it to be dedicated to the City. The developers are proposing to assume responsibility for reconstructing at their cost the section of Scholl Road from Ontario Street north to the Railroad right -of-way in accordance with City standards. In return for the developers assuming responsibility to reconstruct the Scholl road segment at their cost: • They want the City to provide a TIF Rebate incentive to be paid to them annually until the cost of the road reconstruction is paid back to them, or up to 10 years, whichever comes first. Although the developers are requesting up to 10 years of a TIF incentive, Brenda has noted that it is the goal of developers to construct and sell homes as quickly as possible. Therefore, their goal is to have enough construction and sale activity to drive a TIF Rebate payoff in 5 years. • They will agree to a maximum sale price of $425,000 for all homes within this subdivision (assuming no additional negative or major impacts to market conditions). 326 They are emphasizing that focus of this subdivision will be the creation of more affordable and attainable workforce housing in the City of Ames. The Ames Regional Economic Alliance, through Brenda Dryer, is agreeing to: • Assist the City in submitting a request and justifying to the Iowa Economic Development Authority (IEDA) Director the need to approve a reduction of the LMI set-aside requirement for this Residential TIF project from 50.07% to 20%. If approved by the IEDA Director, this percentage reduction will result in the developers being paid back quicker for their cost to reconstruct Scholl Road. • Assist the developers in preparing and submitting an application to the IEDA for Workforce Housing Tax Credits. NEXT STEPS: Should the City Council agree to support this proposed development, the following steps will be required: 1. Developer initiated Comprehensive Plan amendment from Government to either RN-2 or RN-3 2. Developer led Neighborhood Meeting to describe the intended project 3. Rezoning of Site with a PUD Overlay and Major Site Development Plan 4. Preliminary Plat approval 5. Final Plat approval 6. Urban Renewal Area and adoption of a TIF Rebate ordinance 7. Development Agreement for Residential TIF Rebate with the developers for the cost of reconstructing a section of Scholl Road and for LMI Set-aside. (It should be noted that the annual rebate to the developers will be subject to a non-appropriation clause in order to not count as a City debt.) 327 STAFF COMMENTS: In recent months the Mayor and City Manager have been discussing with former ISU President, Wendy Wintersteen, about the possibility of the University selling off some of their “unused” land for an infill, workforce housing project. President Wintersteen agreed with the City Council’s desire to facilitate additional residential opportunities that would benefit the faculty, staff, and students at ISU as well as the total community. In order to accomplish this task, the 17 acres of land on the north side of Ontario Street bisected by Scholl Road recently were offered for sale by the University. A group of local developers submitted the successful bid for this land and are in the final stages of acquiring the property from the University. Therefore, Staff believes the request for a partnership in this endeavor to create an infill, workforce housing subdivision is in harmony with the City Council’s goal for increasing residential opportunities. The developers are willing to establish a maximum sale price for the residential units built in this new subdivision, which is something the Council has expressed interest in obtaining from developers seeking city incentives. Assuming 1) the proposed cap on the sale price for all residential units, 2) the requested length of the TIF repayment schedule, and 3) the mix of rental versus owner-occupied residential units are acceptable to the City Council, the Staff would support moving ahead with the steps outlined above to support the proposed development. 328 26567 sq.ft. 0.61 acres LOT A 417469 sq.ft. 9.58 acres LOT 1 242642 sq.ft. 5.57 acres LOT 2 CITY OF AMES ROW SCHOLL RD 26' URBAN SECTION IOWA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHOLL RD RURAL SECTION ONTARIO STREETONTARIO STREET MIN N E S O T A A V E (R U R A L S E C T I O N ) RAILROAD R.O.W.

Currently, the Ames Human Relations Commission (AHRC) does not investigate discrimination complaints and has not since 2019. Instead, the AHRC has a cooperative agreement with the Iowa Office of Civil Rights, which handles complaints and investigations. Attachment A includes data on discrimination complaints between 2020-2023 in Ames. The 2024 data has not been made available yet, however, on December 16, 2025, the City Attorney, per the direction of City Council, submitted an open records request for the 2024 data from the Iowa Office of Civil Rights (IOCR). The City Attorney received a brief response from the IOCR, stating that they can compile and share the City's 2024 data for a fee of $62.28. The payment has been remitted but at the time this report is being written, the data has not been received yet. Staff believes the data will be received in the next week. In preparing a draft ordinance for adding gender identity as a protected class to Municipal C o d e Chapter 14, staff has conducted additional research on other Iowa cities that have similar local provisions in their human rights ordinances. While these local provisions vary, they often include language around the administration and enforcement of these provisions. In order to bring forward a comprehensive draft ordinance, the City Manager ’s Office and the City Attorney’s Office have been working closely together to define the components to include in the ordinance. At this time, additional guidance from City Council is needed on the specific elements below. The direction City Council provides will be incorporated into the draft ordinance. ELEMENT #1: INVESTIGATING DISCRIMINATION COMPLAINTS As mentioned, the AHRC does not currently investigate discrimination complaints, but rather defers discrimination complaints to the Iowa Office of Civil Rights. Since gender identity is no longer a protected class under Iowa Code 216, any complaints of discrimination on the basis of gender identity is outside the jurisdiction of the Iowa Office of Civil Rights, and therefore, that office could not investigate the case. A process would need to be established locally for managing complaints of gender identity discrimination cases. Below are some options for managing discrimination cases going forward: 330 Option 1: The City investigates all gender identity complaints/The State continues to investigate all other discrimination complaints. This option involves continuing to refer discrimination complaints for protected classes within State code to the IOCR, and requires the City to establish its own administrative investigation process related to gender identity discrimination complaints. Option 2: The City investigates all discrimination complaints including gender identity and does not refer discrimination complaints to the State. This option will require the City to establish its own administrative investigation process for all discrimination complaints for protected classes under the State and for gender identity. Staff Comments: According to the data provided by the State of Iowa, from 2020-2023, there were seven discrimination complaints on the basis of gender identity (see attachment A). Staff is recommending that the Council pursue Option 1 and direct that the intake and investigation of gender identity complaints be managed by an Assistant City Manager, or his/her designee, and that the City Attorney, or his/her designee, determine if there is sufficient evidence to warrant a municipal infraction citation. Staff is not recommending Option 2 for several reasons. The resources required to effectively conduct this work is unknown, but likely greater than Option 1. Additionally, the Legal Department does not currently work on, or specialize in, discrimination law and, therefore, hiring outside legal counsel might be necessary. ELEMENT #2: MUNICIPAL INFRACTION PENALTY LEVELS Per the memo from City Attorney Mark Lambert on December 9, 2025, the Council should decide what level the civil penalty should be: "Unless a higher penalty amount is specifically adopted, the default penalties for a municipal infraction in Ames are $30 for a first offense, $100 for first repeat offense, and $200 for subsequent repeat offenses (Section 1.9, Ames Municipal Code). Iowa Code allows cities to establish civil penalties for municipal infractions at not more than $750 for a first offense, and not more than $1,000 for a repeat offense." Option 1: $750 for first offense, and $1,000 for repeat offense(s). Option 2: $30 for first offense, $100 for first repeat offense, $200 for subsequent repeat offenses Option 3: Any amounts between Option 1 and Option 2 Staff Comments: Staff believes that the default penalty of $30 for the first offense, $100 for the first repeat offense, and $200 for subsequent repeat offenses is insufficient to prevent discrimination from occurring and, therefore, would recommend that Council adopt the greatest financial penalty allowed, Option 1. ELEMENT #3: MEDIATION The mediation process is an opportunity for both parties to attempt to resolve their disagreement through a third-party mediator (City staff), prior to or during the investigation. 331 This is a voluntary process that carries no-fault terms should a settlement be negotiated. Upon a mediation agreement, all the parties sign a written agreement, which records the terms of the settlement, and the case administratively closes. Option 1: Incorporate a provision for mediation between parties involved in a discrimination complaint. Option 2: Do not incorporate a provision for mediation between parties involved in a discrimination complaint. Staff Recommendation: Staff believes that mediation can be a powerful tool to resolve disputes in a manner that is satisfactory for parties involved in the complaint. It also reduces the time needed for a full investigation. Therefore, it is the staff’s recommendation to include a provision on mediation. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve: a. Option 1 as outlined above for Element 1: Investigating Discrimination Complaints b. Option 1 as outlined above for Element 2: Municipal Infraction Penalty Levels c. Option 1 as outlined above for Element 3: Mediation 2. Approve other options for the three elements above. 3. Refer back to staff for more information. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: By providing additional guidance on the three elements above, staff can incorporate them into a draft ordinance adding gender identity as a protected class to Municipal Code Chapter 14. Based on the information provided above, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council approve Alternative #1.

