INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM TOWN OF WATERFO
To: Kim Allen, Finance Director
From: Gary J. Schneider, Director of Public Works
Date: January 20, 2022
Re: Building Maintenance FY23 Budget Memo
It has been requested that the Department review the Building Maintenance
Budget and attempt to lower the budget request to reach a zero dollar increase
over the adopted FY 22 budget. This would require an $181,202 decrease in
the request submitted to the Finance Director.
The Department will be submitting a revised budget with the following reductions:
52010 Advertising (-$1,050): Recommend only using the Town website for
advertising ,
52030 Professional Fees (-$37,000}: Assign the cost of environmental testing of
the Municipal Complex to the Bond Issue. There is the requirement to perform
this testing for several years, the exact end date is not known. It depends on the
test results in the outlaying years.
62040 Service Contracts and Repairs: (-844,666 total of the following): From the
detailed list submitted on page 4, the following changes are:
e Elevators: (-$9,970): Leaving $750 for the State Permitting of 3 elevators. The
Department's request for funds to rehab the elevators (if approved by the RTM)
should eliminate the calls for repairs during FY 23,
e Fire Extinguisher Repairs ($-1,000): Inspections will be assigned to staff, leaving
funds just for the static testing and recharge of units.
e Maintenance/Repairs ($-15,696) Although this is a projection, the Department is
still working through years of maintenance neglect.
s Gustodial Services: ($-10,000). The original number requested was from the
current bid pricing. Will negotiate a reduction is services
HVAC Preventative Maintenance ($-11,000). Assumed reduction.
® Bottled Water (-32,000) Public water is provided to each building. Departments
through their budgets can pay for the bottled water.
e Overhead Door: (-$5,000). Assumed reduction.
52100 Electricity: ($0) This line item should not be reduced. The requested
number is based on what the bills are showing us for FY 22 and just multiplied by
the 16% rate increase negotiated by Purchasing. (To negate the $54,935
increase, that equates to the power consumed by the Police Department or the
Community Center for one year).
52110 Water (-$3,000) Assumed reduction.
53020 Other Supplies (-§4,000) Assumed reduction
55030 Building Improvements (-$5,000): Assumed reduction
All of these result in a reduction of $104,716. Without the 16% increase in
electricity, this budget would approach $0

Opening Statement
With emphasis on public and employee safety, excellent customer service and
efficiency, this Department provides maintenance, repairs, after-hour emergency support, building
automation, utility management and custodial services to our buildings and structures allowing
employees, residents and the genera! public access to clean and safe public buildings. It assists Town
Departments, managing their facility matters and assisting in capital budget development, all of which
ensures that the facilities are available for their programs.
Working with a customer first attitude, staff work every day not to simply manage the routine
functions of the department, but to make it one of the best in the region,
BUDGET FUNCTION
Building Maintenance is more than repair what doesn’t work. It is management of utilities, space
utilization, renovations and replacements. It requires the understanding of how the mechanical
components interaction with each other. It is really Facility Management.
The goal of Facility Management is to provide a building that is inviting, providing a sense of welcome
and arrival at the entrance. It must have a community orientation. Customers must feel comfortable
using the services at the facility. The space also needs to be flexible so staff can focus on their current
and future missions and not be concerned about the limitations of the bricks and mortar that they work
out of.
The vision for this Department is to be proactive, not reactive. This will take several years due to the
backlog of maintenance and repairs, lack of dedicated staff to the facilities effort and lack of capturing
data.
Components of a well-managed facilities program encompasses:
Preventative Maintenance Schedules
Repair Protocols
Space Needs Programming
Energy Audits
Facility Inspections
Alarm Testing
Inventory Control (Asset Tracking)
Custodial Methods ,
Life Safety Systems
Security Systems
ADA (Barrier Free Buildings)
Environmental Permit Compliance
Indoor Air Quality
Building Code Compliance

