CONSENT AGENDA ITEM
TO:Mayor, City Council, and City Manager
DATE SUBMITTED:December 17, 2024
MEETING DATE:01/07/2025
SUBJECT:Approve Inter-fund Operating Transfer
Requested Motion:
To approve the Inter-fund Operating Transfer between funds that are necessary to offset temporary
deficit cash balances outline in the attached Inter-fund Transfer Request form.
An Inter-fund Operating Transfer is a nonreciprocal accounting transaction that moves money from
one fund to another without a requirement for repayment.
Introduction:
Governmental finances are complex, an even with tools like software to assist in the reconciliation
process, for some organizations; it can be a case of too many moving parts. As a result, the
reconciliation process remain fraught with opportunities for error.
Successfully managing our reconciliation process begins with understanding all of its potential moving
parts.
Once Council approves the budget, CIP projects that were a part of that budget are started. These
budgeted projects are initially funded through the cash reserves of the General Fund. Throughout the
year, transfers are required to be made from the various funding sources back to the General Fund to
reimburse the General Fund for those monies spent.
To standardize this process, Finance has implemented “quarterly” reconciliation of Balance Sheet
accounts in FY24-25 to increase knowledge of accounting practices in accordance with Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB).
Moreover, in FY25-26, Finance will implement “monthly” reconciliation of Balance Sheet accounts.
These transfers are representative of the funds moving internally from fund to fund. No monies are
gained or lost during this procedure; it is strictly administrative.
Discussion:
Please see attached Inter-fund Transfer Request Form.
Staff Recommendation:
Recommends approval of the attached Inter-fund Operating Transfer request.

CITY COUNCIL Agenda Item Report
Meeting Date: January 7, 2025
Submitted by: Calvin Lehmann
Submitting Department: Parks & Recreation
Item Type: Resolution
Agenda Section:
Subject:
Consider approving a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Construction Services Contract with
Sunbelt Pools to Hydro Blast and Replaster the outdoor pool at the Aquatic Park in an amount not to exceed
$137,221.12 to be funded by the Community Development Corporation. (Lehmann)
Suggested Action:
Background: This is a budgeted item for CDC - Aquatic Park Renovation & Upgrades.
The outdoor pool is currently coated with fiberglass, which is not recommended for commercial pools. When
exposed to the sun and air, the fiberglass can start flaking into the pool and cause safety concerns. This was
noted in the assessment we had done last year. The best way to mitigate for this is by replastering the pool with
a product that can withstand the conditions needed for an outdoor commercial pool.
•Hydroblasting and Replastering: The core of the project involves removing the existing fiberglass coating
and at least one layer of plaster down to the substrate via hydroblasting. The pool will then be resurfaced with a
layer of Diamond Brite Blue Quartz, a more durable product.
•Tile Replacement: The project includes replacing the existing waterline tile, step and bench tiles, and
floor returns with new materials. This ensures a cohesive and refreshed appearance for the entire pool.
•Code Compliance: The project will replace Waterline Depth Markers to meet current code requirements,
ensuring safety for all pool users.

AGENDA ITEM
Information Technology
TO: Mayor, City Council, and City Manager
DATE SUBMITTED: December 30, 2024
MEETING DATE: 01/07/2024
SUMMARY OF
REQUEST:
Consider approval of an Incode software upgrade
Background:
On September 5, 2023, City Council authorized the purchase of an upgrade from Incode 9 to
Incode 10 at a cost of $120,290, with an estimated time to begin implementation around
September of 2024.
Incode is the City’s enterprise software for financial management, utility billing and
municipal court.
All departments currently utilizing Incode are using version 9, an older version of the
software. This version dates to the 1990s. Development on Incode 9 has stopped and is
estimated to become end of life within the next 5-10 years. The latest edition of Incode
(version 10) was released around 2012 and includes several additional features.
When the request for funds was first brought to Council in September of 2023, the plan was to
do an in-place upgrade, keeping Incode software on-premise. However, during the year long
wait to begin implementation and with the hiring of a new Finance Director, we opted to take
another look at our upgrade options.
After some discussion, we decided to upgrade to the cloud-based option instead. The cloud-
based option provides additional features not available with the on-premise version including
workflows, ACFR, and grants.
Funds approved in September 2023 are still available and will be combined with the current
year’s annual maintenance funds to cover any additional costs in year 1. For years 2 and 3 the
annual maintenance budget will be increased by approximately $60,000 per year going
forward. Currently, Incode annual maintenance is around $100,000 per year.
Estimated time to complete this project for all departments will be by the end of 2025, with
Finance being the first department to begin the process and estimated to complete their
portion of the project by June 2025.

have no delivery obligations and we will not ship copies of the Tyler Software as part of the SaaS
Services. You may use the SaaS Services to access updates and enhancements to the Tyler Software,
as further described in Section C(9). The foregoing notwithstanding, to the extent we have sold you
perpetual licenses for Tyler Software, if and listed in the Investment Summary, for which you are
receiving SaaS Services, your rights to use such Tyler Software are perpetual, subject to the terms
54
3
and conditions of this Agreement including, without limitation, Section B(4). We will make any such
software available to you for download.
2. SaaS Fees. You agree to pay us the SaaS Fees. Those amounts are payable in accordance with our
Invoicing and Payment Policy. The SaaS Fees are based on the number of Defined Users and amount
of Data Storage Capacity. You may add additional users or additional data storage capacity on the
terms set forth in Section H(1). In the event you regularly and/or meaningfully exceed the Defined
Users or Data Storage Capacity, we reserve the right to charge you additional fees commensurate
with the overage(s).
3. Ownership.
3.1 We retain all ownership and intellectual property rights to the SaaS Services, the Tyler Software,
and anything developed by us under this Agreement. You do not acquire under this Agreement
any license to use the Tyler Software in excess of the scope and/or duration of the SaaS Services.
3.2 The Documentation is licensed to you and may be used and copied by your employees for
internal, non-commercial reference purposes only.
3.3 You retain all ownership and intellectual property rights to the Data. You expressly recognize
that except to the extent necessary to carry out our obligations contained in this Agreement, we
do not create or endorse any Data used in connection with the SaaS Services.