On May 27, 2025, the City entered into an option agreement with Keystone Equity Group (KEG) to purchase the 1.81-acre property contingent on the developer receiving state workforce housing tax credit approval and entitlements to construct up to 12 owner- occupied single-family homes. The developer was notified of the tax credit award in October. The Rezoning, Preliminary Plat, and Major Site Development Plan are the first approvals to be sought in connection with the option agreement. A Final Plat and Development Agreement are anticipated at the end of February prior to KEG closing on the property. The subject property is unused right-of-way related to formerly planned extension of Harrison Road over the railroad tracks located to the west side of the site (see Attachment A for Location Map showing existing conditions). The Harrison Road extension is no longer viable and the City Council identified the site as an ownership housing infill opportunity site in 2024. More information on the history of this property, surrounding area, and outreach on development concepts can be found in the Addendum. The applicant’s narrative of the project and its relationship to the PUD standards is included as Attachment B. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT: The site has frontage on Welbeck and widens towards the west/railroad tracks where the units are proposed to be located (see Attachment C for Site Plan excerpts and Attachment D for Preliminary Plat excerpts). The development concept has open area along Welbeck with homes located to the middle and rear of the site. The first home is approximately 150 feet from Welbeck. The layout includes a centralized private street (Harrison Court) with the 12 units situated on both sides. The proposed plan includes 12 housing units with two different single-family attached types of configurations (see Attachment E for Architectural Plans). There are three buildings of two- story bi-attached homes (six dwellings total) plus two buildings with two-story three-unit attached homes (six additional dwellings). Each unit will have three bedrooms. The bi-attached homes have two-car garages, while the three-unit attached homes have single-car garages. Each home includes a driveway that provides additional parking area. Three guest parking spaces are also provided along Harrison Court. Harrison Court is located in an outlot along with open space area to be maintained by a 338 Homeowners Association. The private street is 22 feet wide with a “T” shaped dead-end to accommodate minimum fire access standards and take advantage of the shape of the property. A sidewalk will be located on one side of Harrison Court. A new public sidewalk is proposed to close the gap in the sidewalk along Welbeck Drive frontage. The private street design, in lieu of a typical 26-foot wide public street, is approvable as part of a PUD Overlay. Landscaping within the project includes a street tree plan with 12 trees. Additional evergreen trees are proposed along the north and west sides of the site for aesthetics and buffering. The Major Site Development Plan (MSDP) accompanying the PUD request will be the controlling plan for development of the site upon approval of the PUD Overlay with the pedestrian, parking, landscaping, and building features. The Preliminary Plat controls for lot layout and public improvements intended to serve the individual lots. PUD OVERLAY: The proposed rezoning to a PUD allows for flexibility in certain development standards such as setbacks and lot sizes, which supports different housing types and densities that otherwise may not be achievable under the base zoning. Deviations from these zoning standards are allowed when specifically approved by City Council and compatibility standards are met regarding the design of the units (See Addendum for Findings and Standards). To meet these standards, main entrances are proposed to be defined with a covered porch and setback no more than 12 feet so that garage does not define the front façade. DEVIATIONS: The proposed PUD primarily allows for more individually platted lots than would otherwise be feasible under base zone requirements as a result of decreased minimum lot areas for the townhome units, reduced internal lot line setbacks, and other deviations. The overall unit count (12) is consistent with maximum site density calculations. The deviations allow for more ownership housing opportunities by allowing for individual lots to be created, and avoid larger, more uniform buildings with attached units. A garage face setback deviation is requested from the required 25 feet to 20 feet for all lots. A 20-foot setback is a minimum expectation to ensure vehicles parked in front of a garage do not overhang onto the sidewalk. Due to a curve in the road and its position as a corner lot, Lot 3 requires an additional deviation for driveway dimensions. The driveway configuration ranges from 20 feet to a 17.5-foot setback for the southern half. The 20-foot segment allows for the parking of regular sized vehicle while the 17.5-foot section could only accommodate smaller vehicle without overhang. As the sidewalk is on the opposite side of the street, this does not present encroachment issues for pedestrians. Staff supports the partial driveway deviation as meeting the intent of providing for function driveway parking that does not impact pedestrian travel. All requested deviations are summarized in the Addendum. 339 PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the proposed project at its January 7, 2026, meeting. The Commission received three letters of opposition and three members of the public spoke at the meeting opposing the project. All of the speakers were property owners west of the site with property along Ballentine. Primary concerns from the public and Commission related to loss of informal open space, potential traffic in the area, railroad proximity, and the compatibility of the number of units designed as attached homes. The Commission's initial discussion focused on open space and the effects of allowing for a private street, including parking. City staff described City Council's prior discussion of the site as informal open space and how it relates to the City's parks policies. Staff also described infill development as excepted from the PUD-required 10% open space and a determination of open space as a case-by-case review. In this case, due to the clustering of the dwellings and reduced lot sizes, the site provides approximately 50% open space. The largest area of open space is in the front of the subject property, between Welbeck and the dwellings. Staff also described how perimeter setbacks and stormwater management features affected the layout of the site and common areas. Staff noted that even if the open space were required, the Zoning Ordinance would not require it to be public, as is the desire of neighboring property owners. City Council previously determined not to use the site as a public park due to its proximity to other existing parks. A Commissioner asked if on-street parking would be permitted. Other than the three guest parking spaces, no on street parking is permitted. The guest spaces would be managed by the HOA. All units provide at least two parking spaces in an attached garage or associated driveway. The Commission discussed how common private streets are and how they differ from public streets. Staff responded by describing private streets allowing reduced right-of-way widths that can better accommodate an infill development. They are allowed by the subdivision standards to serve a small group of dwellings and are common for developments with single- family attached homes. Harrison Court is a dead-end street but does have a turnaround to accommodate a fire truck and meets other Fire Code standards for lane widths and hydrants. The road with is four feet less than a public street, and a cul-de-sac would be required with public streets rather than a hammerhead. Without the private street, the proposed configuration would not be viable. Regarding the railroad, the Commission discussed other nearby properties along the railroad and setbacks. The two three-unit buildings are proposed to be setback 28 feet from the shared property line with the railroad. The 28 feet includes the small area of private rear yard and the intervening common area This setback was necessary due to the shape of the lot and need to shift all units west to ensure setbacks from the north and south perimeter property lines were met without reducing the bi-attached home sizes. The Commission deliberation focused on the compatibility of the 12-unit proposal with the surroundings. The Commission voted 4-1 to recommend approval of the proposed rezoning with PUD, Preliminary Plat, and Major Site Development Plan. 340 Since the Commission meeting, the landscape plan for the development has been revised by the applicant to include seven coniferous trees on along the railroad property line to provide a buffer to the railroad. These trees were included with the Site Plan since the area they are proposed to be planted in is common area and individual homeowners would not be able to choose their own landscaping for the rear yard. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve for Harrison Pointe, a proposed development located on City surplus land west of the intersection of Harrison Road and Welbeck Drive: a. On first reading the rezoning to Suburban Residential Low Density (FS-RL) with a Planned Unit Development (PUD) Overlay b. A Major Site Development Plan c. A Preliminary Plat 2. Approve with modifications or conditions to any one of the rezoning to Suburban Residential Low Density (FS-RL) with a PUD Overlay, Major Site Development Plan, or Preliminary Plat for Harrison Pointe, a proposed development located on City surplus land west of the intersection of Harrison Road and Welbeck Drive. 3. Deny on first reading the rezoning to Suburban Residential Low Density (FS-RL) with a PUD Overlay, Major Site Development Plan, and Preliminary Plat for Harrison Pointe, by finding the proposal does not meet rezoning requirements or the standards of the Chapter 23 Subdivision Code. 4. Defer action on this request and refer it back to City staff and/or the applicant for additional information. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff finds that the proposed Rezoning to a Planned Unit Development (PUD) with a Major Site Development Plan and Preliminary Plat complies with the proposed underlying base zone standards and the PUD standards, with the deviations identified on the site plan and preliminary plat and described within the addendum. The proposed development of the site is consistent with Ames Plan 2040 policies for infill. The development maintains a scale compatible with adjacent single-family homes. The PUD Overlay tool is designed to allow for unique designs on smaller sites, which is especially beneficial for infill sites. The PUD allows for “postage stamp” lots for the single- family attached homes, maintaining significant open space and clustering the development at the western end of the site. The design supports creation of ownership housing lots. In this case with the City as the property owner, a covenant will be recorded against the property at the time of sale requiring the homes to be owner-occupied. In addition, architectural features of the buildings and site layout with a sidewalk connection to Welbeck Drive meet the intent of the PUD and compatibility standards for deviations. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council approve Alternative #1, as described above. 341 City Council should also be aware that with approval of Alternative #1, the Developer will need to proceed with Final Plat and approval of the Development Agreement to complete the terms of the sale of the property. Staff anticipates the Final Plat and Development Agreement to be available for approval at February 24 City Council meeting.

It was platted Lot J with the Bloomington Heights Subdivision for this purpose, but no companion right-of-way was created on the west side of the tracks at this location with the development of Northridge Heights. Since the land no longer has any potential street use, the City Council requested staff explore the possibility of developing an infill housing project at the site. Supporting infill housing is consistent with economic development goals of the City for production of additional housing in support of needed expansion of workforce for current and expansion of industry and business in the City and region. With the City and developer entering into the purchase agreement, the status of the land was clarified as a lot when the right-of-way was subsequently vacated by City Council on July 8th, 2025. SURROUNDING AREA Surrounding land to the north, east, and south is zoned RL. To the west across the railroad is zoned FS RL. The RL land immediately abutting the site is developed as single-family detached homes on standard lots. There are 8 homes whose rear yards abut the subject property to the north and south. East along Harrison, approximately 200 feet from the subject property, is a Planned Residence Development (F-PRD) with a mix of small-lot detached single- family lots and bi-attached homes. Further to the east, across Hyde Avenue is a medium density townhome development. OUTREACH As part of City Council’s identification of the subject property as an infill site and an RFP for development of the site, an initial neighborhood meeting was held on April 11, 2024. Fifteen neighbors attended. At this meeting, staff presented an overview of the site conditions and conceptual housing options. Participants indicated they did not support any of the presented housing concepts. The meeting participants described how their children use the site as open space. Participants value the land as open space for informal use by residents. The 365 8 participants in the 2024 outreach meeting expressed concern about drainage issues in the area but provided no specific suggestions on use of the site for housing. Council weighed this feedback with housing goals and decided in 2024 to proceed with an RFP for development of the site. A developer was not identified until the spring of 2025. Several neighbors have continued to be involved in discussions and provided comments to Council at the time of the hearing on the sale of the property that they still did not support development of the site. AMES PLAN 2040 The property is designated as RN-2 or as a fully established neighborhood that is “typically built in the second half of the 20th century to the present. Largely single-family, with some attached and duplex structures. Layout of neighborhoods often has larger blocks and curvilinear local street patterns.” Plan 2040 encourages infill in Redirection Areas (larger areas where changes in development patterns are anticipated over the next 20 years), along with scattered sites that could support smaller infill opportunities including the subject property. Policies to evaluate and support infill housing options include: G3-1. Identify infill properties and areas within the existing built-up area, focusing on sites that are 1) vacant and buildable… Within the RN-2 designation, a development guideline for infill includes “on infill sites, use scale and design to respect context.” Other plan policies also emphasize infill compatibility and the protection of neighborhood character through considering scale and other design elements to minimize conflicts with adjacent properties. The proposed home are two-stories—similar in massing to the adjacent properties. The largest buildings contain three units and are 90 feet in total width. The three-unit structures back up to the railroad and do not border the single-family homes. The bi-attached units interface with the adjacent single-family homes to the north and south. The buildings total 52 feet in width, similar to a single-family home with an attached garage. The homes are situated in a manner to create space and separation of the units to the extent practicable from the existing homes. GENERAL DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS Parking A minimum of two parking spaces is required per unit. The bi-attached homes have a two- car garages, while the three-unit attached homes have single-car garages. Each three- unit attached home has sufficient driveway space to allow an additional vehicle to park stacked in front of the garage space. Three guest parking spaces are also provided along Harrison Court. 