The fallowing facilities are assigned to this Department:
Town Hall
Library
Emergency Operations Center
Community Center
Youth & Family Services
Police
Municipal Complex (including all buildings on the property)
Jordan Park House
Nevins Cottage
Eugene O’Neill Theater (assistance as needed)
Southwest & Cohanzie Schools (abandoned properties)
o000000000
ie)
The budget presented is primarily an operations (fixed costs) budget. The Department is obliged to
pay utility bills (water, sewer, electricity, heating (oil and natural gas), comply with environmental
permits, perform life safety inspections (sprinklers and fire alarms), manage intrusion alarms and
contract for custodial services for 250,000 square feet of municipal space. Funding for new
construction, major replacements of equipment or renovations to the existing space are found in the
Capital improvement Program.
Unlike last year’s budget where costs were extracted from numerous department budget requests, the
budget for FY 23 was built on solid but limited data. Using the first quarter of FY 22’s budget, we
projected to the end of the current fiscal year the expenditure requests. Using this as the base, we
applied known or projected rate increases which produced the FY 23 budget request.
The Department fs unable to provide a 5 year look back for this budget. Facilities expenses may have
been combined with other expenses in each department's budget requests in the past. Any attempt
to separate out these costs would be labor intensive and questionable to its accuracy. We will build
that data base ensuring proper accounting in each area.
Staffing: Under the direction of the Public Works Director, a Facilities Maintenance Coordinator
manages the Facilities. This is the only person assigned to this Department. Comparison in this area
from the current year to the proposed must take into account that the current employee was hired well
into the fiscal year, the position was open for several months after the previous employee left this
position to go back to being an Assistant Building Official. The salary is determined by the Bargaining
Union contract.
Facilities uses the time from the Public Works Office Coordinator for support staff.
Facilities is responsible for the utilities (Water, sewer, heating oil, natural gas and electricity)
consumed at the buildings listed as well as the 5 Fire Stations.
Electricity: The Finance Department has entered into a 5 year fixed price for the purchase of
electricity. Our current rate was $.0781/kwh. The new rate is $.0919/kwh, a 16% increase. This is for
generation only. Transmission rate (Eversource) will be set in early of 2022, so any impact to the
budget is unknown. Facilities is responsible for 40 accounts to include those of the Fire Stations and
Police radio sites (5).
Water: We have 22 accounts that we manage. We have not budgeted any rate increases. Veolia will
review rates in early 2022.

Sewer: We have 14 accounts that we manage. We have not budgeted rate increases.
Heating Oil/Natural Gas: Currently we have 10 buildings that receive heating oil. We have 5
locations with Natural Gas.
- Solid Waste/Recyclables: The Public Works Department provides the containers and collection
services and disposal costs. These costs are included in the Public Works Budget.
Service Contracts: This has been a major focus for the last fiscal year. Consolidation of these
contracts allows us to ensure the preventative maintenance tasks are performed at all the facilities
that they adhere to the Town’s purchasing requirements and we can monitor the performance of the
vendor.
Life Safety Inspections: For those buildings with sprinklers and/or fire alarms, quarterly inspections
are required to keep the Town in compliance with the Fire Code. From these inspections, items are
identified to be tested or components repaired.