6. SaaS Services.
6.1 Our SaaS Services are audited at least yearly in accordance with the AICPA’s Statement on
Standards for Attestation Engagements (“SSAE”) No. 21. We have attained, and will maintain,
SOC 1 and SOC 2 compliance, or its equivalent, for so long as you are timely paying for SaaS
Services. The scope of audit coverage varies for some Tyler Software solutions. Upon execution
of a mutually agreeable Non-Disclosure Agreement (“NDA”), we will provide you with a
summary of our compliance report(s) or its equivalent. Every year thereafter, for so long as the
NDA is in effect and in which you make a written request, we will provide that same
55
4
information. If our SaaS Services are provided using a 3rd party data center, we will provide
available compliance reports for that data center.
6.2 You will be hosted on shared hardware in a Tyler data center or in a third-party data center. In
either event, databases containing your Data will be dedicated to you and inaccessible to our
other customers.
6.3 Our Tyler data centers have fully-redundant telecommunications access, electrical power, and
the required hardware to provide access to the Tyler Software in the event of a disaster or
component failure. In the event of a data center failure, we reserve the right to employ our
disaster recovery plan for resumption of the SaaS Services. In that event, we commit to a
Recovery Point Objective (“RPO”) of 24 hours and a Recovery Time Objective (“RTO”) of 24
hours. RPO represents the maximum duration of time between the most recent recoverable
copy of your hosted Data and subsequent data center failure. RTO represents the maximum
duration of time following data center failure within which your access to the Tyler Software
must be restored.
6.4 We conduct annual penetration testing of either the production network and/or web
application to be performed. We will maintain industry standard intrusion detection and
prevention systems to monitor malicious activity in the network and to log and block any such
activity. We will provide you with a written or electronic record of the actions taken by us in the
event that any unauthorized access to your database(s) is detected as a result of our security
protocols. We will undertake an additional security audit, on terms and timing to be mutually
agreed to by the parties, at your written request. You may not attempt to bypass or subvert
security restrictions in the SaaS Services or environments related to the Tyler Software.
Unauthorized attempts to access files, passwords or other confidential information, and
unauthorized vulnerability and penetration test scanning of our network and systems (hosted or
otherwise) is prohibited without the prior written approval of our IT Security Officer.
6.5 We test our disaster recovery plan on an annual basis. Our standard test is not client-specific.
Should you request a client-specific disaster recovery test, we will work with you to schedule
and execute such a test on a mutually agreeable schedule. At your written request, we will
provide test results to you within a commercially reasonable timeframe after receipt of the
request.
6.6 We will be responsible for importing back-up and verifying that you can log-in. You will be
responsible for running reports and testing critical processes to verify the returned Data.
6.7 We provide secure Data transmission paths between each of your workstations and our servers.

visitors to Tyler data centers must be signed in and accompanied by authorized personnel.
Entry attempts to the data center are regularly audited by internal staff and external auditors to
ensure no unauthorized access.

are responsible for the security of cardholder data that we possess, including functions relating
to storing, processing, and transmitting of the cardholder data and affirm that, as of the
56
5
Effective Date, we comply with applicable requirements to be considered PCI DSS compliant and
have performed the necessary steps to validate compliance with the PCI DSS. We agree to
supply the current status of our PCI DSS compliance program in the form of an official
Attestation of Compliance, which can be found at https://www.tylertech.com/about-
us/compliance, and in the event of any change in our status, will comply with applicable notice
requirements.
SECTION C – PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
1. Professional Services. We will provide you the various implementation-related services itemized in
the Investment Summary.
2. Professional Services Fees. You agree to pay us the professional services fees in the amounts set
forth in the Investment Summary. Those amounts are payable in accordance with our Invoicing and
Payment Policy. You acknowledge that the fees stated in the Investment Summary are good-faith
estimates of the amount of time and materials required for your implementation. We will bill you
the actual fees incurred based on the in-scope services provided to you. Any discrepancies in the
total values set forth in the Investment Summary will be resolved by multiplying the applicable
hourly rate by the quoted hours.
3. Additional Services. The Investment Summary contains the scope of services and related costs
(including programming and/or interface estimates) required for the project based on our
understanding of the specifications you supplied. If additional work is required, or if you use or
request additional services, we will provide you with an addendum or change order, as applicable,
outlining the costs for the additional work. The price quotes in the addendum or change order will
be valid for thirty (30) days from the date of the quote.
4. Cancellation. If you cancel services less than four (4) weeks in advance (other than for Force
Majeure or breach by us), you will be liable for all (a) daily fees associated with cancelled
professional services if we are unable to reassign our personnel and (b) any non-refundable travel
expenses already incurred by us on your behalf. We will make all reasonable efforts to reassign
personnel in the event you cancel within four (4) weeks of scheduled commitments.
5. Services Warranty. We will perform the services in a professional, workmanlike manner, consistent
with industry standards. In the event we provide services that do not conform to this warranty, we
will re-perform such services at no additional cost to you.