366 9 Streets and Traffic A 5-foot sidewalk on the south and west side of Harrison Court is proposed. The sidewalk design meets the Private Street standards for pedestrian circulation within the development and connects the homes to the public sidewalk. A new public sidewalk will be constructed on Welbeck Drive closing the gap in the current sidewalk along the subject property. Harrison Court is proposed to be 22 feet in width with no on-street parking, except for the three parking spaces. A typical public street is 26 feet with an allowance for on-street parking. The minimum backup area for a parking space is typically 24 feet. Street curbs are rolled allowing additional maneuvering room along the narrower street. The proposed street width allows for functional two-way traffic due to the low volume of traffic. The street is also configured in a “T” shape to meet fire truck turnaround requirements. Private Street standards are included in the section of the addendum on the Preliminary Plat. Landscaping For residential subdivisions, landscaping requirements are for street trees to be planted every 30-50 feet along the street. For Harrison Court, 10-17 trees are required. The applicant proposes 13 trees distributed along the street. Staff is working with the applicant on appropriate spacing from the buildings and utilities. Additional evergreen trees are proposed along the north side of the site in the common area as part of the PUD site plan. Signs and Lighting Three streetlights are proposed near the guest parking area, in the center of the west row of units, and on the south side of Harrison Court near the bi-attached homes. Locations were determined by Ames Electric. Infrastructure Water, storm sewer, sanitary sewer mains, and electric service are all located in close proximity to the site along Welbeck. Services will be extended into the site as part of its development. Prior to final platting, financial security to cover the cost of improvements will be required. Stormwater Management The site is part of the original overall Bloomington Heights Subdivision stormwater plan. However, all new development must show that there are adequate provisions for stormwater to limit the rate of runoff to adjacent and downstream property. Additionally, water quality treatment was required for runoff leaving the site. The stormwater management plan shows that the volume and rate of runoff will be less than existing flows from across the site. Three different basins are proposed on the site to accomplish this level of performance. One is located along the west property line, the second is between the north units and the property line, and the third is along the south property line. These basins drain to existing storm sewer facilities located along the south property line. 367 10 REQUESTED DEVIATIONS, COMPATIBILITY STANDARDS, AND PUD FINDINGS AND PURPOSE RM development standards are listed in Tables 29.1202(5)-1 and Table 29.1202(6) of the Zoning Ordinance. The PUD Overlay allows for deviations that are identified as part of the site development plan or Master Plan. The following table lists the requested deviations to permit the proposed configuration of townhomes. Standard FS RL Requirement Requested Deviation Garage face setback to internal front lot line 25 feet 5 feet (minimum 20 feet to garage door) for Lots 1, 2, and 4-12. Lot 3 is most affected by the curve and has a garage face setback no less than 17.5 feet for 9 feet of its width, or a 7.5 foot deviation. Minimum Lot Area Exterior Units 3,500 square feet 1,175 square feet for all exterior lots (Lots 1-5, 7, 8, 10-12). Lot sizes for these lots range from 2,325 square feet to 2,844 square feet. Internal Side Setback Without Party Wall 8 feet 0.5 feet for Lots 7 and 8, which will maintain 7.5 feet setbacks. 3.5 feet for Lot 11, which has an approximately 5-foot setback from its south property line (corner lot side setback) Internal Front Setback Corner Lots 10 feet 0.5 feet for Lot 3, which has a front corner lot setback of approximately 9.5 feet on its south side Internal Rear Setback 20 feet 4.5 feet Rear setbacks of Lots 1,2, 4, 5-10, and 12 range from 10 feet to 4.5 feet (Lot 12) Minimum Lot Frontage 24 feet 10 feet for Lot 10. As the street ends 3 feet past the driveway on Lot 10, it has 15 feet of frontage. Transformer, AC, and Other Mechanical Units Internal Front Setback 10 feet 10 feet The transformers on lots 4 and 12 range from a 0 foot setback to a 2 foot setback The transformer on the outlot serving Lot 3 is setback 9 feet from Harrison Court Other transformers are located in front yards but meet minimum setback requirements 368 11 The AC and meters on Lot 11 have a 7-foot setback (6.) Compatibility Standards. Minimum lot area, lot width, lot frontage, setback, and maximum site coverage requirements may be reduced to provide for a variety of dwelling types. Any such modification to the Zoning District requirements must be noted on the Master Plan. Due to the concentration of dwelling units that will occur if these dimensional requirements are reduced, the following compatibility standards are required: a. Garages and Driveways. Garages and off-street parking areas must be located so that they do not define the front façade of the dwelling. This standard is met when a garage does not protrude forward from the front façade or the front entry is setback typically no more than 12 feet to the front door and includes the required entrance design requirements. City Council may approve a development on through-lots without meeting this standard when it is determined to be impracticable for the home design and street types. The development must include adequate right-of-way and driveway spacing to accommodate parking and street trees. The width of driveways may need to be reduced and garages setback an adequate distance to accommodate these elements. Shared driveways are encouraged to address street design goals. Alley or private rear lane access is also an option. The garages on the bi-attached units will not protrude more than 12 feet in front of the front doors. The three-unit attached units will have garages that protrude 4 feet past the front doors. The Site Development Plan and Preliminary Plat control these dimensions. The submitted architectural plans are illustrative and show a larger protrusion that permitted for the bi- attached units. The private street is 22 feet wide. It includes a guest parking area on-street and a street tree plan. No reduction in driveway width is necessary to accommodate these elements. b. Entrances. Main entrances to dwelling units must be clearly identifiable and accessible to the owner and visitors. The main entrance must be demarcated by one of the following: covered porch or stoop; sidelight windows; or other significant architectural treatment that emphasizes main entrances. Main entrances shall be directly connected to the pedestrian circulation system of the development. All unit configurations will have covered porches over the entrances and a stoop. A sidewalk on one side of Harrison Court will connect to the public sidewalk 369 12 on Welbeck. c. Massing. Multi-family buildings proposed abutting single-family and or two- family buildings should be of a scale, massing, window proportions, and architectural style that is compatible with abutting lower density residential development. The units are on separate lots and defined as single-family attached homes, not multi-family. They are all two stories in height and have sloped roofs, similar to adjacent single-family homes. The bi-attached units will be 23 feet in height to the mid-point of the roofs, and the three-unit attached homes will be 21 feet to the mid-point of the roof. The three-unit attached homes have a second story cantilever above the first story to break up the rear façade. The developer has indicated that rear doors will lead to uncovered concrete patios. The bi-attached homes are also intended to have a rear patio with a covered sliding door leading. These units will interface with the rear of the adjacent single-family homes. In total, both units in a bi-attached home will be 52 feet in width, similar to a single-family home with an attached garage. d. Commercial. Commercial buildings shall have main entrances that are clearly identifiable and accessible. The buildings will be oriented towards the street or towards a pedestrian/bicycle corridor. Not applicable. e. Pocket Neighborhood. Not applicable. PUD Overlay Purpose. Sec. 29.1114(1) outlines the intent of a Planned Unit Development. Staff finds that the proposed development complies with the standards: (a) Provide for innovative and imaginative development through flexibility in the design, placement of buildings, clustering of housing types, use of open space, and related site and architectural design considerations; The development uses the PUD to cluster the units on small lots in the western portion of the site. This allows development on the widest portion of the property and maintains approximately 50% of the site as open space outside of the private lots. The proposal meets housing diversity objectives with a townhome building type, 370 13 which also maintains compatibility with adjacent single-family homes through scale and massing. (b) Increase the stock of diverse housing types for a variety of income levels; The townhomes will be owner-occupied, three-bedroom units. A covenant requiring owner occupancy is required with the Final Plat as part of the purchase agreement for the site with the developer. This is a diverse type of ownership housing for the City. (c) Promote efficient land use and infrastructure construction, while