C Dpening Statement
ns
Building new is easy, to maintain is difficult, but not impossible
The focus for Public Works is to maintain our roads, our Fleet and Mobile Equipment, manage
the collection and disposal of solid waste and equally important focusing on
Achieving a high level of customer service
Excellent information management
e Compliance with enviromental operating permits
Ability to respond to emergency management incidents
e
The four Divisions of Public Works are:
Administration
Briefly, the division manages and accounts for our assets, manages personnel, prepares the
Captial Improvement Plan, plans for emergency management and diaster mitigation and
incorporates sustainable practices into public works practices.
Highway Operations (...it is not just the asphalt...)
It is important for the residents to have well-maintained roads to ensure that traffic flows as
..smoothly and safely as possible. In order to accomplish this, the Department mixes in-house
_ vith contracted work to provide a cost effective delivery of services.
Solid Waste
The collection and transportation of waste and recyclables to disposal sites and the operaton of
the Transfer Station and the closed landfill all fall under this division.
Equipment Maintenance
This division’s skilled mechanics perform services and reparis from the simple $125 weed
wacker to the $390,000 automated collection truck.
Public Works
Fiscal Year 2023
Town of Waterford
c Budget Function
The budget is what is required to maintain the infrastructure. It is an operations budget with little
flexibility. The Department is obliged to pay bills for water, waste disposal, environmental
permitting and repairs. The roads must get plowed, diseased trees removed and our drainage
systems kept clear.
New this year:
e You will see this year a change in the Public Works budget format in the personnel area.
The number of personnel has not increased, it is just how we account for where our
personnel are tasked to work. Previous budgets lumped all personnel wages, FCIA, etc.
under 51520 Highway operations. It did not separate out the personnel needed for the
collection routes (5 Drivers) or for the operation of the transfer station (3 Maintainers).
This year, Refuse Collection and Maintenance 51530 will not only identity all the effort for
collection, it will include the effort for the curbside collection of bulky waste and leaves by
assigning a personnel cost to this effort.
s The services that the Southeastern Connecticut Regional Resources Recovery Authority
(SCRRRA or the Authority) provides to its members will remain the same for FY 23. The
one service fee charged by the Authority, the tipping fee for municipal solid waste
(garbage) will increase by $1.25/ton from $58 to $59.25/ton, the first increase since 2004.
The fee to handle the recyclables will continue to be absorbed by the Authority. All other
services are provided at no cost to the Town.
e This year the accepted road network increased by 1,600 linear feet. The Town last
accepted roads into our network in 2011. Sea View Terrace and Kathryn Court will be
added to our snow removal, waste collection and sweeping routes. Impact to the
maintenance effort will be minimal as these are new roads.
e Weclean out catch basins by using the services of a contractor who supplies the
employees and equipment. We have moved this effort to 52030 Professional Fees to
better reflect the process. Previously it was under 52510 Rental of Equipment.
New Equipment:
e $9,272 for a vehicle air conditioning service unit that supports the newest refrigerant (R-
1234YF) that is found in all 2019 to present vehicles in the Town’s fleet.
e $820 for a new set of 60” forks for H1. Currently that machine has a pair of 48” forks, but
limits the machine’s ability to adequately load and unload vehicles.
e $12,041 for the department to purchase a zero turn mower. This would allow the
department to maintain the grounds here at the complex and to assist in roadside
mowing of certain areas in town.
e $12,000 for Production Equipment Co., to extend the maintenance shop’s overhead
bridge crane. Per the building print, the bridge crane is listed as a 40’ X 40’ overhead
bridge crane, only allowing 28’ X 32’ of usage. This impacts our ability to fully utilize the
entire space for bay 1 $2. Many of our tasks require use of the crane in which creates
tying up bay 1 & 2 for extended periods of time creating backups. Extending the bridge
crane would increase our working abilities to 38° X 32’.
Replacements:
e Cart replacements run in cycles and we are in the middle of one. The older carts after
years of being grabbed and squeezed are failing. We run the carts to failure instead of a
planned replacement. Typically, the Department had budgeted for 300 recycling and
Public Works
Fiscal Year 2023
Town of Waterford
garbage carts to be purchased each year. That would cover some being sold to new
residents or residents who need additional carts and the remainder to replace carts that
were damaged by the “grabber”. The grabber must tightly hold the cart has it is lifted and
turned upside down. Years of the squeeze and sunlight causes the wails of the cart to
become bridle and crack. These carts are replaced at no charge. We are experiencing
an uptick in cart replacements due to the age. The carts were first placed into the system
25 years ago. These initial carts are beyond the end of their service life. Currently we
have over 8,430 recycling and 11,570 garbage carts in the system. While we make
repairs to lids and wheels, when the body breaks, we must replace the entire cart.

Stressors on the Budget:
e Facilities Department has placed an additional burden on the resources in the Public
Works Department. Back office operations such as work orders, invoices, contracts and
projects were transferred to Public Works without additional office support. :
e Prices for products and services are not stable. Projecting costs that cover the next 12
months is difficult.
e Environmental permitting with its 14 permits in 5 major areas require reporting and
inspections. We will not be compliant with the General Permit for Stormwater (MS4) by
July 1, 2022. It is estimated that to finish the work would be in the neighborhood of
$110,000. The budget request will only support % of that amount. It is unknown how the
DEEP will react to Town not meeting the deadline, but it is anticipated that Towns that
have made a good faith effort will not be actively pursued.
e Capital Improvement Program with its backlog of approved funded projects and the need
C of staff to project manage the contracts.
“ e The last two years we have grossly under budgeted the vehicle repair line. Years of
vehicle replacement deferments on key public works equipment is driving the repair costs
up. The pieces of equipment that this affects most are the large pieces used in waste
collection, trucks used for snow removal and street sweeping. The increase in cost of
repair parts also has affected this line item.
e tssues that can’t be resolved with simple actions are becoming the norm. The easy
issues has been completed. Civil engineering services are often needed to solve these
concerns generated by the citizens.
e Over the next several years,-the tree work will far exceed our current resources.
Contracting out this service when there is a high demand from the private sector is not an
option during this time period.
e Street lighting — Now that we are out of the warranty period, repairs now must be
budgeted. This includes the cost of Eversource to disconnect/connect the fixture to their
power lines. .
Utilities: (Street Lights, Traffic Signals)
The Finance Department has entered into a 5 year fixed price for the purchase of electricity. Our
current rate was $.0781/kwh. The new rate is $.0919/kwh, a 16% increase. This is for
generation only. Transmission rate (Eversource) will be set in early 2022, so any impact to the
budget is unknown.