your personnel, facilities, and equipment as may be reasonably necessary for us to provide
implementation services, subject to any reasonable security protocols or other written policies
provided to us as of the Effective Date, and thereafter as mutually agreed to by you and us.
7. Background Checks. For at least the past twelve (12) years, all of our employees have undergone
criminal background checks prior to hire. All employees sign our confidentiality agreement and
security policies.
8. Client Assistance. You acknowledge that the implementation of the Tyler Software is a cooperative
process requiring the time and resources of your personnel. You agree to use all reasonable efforts
57
6
to cooperate with and assist us as may be reasonably required to meet the agreed upon project
deadlines and other milestones for implementation. This cooperation includes at least working with
us to schedule the implementation-related services outlined in this Agreement. We will not be
liable for failure to meet any deadlines and milestones when such failure is due to Force Majeure or
to the failure by your personnel to provide such cooperation and assistance (either through action
or omission).
9. Maintenance and Support. For so long as you timely pay applicable fees according to the Invoicing
and Payment Policy, then in addition to the terms set forth in the SLA and the Support Call Process,
we will:
9.1 perform our maintenance and support obligations in a professional, good, and workmanlike
manner, consistent with industry standards, to resolve Defects in the Tyler Software (subject to
any applicable release life cycle policy);
9.2 provide support during our established support hours;
9.3 maintain personnel that are sufficiently trained to be familiar with the Tyler Software and Third
Party Software, if any, in order to provide maintenance and support services;
9.4 make available to you all releases to the Tyler Software (including updates and enhancements)
that we make generally available without additional charge to customers who have a
maintenance and support agreement in effect; and
9.5 provide non-Defect resolution support of prior releases of the Tyler Software in accordance with
any applicable release life cycle policy.
We will use all reasonable efforts to perform support services remotely. Currently, we use a third-party
secure unattended connectivity tool called Bomgar, as well as GotoAssist by Citrix. Therefore, you agree
to maintain a high-speed internet connection capable of connecting us to your PCs and server(s). You
agree to provide us with a login account and local administrative privileges as we may reasonably
require to perform remote services. We will, at our option, use the secure connection to assist with
proper diagnosis and resolution, subject to any reasonably applicable security protocols. If we cannot
resolve a support issue remotely, we may be required to provide onsite services. In such event, we will
be responsible for our travel expenses, unless it is determined that the reason onsite support was
required was a reason outside our control. Either way, you agree to provide us with full and free access
to the Tyler Software, working space, adequate facilities within a reasonable distance from the
equipment, and use of machines, attachments, features, or other equipment reasonably necessary for
us to provide the maintenance and support services, all at no charge to us. We strongly recommend
that you also maintain your VPN for backup connectivity purposes.
For the avoidance of doubt, SaaS Fees do not include the following services: (a) onsite support (unless
Tyler cannot remotely correct a Defect in the Tyler Software, as set forth above); (b) application design;
(c) other consulting services; or (d) support outside our normal business hours as listed in our then-
current Support Call Process. Requested services such as those outlined in this section will be billed to
you on a time and materials basis at our then current rates. You must request those services with at
least one (1) week’s advance notice.

SECTION D – THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS
1. Third Party Hardware. We will sell, deliver, and install onsite the Third Party Hardware, if you have
purchased any, for the price set forth in the Investment Summary. Those amounts are payable in
accordance with our Invoicing and Payment Policy.
2. Third Party Software. As part of the SaaS Services, you will receive access to the Third Party
Software and related documentation for internal business purposes only. Your rights to the Third
Party Software will be governed by the Third Party Terms.
3. Third Party Products Warranties.
3.1 We are authorized by each Developer to grant access to the Third Party Software.
3.2 The Third Party Hardware will be new and unused, and upon payment in full, you will receive
free and clear title to the Third Party Hardware.
3.3 You acknowledge that we are not the manufacturer of the Third Party Products. We do not
warrant or guarantee the performance of the Third Party Products. However, we grant and pass
through to you any warranty that we may receive from the Developer or supplier of the Third
Party Products.
4. Third Party Services. If you have purchased Third Party Services, those services will be provided
independent of Tyler by such third-party at the rates set forth in the Investment Summary and in
accordance with our Invoicing and Payment Policy.
SECTION E - INVOICING AND PAYMENT; INVOICE DISPUTES
1. Invoicing and Payment. We will invoice you the SaaS Fees and fees for other professional services in
the Investment Summary per our Invoicing and Payment Policy, subject to Section E(2).
2. Invoice Disputes. If you believe any delivered software or service does not conform to the
warranties in this Agreement, you will provide us with written notice within thirty (30) days of your
receipt of the applicable invoice. The written notice must contain reasonable detail of the issues
you contend are in dispute so that we can confirm the issue and respond to your notice with either a
justification of the invoice, an adjustment to the invoice, or a proposal addressing the issues
presented in your notice. We will work with you as may be necessary to develop an action plan that
outlines reasonable steps to be taken by each of us to resolve any issues presented in your notice.
You may withhold payment of the amount(s) actually in dispute, and only those amounts, until we
complete the action items outlined in the plan. If we are unable to complete the action items
outlined in the action plan because of your failure to complete the items agreed to be done by you,
then you will remit full payment of the invoice. We reserve the right to suspend delivery of all SaaS
Services, including maintenance and support services, if you fail to pay an invoice not disputed as
described above within fifteen (15) days of notice of our intent to do so.