maintaining high- quality living environments for privacy, architectural interest, streetscape, walkability, and open spaces for private and common use; As infill development, infrastructure is available to the site along its frontage with Welbeck Drive. Each townhome will have a small patio at its rear. Street trees are proposed and a sidewalk will connect the units to the public sidewalk on Welbeck Drive. (d) Provide for a variety of private and common open space areas corresponding to smaller lot sizes along with additional amenities for larger developments; Private space in the rear of the lots will include patios. While common open space is not required, significant open space managed by an HOA will be provided. (e) Encourage and preserve opportunities for energy efficient development; and The development is required to be all-electric. It will utilize utilizing air source heat pumps for heating and cooling. The developer will also provide energy efficiency ratings for the units. This is required as part of the purchase agreement. (f) Encourage context-sensitive infill development. The townhomes will be a similar height (two stories) and have sloped roofs reflective of adjacent single-family homes. Massing of the bi-attached homes that interface with the adjacent homes will also be similar. A 20-foot external setback is provided between the homes and adjacent lots. The Ames Plan 2040 RN-2 designation for the neighborhood anticipates attached homes along with single-family detached. Eastward along Harrison approximately 200 feet from the subject property is a development with a mix of small-lot detached single- family lots and bi-attached homes. Further to the east at Hyde Avenue is a medium density townhome development. Similar products exist within the area. 371 14 Findings of Fact. Sec. 29.1114(3) sets out the findings required in order to approve a rezoning with PUD. Staff makes the following findings of fact. (a) The Zoning District and Overlay are consistent with the comprehensive plan. The property and surrounding area are designated as RN-2 by Ames Plan 2040 or as a fully established neighborhood that is “typically built in the second half of the 20th century to the present. Largely single-family, with some attached and duplex structures. Layout of neighborhoods often has larger blocks and curvilinear local street patterns.” RN-2 anticipates infill development and attached homes, as allowed by FS RL. A development guideline is to “limit infill location for attached units and townhome developments to areas adjacent or near existing attached units and public space.” The subject property is both near other attached homes in the neighborhood and within a ½ mile of two parks. Within the RN-2 designation, a development guideline for infill includes “on infill sites, use scale and design to respect context.” Other plan policies also emphasize infill compatibility and the protection of neighborhood character through considering scale and other design elements to minimize conflicts with adjacent properties. The units are two-stories—similar in massing to the adjacent properties. The largest buildings contain three units and are 90 feet in total width. The three-unit structures back up to the railroad. The bi-attached units interface with the adjacent single-family homes to the north and south. The buildings total 52 feet in width, similar to a single-family home with an attached garage. (b) The property on which the PUD is requested has a residential zoning of RL, RM, UCRM, RH, FS-RL, FS-RM, S-SMD, or is concurrently proposed to be changed to one of these Zoning Districts. The property is concurrently proposed to be rezoned to FS RL. (c) The design of the commercial area is compatible with the overall PUD design concept and integrated into the development. No commercial element is proposed. (d) The existing and proposed infrastructure is sufficient in design and capacity to support the project with water, sanitary sewer, storm drainage, streets and other transportation related facilities. Infrastructure is adequate to serve the site. Water, sanitary sewer, electric, and storm sewer are all available with relatively short extensions Welbeck. 372 15 (e) The PUD Master Plan includes interconnected pedestrian and bicycle circulation routes to the surrounding areas and within the development. A sidewalk along Harrison Court connects all units to the public sidewalk on Welbeck. A gap in the public sidewalk along Welbeck will be filled in with the development. (f) The proposed PUD Master Plan is consistent with the requirements of this ordinance and all deviations, exceptions, and limitations stated on the Master Plan are clear, identifiable, and necessary in support of the design concept and the purpose statements of the overlay. The Preliminary Plat and Major Site Development Plan illustrate the requested deviations. Compatibility standards for granting deviations are met. (g) The proposed PUD Master Plan is in harmony with the purpose of the overlay. A Major Site Development Plan was submitted in lieu of a Master Plan. The site plan illustrates that FS RL densities and perimeter setbacks abutting other lots will be met. Internal lot sizes and setbacks will be varied as allowed through the PUD to cluster housing, leaving significant open space and allowing for a unique housing type. (h) Findings for approval of a Master Plan with a PUD Overlay rezoning may be deferred, when the City Council initiates a property rezoning. Not applicable. 373 16 PUD Supplemental Development Standards 374 17 REZONING BACKGROUND: Legal Description. Lot ‘J’ of Bloomington Heights West Plat 3, City of Ames, Story County, Iowa. 375 18 Current Zoning and Land Use. The property is currently zoned Residential Low Density (RL). It is vacant City surplus land and previously right-of-way. Surrounding Zoning and Land Use. Land uses that occupy the subject property and other surrounding properties are described in the following table. Direction from Subject Property Existing Primary Land Uses and Zoning Districts Subject Property Vacant – Residential Low Density (RL) North Single-Family Residential – Residential Low Density (RL) East Single-Family Residential – Residential Low Density (RL) Small-lot detached single-family lot and bi-attached homes— Planned Residence Development (F-PRD) South Single-Family Residential – Residential Low Density (RL) West Railroad Single-Family Residential – Suburban Residential Low Density (FS RL) Ames Plan 2040. The Ames Plan 2040 Future Land Use Map designation for the property is RN-2, existing residential neighborhood (see Attachment F - Future Land Use Map Excerpt). Plan 2040 describes the designation as existing built-up areas with the exception of infill sites. They may contain a variety of single-family homes, include attached homes and may include Planned Developments with unique features. Specific development guidelines are to “limit infill location for attached units and townhome developments to areas adjacent or near existing attached units and public space” and “on infill sites, use scale and design to respect context.” Attachment F includes the excerpt of Plan 2040 for the RN-2 designation, including a full description of characteristics. Proposed Zoning. The FS RL zone is intended to “is intended to accommodate contemporary development patterns similar to development in the past 20 to 30 years” and this is appropriate for the RN-2 Ames Plan 2040 designation. The zone allows detached and attached single-family homes and two-family dwellings. Infrastructure. Infrastructure is available to serve the site. Extensions of water and sanitary sewer mains onto the site from Welbeck will occur with the development. All streets are proposed to be private. Findings of Fact. Based upon an analysis of the proposed rezoning and laws pertinent to the proposed map amendment, staff makes the following findings of fact: 1. Keystone Equity Group has a purchase agreement for the property. The rezoning request applicant statement is included as Attachment B. 376 19 2. Ames Municipal Code Section 29.1507(1) allows the property owner to initiate an amendment to the Official Zoning Map. 3. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the designation of RN-2 as identified on the Ames Plan 2040 Future Land Use Map. 4. The proposed rezoning to FS RL is consistent with the surrounding area where the primary development type is single-family residential developed under the RL base zoning district. 5. The Major Site Development Plan (MSDP) and Preliminary Plat will be the controlling plans for development of the site upon approval of the PUD. Densities and perimeter setbacks prescribed by the FS RL base zone will be met. 6. The rezoning includes a PUD Overlay that allows for flexibility in design standards. The findings for a PUD Overlay support the intent of the MSDP in its arrangement of uses, clustering, and preservation of open space. 