52020 Postage:
§2030
The postage requirements of Public Works have typically been for daily correspondence, mailing of
equipment bid packages and bid correspondence and confirmation of Bulky Waste appointments. We
also mail notices of projects to all residents adjacent to a construction site. This allows for greater
awareness of project schedules and potential impacts to residents.

FY 23 Request $400
Professional Fees:
This appropriation as requested is to provide professional support to the Public Works function. In all
projects, certain specific technical review is required to be provided from this appropriation as follows:
We are requesting a $1,000 appropriation for appraisals of easements. These have not been
called for often in recent years, but this request is to budget for the possible expense that may
be incurred. Also, as we continue to investigate and locate our stormwater system, older
locations may require the Town to secure a drainage easement. $ 1,000
Employment Physicals & Random Drug/Alcohol testing- New employees and seasonal
employees are provided a physical prior to starting work with the Town. Random drug and
alcohol testing is performed on a quarterly basis for employees that hold a Commercial Drivers
License (CDL). (Federal Requirement) $ 5,800
Engineering/Architectural Fees and general on-call services - The Town has in place several on-
call consultants that departments use for multiple services. $ 40,000
Catch Basin Cleaning: For several years, we have been supplementing our catch basin cleaning with a
contractor supplied crew and rental vacuum truck. This has proven to be an invaluable and effective
method in meeting the MS4 permit requirements. There are approximately 3200 catch basins, of
which, 3,000 are under this mandate. The plan is to contract the cleaning of approximately 1,000 catch
basins each year. Violation of the General permit may result in penalties of up to $25,000 per violation,
per day. In FY22 the cost per basin increased to $23.00/each. $23,000

Town of Waterford
MS4 Permit Compliance — Since 2004, the Town has been in compliance with general permit for Municipal
Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4). We have cleaned out basins, swept streets, and have completed yearly
storm water quality testing of discharge points. As part of the 2004 permit, we had inspected and mapped the
majority of the stormwater system, which consists of miles of pipe, catch basins, and hydrodynamic separators,
conducted employee training on best management practices for maintenance operations and held quarterly
stormwater committee meetings to review compliance to the permit. The Town now falls under the new general
permit (effective July 2017) with expanded requirements.
The MS4 General permit mandates the Town to develop, implement and enforce best management practices
(BMP’s) for the six Minimum Control Measures. BMP’s are defined for each Minimum Control Measure. For the
six minimum control measures, the Town has identified 38 BMP’s. One of the largest impacts is that the permit
requires the Town to implement a screening and monitoring program for all outfails that discharge to impaired
waters as defined in the most recent Connecticut Integrated Water Quality Report. The Town must also meet
certain criteria for discharges to impaired waters, or waters which nitrogen, phosphorus, bacteria or mercury are
Stormwater Pollutants of Concern, or waters which have pollution load reductions specified within the Total
Maximum Daily Load(TMDL is the water quality implementation plan established pursuant to Section 303 of the
Clean Water Act). There are now requirements for any new discharges to both impaired and high quality waters.
‘The Town will continue with the services of a consultant, Barton & Loguidice, to assist the Town in remaining
“compliant with the MS4 General Permit. Although Town staff will perform tasks whenever possible, many of
the activities are technical or time sensitive.
Activities associated with mandated requirements in general are:
e Water Quality Sampling
Review of Waterford’s Stormwater Management Plan for compliance with the new General Permit
Ongoing inspections of catch basins and stormwater facilities
Compiete mapping of 15” diameter piping or less of the storm drainage system