SECTION F – TERM AND TERMINATION
1. Term. This Agreement is binding when signed. The initial term of this Agreement is equal to the
number of years indicated for SaaS Services in Exhibit A, commencing on the first day of the first
month following the date we make the SaaS environment available to you, unless earlier terminated
as set forth below. If no duration is indicated in Exhibit A, the initial term is one (1) year. Upon
expiration of the initial term, this Agreement will renew automatically for additional one (1) year
renewal terms at our then-current SaaS Fees unless terminated in writing by either party at least
sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then-current renewal term. Your right to access or use the
Tyler Software and the SaaS Services will terminate at the end of this Agreement.
2. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated as set forth below. In the event of termination,
you will pay us for all undisputed fees and expenses related to the software, products, and/or
services you have received, or we have incurred or delivered, prior to the effective date of
termination. Disputed fees and expenses in all terminations other than your termination for cause
must have been submitted as invoice disputes in accordance with Section E(2).
2.1 Failure to Pay SaaS Fees. You acknowledge that continued access to the SaaS Services is
contingent upon your timely payment of SaaS Fees. If you fail to timely pay the SaaS Fees, we
may discontinue the SaaS Services and deny your access to the Tyler Software. We may also
terminate this Agreement if you don’t cure such failure to pay within forty-five (45) days of
receiving written notice of our intent to terminate.
2.2 For Cause. If you believe we have materially breached this Agreement, you will invoke the
Dispute Resolution clause set forth in Section H(3). You may terminate this Agreement for cause
in the event we do not cure, or create a mutually agreeable action plan to address, a material
breach of this Agreement within the thirty (30) day window set forth in Section H(3).
2.3 Force Majeure. Either party has the right to terminate this Agreement if a Force Majeure event
suspends performance of the SaaS Services for a period of forty-five (45) days or more.
2.4 Lack of Appropriations. If you should not appropriate or otherwise make available funds
sufficient to utilize the SaaS Services, you may unilaterally terminate this Agreement upon thirty
(30) days written notice to us. You will not be entitled to a refund or offset of previously paid,
but unused SaaS Fees. You agree not to use termination for lack of appropriations as a
substitute for termination for convenience.
SECTION G – INDEMNIFICATION, LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INSURANCE
1. Intellectual Property Infringement Indemnification.
1.1 We will defend you against any third party claim(s) that the Tyler Software or Documentation
infringes that third party’s patent, copyright, or trademark, or misappropriates its trade secrets,
and will pay the amount of any resulting adverse final judgment (or settlement to which we
consent). You must notify us promptly in writing of the claim and give us sole control over its
defense or settlement. You agree to provide us with reasonable assistance, cooperation, and
information in defending the claim at our expense.
60
9
1.2 Our obligations under this Section G(1) will not apply to the extent the claim or adverse final
judgment is based on your use of the Tyler Software in contradiction of this Agreement,
including with non-licensed third parties, or your willful infringement.
1.3 If we receive information concerning an infringement or misappropriation claim related to the
Tyler Software, we may, at our expense and without obligation to do so, either: (a) procure for
you the right to continue its use; (b) modify it to make it non-infringing; or (c) replace it with a
functional equivalent, in which case you will stop running the allegedly infringing Tyler Software
immediately. Alternatively, we may decide to litigate the claim to judgment, in which case you
may continue to use the Tyler Software consistent with the terms of this Agreement.
1.4 If an infringement or misappropriation claim is fully litigated and your use of the Tyler Software
is enjoined by a court of competent jurisdiction, in addition to paying any adverse final
judgment (or settlement to which we consent), we will, at our option, either: (a) procure the
right to continue its use; (b) modify it to make it non-infringing; or (c) replace it with a functional
equivalent. This section provides your exclusive remedy for third party copyright, patent, or
trademark infringement and trade secret misappropriation claims.
2. General Indemnification.
2.1 We will indemnify and hold harmless you and your agents, officials, and employees from and
against any and all third-party claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including
reasonable attorney's fees and costs) for (a) personal injury or property damage to the extent
caused by our negligence or willful misconduct; or (b) our violation of PCI-DSS requirements or a
law applicable to our performance under this Agreement. You must notify us promptly in
writing of the claim and give us sole control over its defense or settlement. You agree to
provide us with reasonable assistance, cooperation, and information in defending the claim at
our expense.
2.2 To the extent permitted by applicable law, you will indemnify and hold harmless us and our
agents, officials, and employees from and against any and all third-party claims, losses,
liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and costs) for (a)
personal injury or property damage to the extent caused by your negligence or willful
misconduct; or (b) your violation of a law applicable to your performance under this Agreement.
We will notify you promptly in writing of the claim and will give you sole control over its defense
or settlement. We agree to provide you with reasonable assistance, cooperation, and
information in defending the claim at your expense.
3. DISCLAIMER. EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT AND TO
THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE HEREBY DISCLAIM ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT
NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, DUTIES, OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CLIENT UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES THAT TYLER
DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR ERRORS THAT RELATE TO USER ERROR.

AGREEMENT, OUR LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER BASED
ON A THEORY OF CONTRACT OR TORT, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY, SHALL BE
61
10
LIMITED TO YOUR ACTUAL DIRECT DAMAGES, NOT TO EXCEED (A) DURING THE INITIAL TERM, AS
SET FORTH IN SECTION F(1), TOTAL FEES PAID AS OF THE TIME OF THE CLAIM; OR (B) DURING ANY
RENEWAL TERM, THE THEN-CURRENT ANNUAL SAAS FEES PAYABLE IN THAT RENEWAL TERM. THE
PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE PRICES SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE SET
IN RELIANCE UPON THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED
UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, AND EACH SHALL APPLY
REGARDLESS OF THE FAILURE OF AN ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY REMEDY. THE FOREGOING
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO CLAIMS THAT ARE SUBJECT TO SECTIONS G(1) AND
G(2).
5. EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY
OF SUCH DAMAGES.
6. Insurance. During the course of performing services under this Agreement, we agree to maintain
the following levels of insurance: (a) Commercial General Liability of at least $1,000,000; (b)
Automobile Liability of at least $1,000,000; (c) Professional Liability of at least $1,000,000; (d)