7. Infrastructure is adequate to serve the site. Public Notice. The City provided mailed notice to all property owners within 400 feet of the subject property and placed a sign on the property, prior to the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council meetings in accordance with the notification requirements of Chapter 29. MAJOR SITE DEVELOPMENT PLAN CRITERIA The PUD requires a site plan approval for development, which is typically a Major Site Development Plan that sets building types, site development features, and deviation allowances. When acting upon an application for a Major Site Development Plan approval, the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council shall rely upon generally accepted site planning criteria and design standards. These criteria and standards are necessary to fulfill the intent of the Zoning Ordinance, the Land Use Policy Plan (Ames Plan 2040), and are the minimum necessary to safeguard the public health, safety, aesthetics, and general welfare. 1. The design of the proposed development shall make adequate provisions for surface and subsurface drainage to limit the rate of increased runoff of surface water to adjacent and downstream property. The Public Works Department has reviewed the proposed development and stormwater memo. It has satisfied this requirement through the use of detention basins for water quality and to slow the rate of runoff and direct runoff to City storm sewer infrastructure. 2. The design of the proposed development shall make adequate provision for 377 20 connection to water, sanitary sewer, electrical, and other utility lines within the capacity limits of those utility lines. Existing water, sanitary sewer, and electric services are adequate to serve the site. A sanitary sewer main and water main are proposed to be extended from the existing mains in Welbeck. Intakes will also be constructed on-site that connect to City storm sewers. 3. The design of the proposed development shall make adequate provision for fire protection through building placement, acceptable location of flammable materials, and other measures to ensure fire safety. The Fire Inspector has reviewed access and fire truck circulation. The outlot that contains the private street will include an easement over the fire truck turnaround areas and all required turnarounds for fire apparatus vehicles are required to be posted “No Parking - Fire Lane.” 4. The design of the proposed development shall not increase the danger of erosion, flooding, landslide, or other endangerment to adjoining and surrounding property. Stormwater runoff will be directed to City storm sewers. Detention basins slow the rate of runoff from the site. No site features such as slopes pose an issue for erosion or landslides. 5. Natural topographic and landscape features of the site shall be incorporated into the development design. The site is relatively flat. It does have two low points along the north and south property lines. Detention basins are proposed in these areas. 6. The design of the interior vehicle and pedestrian circulation shall provide for convenient flow of vehicles and movement of pedestrians and shall prevent hazards to adjacent streets or property. The site will have one access off Welbeck and an on-site sidewalk will connect to the public sidewalk. 7. The design of outdoor parking areas, storage yards, trash and dumpster areas, and other exterior features shall be adequately landscaped or screened to minimize potential nuisance and impairment to the use of adjoining property. Each unit will have individual trash collection. A street tree plan is proposed. 8. The proposed development shall limit entrances and exits upon adjacent streets in order to prevent congestion on adjacent and surrounding streets and in order 378 21 to provide for safe and orderly vehicle movement. The site will have one access off Welbeck. 9. Exterior lighting shall relate to the scale and location of the development in order to maintain adequate security, while preventing a nuisance or hardship to adjacent property or streets. Three streetlights are proposed at locations determined by Ames Electric. 10. The proposed development shall ensure that dust and other forms of air pollution, noise disturbances, odor, glare, and other nuisances will be limited to acceptable levels as prescribed in other applicable State and City regulations. The proposed development will not create any air pollution, nuisances, dust, odor, glare, or noise disturbances. 11. Site coverage, building scale, setbacks, and open spaces shall be in proportion with the development property and with existing and planned development and structures, in adjacent and surrounding property. The units are two-stories with sloped roofs—similar in massing to the adjacent properties. The largest buildings contain three units and are 90 feet in total width. The three-unit structures back up to the railroad. The bi-attached units interface with the adjacent single-family homes to the north and south. The buildings total 52 feet in width, similar to a single-family home with an attached garage. External setbacks of 20 feet, the same rear setback required by RL, are maintained. While infill projects consisting of single-family attached dwellings are exempt from common open space standards under the PUD, minus the private street and lots, approximately 50% of the site is left as open space. APPLICABLE SUBDIVISION LAW The laws applicable to this Preliminary Plat Subdivision include, but are not limited to, the following: (verbatim language is shown in italics, other references are paraphrased): Code of Iowa Chapter 354, Section 8 requires that the governing body shall determine whether the subdivision conforms to its Land Use Policy Plan. Ames Municipal Code Chapter 23, Subdivisions, Division I, outlines the general provisions for subdivisions within the City limits and within two miles of the City limits of Ames. Ames Municipal Code Section 23.302(4): (3) City Council Review of Preliminary Plat: All proposed subdivision plats shall be 379 22 submitted to the City Council for review and approval in accordance with these Regulations. The City Council shall examine the Preliminary Plat, any comments, recommendations or reports examined or made by the Planning and Zoning Commission, and such other information as it deems necessary and reasonable to consider. Ames Municipal Code Section 23.302(6): (4) City Council Action on Preliminary Plat: (a) Based upon such examination, the City Council shall determine whether the Preliminary Plat conforms to relevant and applicable design and improvement standards in these Regulations, to other City ordinances and standards, to the City's Land Use Policy Plan and to the City's other duly adopted plans. In particular, the City Council shall determine whether the subdivision conforms to minimum levels of service standards set forth in the Land Use Policy Plan for public infrastructure and shall give due consideration to the possible burden of the proposed subdivision on public improvements in determining whether to require the installation of additional public improvements as a condition for approval. (b) Following such examination and within 30 days of the referral of the Preliminary Plat and report of recommendations to the City Council by the Planning and Zoning Commission, the City Council shall approve, approve subject to conditions, or disapprove the Preliminary Plat. The City Council shall set forth its reasons for disapproving any Preliminary Plat or for conditioning its approval of any Preliminary Plat in its official records and shall provide a written copy of such reasons to the developer. Public Notice. Notice was mailed to property owners within 400 feet of the subject site and a sign was posted on the subject property. Private Street Design Standards Excerpt Ames Municipal Code Section 23.403(16): City Council may approve private streets and alleys as part of a Subdivision. Private streets and alleys are subject to the following requirements: (a) The proposed private street serves as access to a cluster or small group of housing units and is not intended for use by through traffic. Private streets and alleys may also serve as access to townhouse-style developments. (b) (b) The proposed private street or alley is designed and constructed such that it meets or exceeds Iowa Statewide Urban Design and Specifications (SUDAS) standards and the City of Ames supplement design standard requirements regarding, pavement profile, base, and drainage.