Liability and Automobile Liability policies, which will automatically add you as an additional insured
to our Excess/Umbrella Liability policy as well. We will provide you with copies of certificates of
insurance upon your written request.
SECTION H – GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Additional Products and Services. You may purchase additional products and services at the rates
set forth in the Investment Summary for twelve (12) months from the Effective Date by executing a
mutually agreed addendum. If no rate is provided in the Investment Summary, or those twelve (12)
months have expired, you may purchase additional products and services at our then-current list
price, also by executing a mutually agreed addendum. The terms of this Agreement will control any
such additional purchase(s), unless otherwise specifically provided in the addendum.
2. Optional Items. Pricing for any listed optional products and services in the Investment Summary will
be valid for twelve (12) months from the Effective Date.
3. Dispute Resolution. You agree to provide us with written notice within thirty (30) days of becoming
aware of a dispute. You agree to cooperate with us in trying to reasonably resolve all disputes,
including, if requested by either party, appointing a senior representative to meet and engage in
good faith negotiations with our appointed senior representative. Senior representatives will
convene within thirty (30) days of the written dispute notice, unless otherwise agreed. All meetings
and discussions between senior representatives will be deemed confidential settlement discussions
not subject to disclosure under Federal Rule of Evidence 408 or any similar applicable state rule. If
we fail to resolve the dispute, then the parties shall participate in non-binding mediation in an effort
to resolve the dispute. If the dispute remains unresolved after mediation, then either of us may
assert our respective rights and remedies in a court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this
section shall prevent you or us from seeking necessary injunctive relief during the dispute resolution
procedures.
62
11
4. Taxes. The fees in the Investment Summary do not include any taxes, including, without limitation,
sales, use, or excise tax. If you are a tax-exempt entity, you agree to provide us with a tax-exempt
certificate. Otherwise, we will pay all applicable taxes to the proper authorities and you will
reimburse us for such taxes. If you have a valid direct-pay permit, you agree to provide us with a
copy. For clarity, we are responsible for paying our income taxes, both federal and state, as
applicable, arising from our performance of this Agreement.
5. Nondiscrimination. We will not discriminate against any person employed or applying for
employment concerning the performance of our responsibilities under this Agreement. This
discrimination prohibition will apply to all matters of initial employment, tenure, and terms of
employment, or otherwise with respect to any matter directly or indirectly relating to employment
concerning race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, ancestry, disability that
is unrelated to the individual's ability to perform the duties of a particular job or position, height,
weight, marital status, or political affiliation. We will post, where appropriate, all notices related to
nondiscrimination as may be required by applicable law.
6. E-Verify. We have complied, and will comply, with the E-Verify procedures administered by the U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services Verification Division for all of our employees assigned to your
project.
7. Subcontractors. We will not subcontract any services under this Agreement without your prior
written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld.
8. Binding Effect; No Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding on, and shall be for the benefit of,
either your or our successor(s) or permitted assign(s). Neither party may assign this Agreement
without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, your consent is not
required for an assignment by us as a result of a corporate reorganization, merger, acquisition, or
purchase of substantially all of our assets.
9. Force Majeure. Except for your payment obligations, neither party will be liable for delays in
performing its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that the delay is caused by Force
Majeure; provided, however, that within ten (10) business days of the Force Majeure event, the
party whose performance is delayed provides the other party with written notice explaining the
cause and extent thereof, as well as a request for a reasonable time extension equal to the
estimated duration of the Force Majeure event.
10. No Intended Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is entered into solely for the benefit of you
and us. No third party will be deemed a beneficiary of this Agreement, and no third party will have
the right to make any claim or assert any right under this Agreement. This provision does not affect
the rights of third parties under any Third Party Terms.
11. Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement represents the entire agreement between you and
us with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any prior agreements, understandings,
and representations, whether written, oral, expressed, implied, or statutory. Purchase orders
submitted by you, if any, are for your internal administrative purposes only, and the terms and
conditions contained in those purchase orders will have no force or effect. This Agreement may
only be modified by a written amendment signed by an authorized representative of each party.
63
12
12. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, the
remainder of this Agreement will be considered valid and enforceable to the fullest extent
permitted by law.
13. No Waiver. In the event that the terms and conditions of this Agreement are not strictly enforced
by either party, such non-enforcement will not act as or be deemed to act as a waiver or
modification of this Agreement, nor will such non-enforcement prevent such party from enforcing
each and every term of this Agreement thereafter.
14. Independent Contractor. We are an independent contractor for all purposes under this Agreement.
15. Notices. All notices or communications required or permitted as a part of this Agreement, such as
notice of an alleged material breach for a termination for cause or a dispute that must be submitted
to dispute resolution, must be in writing and will be deemed delivered upon the earlier of the
following: (a) actual receipt by the receiving party; (b) upon receipt by sender of a certified mail,
return receipt signed by an employee or agent of the receiving party; (c) upon receipt by sender of
proof of email delivery; or (d) if not actually received, five (5) days after deposit with the United
States Postal Service authorized mail center with proper postage (certified mail, return receipt
requested) affixed and addressed to the other party at the address set forth on the signature page
hereto or such other address as the party may have designated by proper notice. The consequences
for the failure to receive a notice due to improper notification by the intended receiving party of a
change in address will be borne by the intended receiving party.
16. Client Lists. You agree that we may identify you by name in client lists, marketing presentations, and
promotional materials.
17. Confidentiality. Both parties recognize that their respective employees and agents, in the course of
performance of this Agreement, may be exposed to confidential information and that disclosure of
such information could violate rights to private individuals and entities, including the parties.
Confidential information is nonpublic information that a reasonable person would believe to be
confidential and includes, without limitation, personal identifying information (e.g., social security
numbers) and trade secrets, each as defined by applicable state law. Each party agrees that it will
not disclose any confidential information of the other party and further agrees to take all reasonable
and appropriate action to prevent such disclosure by its employees or agents. The confidentiality
covenants contained herein will survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement. This
obligation of confidentiality will not apply to information that:
(a) is in the public domain, either at the time of disclosure or afterwards, except by breach of
this Agreement by a party or its employees or agents;
(b) a party can establish by reasonable proof was in that party's possession at the time of initial
disclosure;
(c) a party receives from a third party who has a right to disclose it to the receiving party; or
(d) is the subject of a legitimate disclosure request under the open records laws or similar
applicable public disclosure laws governing this Agreement; provided, however, that in the
event you receive an open records or other similar applicable request, you will give us
prompt notice and otherwise perform the functions required by applicable law.
18. Quarantining of Client Data. Some services provided by Tyler require us to be in possession of your
Data. In the event we detect malware or other conditions associated with your Data that are
64
13
reasonably suspected of putting Tyler resources or other Tyler clients’ data at risk, we reserve the
absolute right to move your Data from its location within a multi-tenancy Tyler hosted environment
to an isolated “quarantined” environment without advance notice. Your Data will remain in such
quarantine for a period of at least six (6) months during which time we will review the Data, and all
traffic associated with the Data, for signs of malware or other similar issues. If no issues are
detected through such reviews during the six (6) month period of quarantine, we will coordinate
with you the restoration of your Data to a non-quarantined environment. In the event your Data
must remain in quarantine beyond this six (6) month period through no fault of Tyler’s, we reserve
the right to require payment of additional fees for the extended duration of quarantine. We will
provide an estimate of what those costs will be upon your request.
19.Business License. In the event a local business license is required for us to perform services
hereunder, you will promptly notify us and provide us with the necessary paperwork and/or contact
information so that we may timely obtain such license.
20.Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
your state of domicile, without regard to its rules on conflicts of law.
21.Multiple Originals and Authorized Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in multiple
originals, any of which will be independently treated as an original document. Any electronic, faxed,
scanned, photocopied, or similarly reproduced signature on this Agreement or any amendment
hereto will be deemed an original signature and will be fully enforceable as if an original signature.
Each party represents to the other that the signatory set forth below is duly authorized to bind that
party to this Agreement.
22.Cooperative Procurement. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we agree that this
Agreement may be used as a cooperative procurement vehicle by eligible jurisdictions. We reserve
the right to negotiate and customize the terms and conditions set forth herein, including but not
limited to pricing, to the scope and circumstances of that cooperative procurement.
23.Data & Insights Solution Terms. Your use of certain Tyler solutions includes Tyler’s Data & Insights
data platform. Your rights, and the rights of any of your end users, to use Tyler’s Data & Insights
data platform is subject to the Data & Insights SaaS Services Terms of Service, available at

Schedule 1
Business Travel Policy
1. Air Travel
A. Reservations & Tickets
The Travel Management Company (TMC) used by Tyler will provide an employee with a direct flight
within two hours before or after the requested departure time, assuming that flight does not add
more than three hours to the employee’s total trip duration and the fare is within $100 (each way)
of the lowest logical fare. If a net savings of $200 or more (each way) is possible through a
connecting flight that is within two hours before or after the requested departure time and that
does not add more than three hours to the employee’s total trip duration, the connecting flight
should be accepted.
Employees are encouraged to make advanced reservations to take full advantage of discount
opportunities. Employees should use all reasonable efforts to make travel arrangements at least
two (2) weeks in advance of commitments. A seven (7) day advance booking requirement is
mandatory. When booking less than seven (7) days in advance, management approval will be
required.
Except in the case of international travel where a segment of continuous air travel is six (6) or more
consecutive hours in length, only economy or coach class seating is reimbursable. Employees shall
not be reimbursed for “Basic Economy Fares” because these fares are non-refundable and have
many restrictions that outweigh the cost-savings.
B. Baggage Fees
Reimbursement of personal baggage charges are based on trip duration as follows:
• Up to five (5) days = one (1) checked bag
• Six (6) or more days = two (2) checked bags
Baggage fees for sports equipment are not reimbursable.
85
Exhibit B
Schedule 1
2
2. Ground Transportation
A. Private Automobile
Mileage Allowance – Business use of an employee’s private automobile will be reimbursed at the
current IRS allowable rate, plus out of pocket costs for tolls and parking. Mileage will be calculated
by using the employee's office as the starting and ending point, in compliance with IRS regulations.
Employees who have been designated a home office should calculate miles from their home.
B. Rental Car
Employees are authorized to rent cars only in conjunction with air travel when cost, convenience,
and the specific situation reasonably require their use. When renting a car for Tyler business,
employees should select a “mid-size” or “intermediate” car. “Full” size cars may be rented when
three or more employees are traveling together. Tyler carries leased vehicle coverage for business
car rentals; except for employees traveling to Alaska and internationally (excluding Canada),
additional insurance on the rental agreement should be declined.
C. Public Transportation
Taxi or airport limousine services may be considered when traveling in and around cities or to and
from airports when less expensive means of transportation are unavailable or impractical. The
actual fare plus a reasonable tip (15-18%) are reimbursable. In the case of a free hotel shuttle to the
airport, tips are included in the per diem rates and will not be reimbursed separately.
D. Parking & Tolls
When parking at the airport, employees must use longer term parking areas that are measured in
days as opposed to hours. Park and fly options located near some airports may also be used. For
extended trips that would result in excessive parking charges, public transportation to/from the
airport should be considered. Tolls will be reimbursed when receipts are presented.
3. Lodging
Tyler’s TMC will select hotel chains that are well established, reasonable in price, and conveniently
located in relation to the traveler's work assignment. Typical hotel chains include Courtyard,
Fairfield Inn, Hampton Inn, and Holiday Inn Express. If the employee has a discount rate with a local
hotel, the hotel reservation should note that discount and the employee should confirm the lower
rate with the hotel upon arrival. Employee memberships in travel clubs such as AAA should be
noted in their travel profiles so that the employee can take advantage of any lower club rates.
“No shows” or cancellation fees are not reimbursable if the employee does not comply with the
hotel’s cancellation policy.
Tips for maids and other hotel staff are included in the per diem rate and are not reimbursed
separately.
86
Exhibit B
Schedule 1
3
Employees are not authorized to reserve non-traditional short-term lodging, such as Airbnb, VRBO,
and HomeAway. Employees who elect to make such reservations shall not be reimbursed.
4. Meals and Incidental Expenses
Employee meals and incidental expenses while on travel status within the continental U.S. are in
accordance with the federal per diem rates published by the General Services Administration.
Incidental expenses include tips to maids, hotel staff, and shuttle drivers and other minor travel
expenses. Per diem rates are available at www.gsa.gov/perdiem.
Per diem for Alaska, Hawaii, U.S. protectorates and international destinations are provided
separately by the Department of State and will be determined as required.
A. Overnight Travel
For each full day of travel, all three meals are reimbursable. Per diems on the first and last day of a
trip are governed as set forth below.
Departure Day
Depart before 12:00 noon Lunch and dinner
Depart after 12:00 noon
Return Day
Dinner
Return before 12:00 noon Breakfast
Return between 12:00 noon & 7:00 p.m. Breakfast and lunch
Return after 7:00 p.m.* Breakfast, lunch and dinner
*7:00 p.m. is defined as direct travel time and does not include time taken to stop for dinner.
The reimbursement rates for individual meals are calculated as a percentage of the full day per diem
as follows:
Breakfast 15%
Lunch 25%
Dinner 60%
B. Same Day Travel
Employees traveling at least 100 miles to a site and returning in the same day are eligible to claim
lunch on an expense report. Employees on same day travel status are eligible to claim dinner in the
event they return home after 7:00 p.m.*
*7:00 p.m. is defined as direct travel time and does not include time taken to stop for dinner.
87
Exhibit B