Renee Hall, City Clerk John A Haila, Mayor 382 ITEM #:30 DATE:01-27-26 DEPT:PW SUBJECT:RESOURCE RECOVERY & RECYCLING CAMPUS PRELIMINARY PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS COUNCIL ACTION FORM BACKGROUND: Since 1975, the City's Resource Recovery Plant has received municipal solid waste (MSW) from throughout Story County, processed it to remove recyclable metals, and converted a substantial portion of the MSW into a supplemental fuel for use in the City's Power Plant boilers. Although this system was successful in reducing the volume of MSW that needed to be landfilled, in recent years this arrangement has resulted in technical, economic, and regulatory challenges. In response to these issues, the City is pursuing the development of a new Resource Recovery & Recycling Campus (R3C). Property has been secured on Freel Drive to site this new operation. At the facility, MSW will be received from haulers and customers, recyclable metals will be recovered, and the waste will be loaded into semi trailers to be hauled to the Carroll County Landfill. At the June 24, 2025 City Council meeting, the City Council received the conceptual design and financial analysis report for the Resource Recovery and Recycling Campus (R3C). The conceptual design and financial analysis were developed by HDR Engineering, Inc. of Omaha, NE, following a competitive request for proposal (RFP) process. On September 3, 2025, the City Council approved an amendment to the agreement with HDR for the detailed design work necessary to bid and construct the new facility. The agreement also included bid assistance and construction engineering support throughout the project. The fees for these services total an amount not-to-exceed $965,715. In September 2025, the City retained Story Construction of Ames, IA to serve as a Construction Manager as Advisor for this project. Story's role in the project is to : 1) represent the City during the project, 2) identify opportunities during the design phase for cost-savings or improved constructability, 3) assist with bidding, and 4) coordinate schedules and workflow for the various contractors during construction. The plans and specifications have been completed and are now ready to be issued for bids. Through the Construction Manager approach, HDR has prepared 11 separate bid packages. Story will coordinate the work of each individual contractor that receives a contract for the work. Project Highlights: The project contains a main transfer building, a scalehouse, yard waste storage, customer convenience area, and paved maneuvering and parking areas for equipment. The total site is approximately 9.5 acres. The attached document contains drawings of the site layout, office 383 and processing areas, and renderings of the building exterior and interior education room. The key areas of the project are described in more detail below: The main transfer building will be a pre-engineered metal building structure with footprint of 33,275 sq. ft. The structure will house both the tipping floor (26,100 sq. ft.) and a two-story office (7,175 sq. ft.). The first floor of the office includes a lobby, reception desk, maintenance and mechanical rooms, a locker room with separate shower/toilet rooms, and an employee break room. The second floor includes staff offices, restrooms, an operations room, and an education room. The education and operations rooms are designed to provide visibility into other parts of the facility. From the education room, visitors can observe the scale entry/exit, tipping floor, and processing area operations. The facility will include an elevator to provide access to the second floor, in addition to a public-facing internal stairwell and a staff-oriented stairwell near the tipping floor. The tipping floor area allows commercial haulers to enter, turn, tip their loads, and exit. Staff will operate a wheel loader on the floor, using it to load MSW into a shredder. The shredder is designed to open garbage bags and packaging. The waste will then be passed under a drum magnet to remove ferrous metals. The remaining waste will pass through two eddy current separators (ECS) placed in series, which will remove non-ferrous metals. The MSW will then be returned to the tipping floor where it will be loaded into transfer trailers for transportation to the landfill. Operators can bypass the processing equipment and load directly into the trailers if the processing equipment is down or if the MSW does not contain any recyclable metals (e.g., food or industrial processing waste). The scalehouse will consist of a pre-fabricated structure and two scales, serving both inbound and outbound traffic. This area will be staffed or operated remotely using video and audio equipment. While commercial customers will enter the tipping floor, residential customers will be diverted towards a customer convenience area. The customer convenience area contains roll-off boxes for small quantities of household waste, separated recyclables, and a shack for household hazardous waste. Yard waste will be collected on the east side of the site, where it will be stored until it can be hauled off for disposal. The northern portion of the site will be a storage yard for trucks, trailers, and other equipment. A fueling area will be situated here, containing double-walled aboveground storage tanks of both B100 biodiesel and standard diesel fuel. This area will be accessible for all diesel-powered equipment in the City's vehicle fleet. Stormwater management will be facilitated through the construction of four large, interconnected basins around the perimeter of the site. Site development will be coordinated with the paving of Freel Drive adjacent to the site, which will be taking place in the 2026 construction season. Public Outreach: The design details of the project have been shared with the haulers, participating Resource Recovery System (RRS) members, and Resource Recovery operations staff at several steps during the design process. These have included an open house for haulers and RRS Members on October 16, a meeting with partnering RRS members on November 19, a plan 384 Project Revenues Project Expenses Revenue Abated G.O.

In addition, City staff, elected officials, representatives from partner RRS members, and haulers have received project updates through recurring issues of the R3Cycled Report, an e-newsletter published by City staff. Bid Packages: Through the Construction Manager as Advisor delivery method, Story Construction will be coordinating the work of several individual prime contractors responsible for specific aspects of the project. HDR and Story have worked to divide the project into 11 separate bid packages for the work. The packages are: 1. General Construction Work 2. Concrete and Steel Work 3. Gypsum Board Assembly Work 4. Elevator Lift Work 5. Fire Suppression Systems Work 6. Plumbing and HVAC Work 7. Electrical, Communications, Electrical Safety and Security Work 8. Site Demolition and Earth Work 9. Paving and Sidewalk Work 10. Site Utility Work 11. Millwright Process Integration Work Two add-alternates have been prepared for the project. One add-alternate is for the installation of a recycling canopy over the customer convenience area. This canopy would provide some cover from rain and snow for the roll-off boxes that are used to collect recyclables. However, the canopy would not extend over the drive lane due to fire code and the need to hoist the roll-offs, meaning the benefit for customers is not significant. Therefore, staff would like to evaluate the cost for this option against the potential benefits and determine whether it should be included. The second add-alternate is for the procurement and installation of a recycling baler. This equipment would allow bulky recyclable materials, such as cardboard, to be baled into dense cubes for more efficient transportation to their destination. This is expected to provide a benefit by reducing operating costs. Budget: The project budget, including the Freel Drive paving and the procurement of mobile equipment (both of which will be bid and financed separately from the R3C facility construction project) is outlined in the table below. It should be noted that a portion of the expenses related to the fueling area will be charged to Fleet Services rather than the project, although that cost is not broken out in the table: 385 Final Design 965,715 Final Design Contingency 124,785 Permitting (est.)50,000 Opinion of Probable Construction Costs for R3C Facility 16,821,527 Construction Contingency 1,435,020 Construction Inspection (est.)450,950 Construction Manager Fee (est.)926,524 Construction Manager General Conditions Costs (est.) 448,000 R3C Construction Subtotal 22,365,486 Mobile Equipment (transfer trucks and trailers)2,340,000 Freel Drive Paving 975,000 Total Revenues $25,680,486 Project Total $25,680,486 ALTERNATIVES: 1.

Direct staff to make modifications to the project. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: This project is essential to ensure the responsible and cost-effective handling and disposal of Ames and Story County's municipal solid waste and recyclables. The proposed Resource Recovery and Recycling Campus (R3C) is sized to handle the anticipated waste of the community over the next 20 years, and includes equipment that will assist in processing solid waste and removing recyclable metals before being transported to the landfill for disposal. In addition, the R3C will accommodate the community's waste diversion and recycling public outreach efforts. The facility will welcome classrooms, community groups, and other visitors through an education room and other features that offer a glimpse into waste disposal and recycling for the community. It is critical that this facility is constructed and operational by July 1, 2027. Delays will have a substantial impact on solid waste disposal costs, electric rates, or both. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1, as described above.