5. Internet Access – Hotels and Airports
Employees who travel may need to access their e-mail at night. Many hotels provide free high
speed internet access and Tyler employees are encouraged to use such hotels whenever possible. If
an employee’s hotel charges for internet access it is reimbursable up to $10.00 per day. Charges for
internet access at airports are not reimbursable.
6. International Travel
All international flights with the exception of flights between the U.S. and Canada should be
reserved through TMC using the “lowest practical coach fare” with the exception of flights that are
six (6) or more consecutive hours in length. In such event, the next available seating class above
coach shall be reimbursed.
When required to travel internationally for business, employees shall be reimbursed for photo fees,
application fees, and execution fees when obtaining a new passport book, but fees related to
passport renewals are not reimbursable. Visa application and legal fees, entry taxes and departure
taxes are reimbursable.
The cost of vaccinations that are either required for travel to specific countries or suggested by the
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services for travel to specific countries, is reimbursable.
Section 4, Meals & Incidental Expenses, and Section 2.b., Rental Car, shall apply to this section.

SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT
I. Agreement Overview
This SLA operates in conjunction with, and does not supersede or replace any part of, the Agreement. It
outlines the information technology service levels that we will provide to you to ensure the availability of
the application services that you have requested us to provide. All other support services are documented
in the Support Call Process. This SLA does not apply to any Third Party SaaS Services. All other support
services are documented in the Support Call Process.
II. Definitions. Except as defined below, all defined terms have the meaning set forth in the
Agreement.
Actual Attainment: The percentage of time the Tyler Software is available during a calendar month,
calculated as follows: (Service Availability – Downtime) ÷ Service Availability.
Client Error Incident: Any service unavailability resulting from your applications, content or equipment, or
the acts or omissions of any of your service users or third-party providers over whom we exercise no
control.
Downtime: Those minutes during Service Availability, as defined below, when all users cannot launch,
login, search or save primary data in the Tyler Software. Downtime does not include those instances in
which only a Defect is present.
Emergency Maintenance Window: (1) maintenance that is required to patch a critical security
vulnerability; (2) maintenance that is required to prevent an imminent outage of Service Availability; or
(3) maintenance that is mutually agreed upon in writing by Tyler and the Client.
Planned Downtime: Downtime that occurs during a Standard or Emergency Maintenance window.
Service Availability: The total number of minutes in a calendar month that the Tyler Software is capable
of receiving, processing, and responding to requests, excluding Planned Downtime, Client Error Incidents,
denial of service attacks and Force Majeure. Service Availability only applies to Tyler Software being used
in the live production environment.
Standard Maintenance: Routine maintenance to the Tyler Software and infrastructure. Standard
Maintenance is limited to five (5) hours per week.
III. Service Availability
a. Your Responsibilities
Whenever you experience Downtime, you must make a support call according to the procedures outlined
in the Support Call Process. You will receive a support case number.
89
Exhibit C
2
b. Our Responsibilities
When our support team receives a call from you that Downtime has occurred or is occurring, we will work
with you to identify the cause of the Downtime (including whether it may be the result of Planned
Downtime, a Client Error Incident, denial of service attack or Force Majeure). We will also work with you
to resume normal operations.
c. Client Relief
Our targeted Attainment Goal is 100%. You may be entitled to credits as indicated in the Client Relief
Schedule found below. Your relief credit is calculated as a percentage of the SaaS Fees paid for the
calendar month.
In order to receive relief credits, you must submit a request through one of the channels listed in our
Support Call Process within fifteen days (15) of the end of the applicable month. We will respond to your
relief request within thirty (30) day(s) of receipt.
The total credits confirmed by us will be applied to the SaaS Fee for the next billing cycle. Issuing of such
credit does not relieve us of our obligations under the Agreement to correct the problem which created
the service interruption.
Credits are only payable when Actual Attainment results in eligibility for credits in consecutive months
and only for such consecutive months.
Client Relief Schedule
Actual Attainment Client Relief
99.99% - 98.00% Remedial action will be taken
97.99% - 95.00% 4%
Below 95.00% 5%
IV. Maintenance Notifications
We perform Standard Maintenance during limited windows that are historically known to be reliably
low-traffic times. If and when maintenance is predicted to occur during periods of higher traffic, we will
provide advance notice of those windows and will coordinate to the greatest extent possible with you.
Not all maintenance activities will cause application unavailability. However, if Tyler anticipates that
activities during a Standard or Emergency Maintenance window may make the Tyler Software
unavailable, we will provide advance notice, as reasonably practicable, that the Tyler Software will be
unavailable during the maintenance window.