Some of these regulations are antiquated and need to be revised to reflect modern solid waste collection practices. In addition, with the City seeking to conclude its waste-to-energy process and implement curbside recycling, language authorizing curbside recycling must be added to this chapter. Staff has prepared an ordinance to implement these changes. Key aspects of the proposed changes are described below: 1. New language defining "recycling." Recycling (or recyclable materials) are items designated by the City that can be collected, processed, and turned into new raw materials. 2. Standards for recycling containers. The existing chapter establishes standards for when garbage receptables may be set out, how they must be covered, etc. The revisions apply similar standards to recycling containers. 3. Container weight and frequency of collection. Since 1990, Municipal Code has limited the weight of garbage receptacles to 65 pounds. In addition, since 1970, Municipal Code has required that residential customers receive garbage collection twice per week by default, unless the customer opts for once per week collection. This frequency of collection was the subject of some complaints during City Council discussion of garbage collection in 2023 and 2024. Most garbage haulers today use 95- or 96-gallon carts, emptied using hydraulically operated equipment. Since these containers have far greater capacity than those used in decades ago, they require emptying less frequently. Therefore, the proposed ordinance eliminates the weight limit for containers and establishes once per week collection as the default for residential curbside collection. When necessary to address an unusual quantity of garbage (e.g., following a disaster, calamity, construction project or other incident), a customer may make arrangements to have garbage collected more frequently. 4. Manner of Disposal. With the creation of a category of "recyclable materials," the ordinance directs that these materials must be disposed of through the City's residential curbside recycling collection program, by delivery to a recycling facility, or by contracting with a hauler to deliver the materials to a recycling facility. 5. Creation of Residential Curbside Recycling Collection Program. This section creates the authority for the City to collect recyclables from single-family residences and multi-family residences of up to four units. 395 The cost for the residential curbside collection service will billed to eligible residences on their monthly utility bills. Although the eligible residences may elect not to receive a container and participate in the program, they will not be relieved of the obligation to keep recyclable materials out of the garbage. In addition, they would continue to be charged the monthly fee for the service. The purpose for continuing to charge for this service is two-fold: 1) It is anticipated that the contracted hauler will charge the City on the basis of the number of eligible households, not just the number of partic ipatin g households. This is the common arrangement in other communities with city-wide contracted curbside collection; and 2) it would be extremely challenging for the City and its contracted hauler to forecast and budget for an estimated percentage of participating households. This uncertainty would result in financial risk for the hauler that would be reflected in higher fees for the participating households. City staff is in the process of evaluating responses to the Request for Proposal (RFP) for curbside recycling collection services. Staff is proposing that the City Council consider first reading of the ordinance making revisions to Chapter 10 and establishing the recycling program, and align the third reading and adoption of the ordinance with the approval of the recycling collection contract. This will allow for simultaneous adoption of: 1) These Chapter 10 revisions, 2) The recycling collection contract, and 3) The Municipal Code appendix containing the proposed monthly customer fee. This fee will be based on the selected contractor's per-customer monthly charge, anticipated disposal costs, and internal costs such as customer service staff time, marketing, etc.). PUBLIC OUTREACH: City staff conducted a public survey in September of 2025 requesting feedback from the community on certain elements of the proposed residential curbside recycling program. Over 1,500 responses were received and information gathered from the survey used to help further refine details of the program. City staff has utilized a periodic e-newsletter called the R3Cycled Report to communicate updates regarding the R3C project and the recycling and diversion programs to local haulers and other key stakeholders. Both editions of this newsletter in January provided updates regarding the potential changes and the timing of the discussion. In addition, staff has contacted the list of registered rental property owners/landlords to inform them of the anticipated curbside recycling program implementation, so they may consider the impacts of this program on their lease agreements. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve first reading of the attached ordinance modifying Chapter 10 of Ames Municipal Code and establishing a curbside residential recycling collection program. 2. Direct staff to make modifications to the attached ordinance. 396 3. Do not approve first reading of the ordinance. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: Chapter 10 of Municipal Code (Garbage and Refuse) contains several provisions that are antiquated and do not reflect modern solid waste collection practices. The attached ordinance addresses those issues. In addition, the conclusion of the City's waste-to-energy process requires a greater reliance on landfill diversion, which is best accomplished through curbside recycling. The draft ordinance contains the language necessary to implement curbside collection of recyclables for residential properties. Once the contracted hauler and its rates are identified, the contract and the proposed rates will be returned to City Council for approval at the time of third reading and adoption of the Chapter 10 modifications. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative No. 1, as described above.

City Council held a public hearing on December 16 and approved the rezoning for approximately 15.25 gross acres to Research Park Innovation District (RI) and for the remainder of the site to continue as Agriculture (A). At the time staff noted the applicant intended to subdivide the site into two lots to match the proposed rezoning boundary. Since the first reading of the rezoning, staff has been working with the applicant to review a preliminary plat for the property. Staff noted discrepancies in the proposed lot and rezoning boundary. The applicant has provided an updated rezoning exhibit and legal description (see attached). The area being rezoned has been expanded by approximately 40 feet on the east side, which is approximately an additional one acre of land area. Due the applicant's enlarged lot size not matching the original proposed rezoning area described with the original public hearing notice, the rezoning should not be approved. A new public hearing with a description of the larger area is required, which can occur on February 10. February 10 is also the planned date for City Council review of the Preliminary Plat that would divide the site.

Haila, Mayor First Reading: Second Reading: Third Reading: Passed on: I, Renee Hall, City Clerk of the City of Ames, Iowa, hereby certify that the above and foregoing is a true copy of Ordinance No. ______________, passed by the City Council of said City at the meeting held on ______________________and signed by the Mayor on ___________________________, and published in the Ames Tribune on ___________________________. ________________________________ Renee Hall, City Clerk 426 Smart Choice Staff Memo Police Department 515.239.5133 Non emergency 515 Clark Ave. P.O. Box 811 515.239.5130 Administration Ames, IA 50010 515.239.5429 fax www.CityofAmes.org To: Mayor and City Council Date: January 7, 2026 From: Geoff Huff, Chief of Police, and Jane Chang, Assistant City Attorney Subject: Proposed Revisions to Chapter 4 for a First Offense Lighting Violation At the December 9, 2025, Council meeting during a discussion on modifications to Chapter 4, a motion was made to direct staff to develop language regarding the first offense on a lighting violation to establish a period of time to allow the user to fix the issue. Iowa Code section 321.397 already covers lamps on bicycles: 321.397 Lamps on bicycles. Every bicycle shall be equipped with a lamp on the front exhibiting a white light, at the times specified in section 321.384, visible from a distance of at least three hundred feet to the front and with a lamp on the rear exhibiting a red light visible from a distance of three hundred feet to the rear; except that a red reflector may be used in lieu of a rear light. A peace officer riding a police bicycle is not required to use either front or rear lamps if duty so requires. In 2021, the Iowa Legislature enacted a new chapter regarding the enforcement of state, local, and municipal laws, Iowa Code Chapter 27B. Iowa Code section 27B.2 places restrictions on the enforcement of state, local, and municipal laws: 27B.2 Restriction on enforcement of state, local, and municipal law prohibited. A local entity or law enforcement department shall not adopt or enforce a policy or take any other action under which the local entity or law enforcement department prohibits or discourages the enforcement of state, local, or municipal laws. Adding fix-it type language to Ames Municipal Code Chapter 4 could be seen as discouragement to enforcing the law, which would be prohibited by Iowa Code section 27B.2. It is important to note that officers currently stop people at night on bicycles and tend to educate the user rather than write a citation for the violation. In the last five years, only one citation has been written for not having the required lamp or light on a bicycle. 427 In cases where the proximate cause of an accident is determined to be the lack of a light on a bicycle or other conveyance, officers should have the discretion to write a citation. It would not be fair to the other person affected by that accident to have a first offense free policy, or a period of time to remedy. If a motor vehicle had no working lights and caused an accident, we would not want to allow that driver a period of time to remedy to avoid a citation. Police officers derive their authority to enforce Iowa Code Chapter 321 from the state. Municipal ordinances may supplement but may not restrict or prohibit enforcement of state law. An officer could always write an Iowa Code section 321.397 for a lighting violation, but again, only one of these citations has been written in the last five years. Based on these facts, it is apparent that Ames Police Officers are using appropriate discretion in these interactions and are not looking to write lighting violations whenever possible. Not adding mandatory language to grant a fix it period would allow officers to continue to use their discretion while leaving the door open to issue a citation when it would be warranted. For all of the reasons stated above, at this time staff is not presenting draft language that allows for a fix-it period for lighting violations to Council. 428 To:Mayor & City Council From:Mark O. Lambert, City Attorney Date:January 27, 2026 Subject:Closed Session Item No. 36 MEMO I hereby advise the Council that the Council has the authority to go into closed session under Iowa Code section 21.5(1)(c), to discuss with legal counsel matters presently in litigation or where litigation is imminent.