Support Call Process
Support Channels
Tyler Technologies, Inc. provides the following channels of software support for authorized users*:
(1) On-line submission (portal) – for less urgent and functionality-based questions, users may create
support incidents through the Tyler Customer Portal available at the Tyler Technologies website.
A built-in Answer Panel provides users with resolutions to most “how-to” and configuration-
based questions through a simplified search interface with machine learning, potentially
eliminating the need to submit the support case.
(2) Email – for less urgent situations, users may submit emails directly to the software support
group.
(3) Telephone – for urgent or complex questions, users receive toll-free, telephone software
support.
* Channel availability may be limited for certain applications.
Support Resources
A number of additional resources are available to provide a comprehensive and complete support
experience:
(1) Tyler Website – www.tylertech.com – for accessing client tools, documentation, and other
information including support contact information.
(2) Tyler Search -a knowledge based search engine that lets you search multiple sources
simultaneously to find the answers you need, 24x7.
(3) Tyler Community –provides a venue for all Tyler clients with current maintenance agreements to
collaborate with one another, share best practices and resources, and access documentation.
(4) Tyler University – online training courses on Tyler products.
Support Availability
Tyler Technologies support is available during the local business hours of 8 AM to 5 PM (Monday –
Friday) across four US time zones (Pacific, Mountain, Central and Eastern). Tyler’s holiday schedule is
outlined below. There will be no support coverage on these days.
New Year’s Day Labor Day
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Thanksgiving Day
Memorial Day Day after Thanksgiving
Independence Day Christmas Day
For support teams that provide after-hours service, we will provide you with procedures for contacting
support staff after normal business hours for reporting Priority Level 1 Defects only. Upon receipt of
91
Exhibit C
Schedule 1
2
such a Defect notification, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet the resolution targets
set forth below.
We will also make commercially reasonable efforts to be available for one pre-scheduled Saturday of
each month to assist your IT staff with applying patches and release upgrades, as well as consulting with
them on server maintenance and configuration of the Tyler Software environment.
Incident Handling
Incident Tracking
Every support incident is logged into Tyler’s Customer Relationship Management System and given a
unique case number. This system tracks the history of each incident. The case number is used to track
and reference open issues when clients contact support. Clients may track incidents, using the case
number, through Tyler’s Customer Portal or by calling software support directly.
Incident Priority
Each incident is assigned a priority level, which corresponds to the Client’s needs. Tyler and the Client
will reasonably set the priority of the incident per the chart below. This chart is not intended to address
every type of support incident, and certain “characteristics” may or may not apply depending on
whether the Tyler software has been deployed on customer infrastructure or the Tyler cloud. The goal is
to help guide the Client towards clearly understanding and communicating the importance of the issue
and to describe generally expected response and resolution targets in the production environment only.
References to a “confirmed support incident” mean that Tyler and the Client have successfully validated
the reported Defect/support incident.
Priority
Level

one or more of the client’s remote
location; or (c) systemic loss of
multiple essential system functions.
Tyler shall provide an initial response to Priority Level
1 incidents within one (1) business hour of receipt of
the incident. Once the incident has been confirmed,
Tyler shall use commercially reasonable efforts to

*Response and Resolution Targets may differ by product or business need
Incident Escalation
If Tyler is unable to resolve any priority level 1 or 2 defect as listed above or the priority of an issue has
elevated since initiation, you may escalate the incident to the appropriate resource, as outlined by each
product support team. The corresponding resource will meet with you and any Tyler staff to establish a
mutually agreeable plan for addressing the defect.

DATE SUBMITTED: December 30, 2024
MEETING DATE: 01/07/2024
SUMMARY OF
REQUEST:
Consider approval of a replacement enterprise backup solution
Purpose:
This memo outlines the key challenges faced with the current backup storage and the benefits
of replacing the existing enterprise backup solution with a more effective and efficient
alternative.
Current Challenges:
1. Reliability Issues:
The current backup system is 7 years old, has reached end of life and is no longer
supported, exposing the City’s backups to potential data loss and operational
disruptions.
2. Scalability Limitations:
The current system struggles to handle growing data volumes, resulting in
performance bottlenecks, reduced backup retention time and additional staff time to
manage the limited storage.
3. Outdated Technology:
The existing solution lacks critical modern features such as advanced encryption and
ransomware protection.
Benefits of Proposed Enterprise Backup Storage Replacement Solution:
After a thorough evaluation of market-leading backup solutions, we propose adopting Pure
Storage which offers the following advantages:
1. Enhanced Reliability:
Improved backup success rates and faster recovery times, ensuring business continuity
and minimizing downtime.
2. Scalability and Flexibility:
Offers excellent deduplication and compression of backup data, allowing us to store
many more months of backups. Has scalability to support City’s increased data
97
footprint for many years to come. Can be used as a failover for the City’s enterprise
storage solution.
3. Risk Mitigation:
Enhanced reliability and security, including robust data encryption and ransomware
protection minimize the risk of data loss, breaches, and non-compliance penalties.
4. Improved Efficiency:
Faster backups and recoveries, coupled with reduced manual intervention, boost
operational efficiency.
5. Future-Proofing:
The new solution’s scalability and modern capabilities support the City’s growth and
needs over the next decade.
Budget:
1. Budgeted funds are available for this project.

From: Matt Winnett, Assistant Police Chief

Additionally, officers are required to participate in biannual firearms qualifications with their handguns,

Item Type: Expenditures
Agenda Section:
Subject:
Consider approving a resolution authorizing the City Manager to issue a purchase order to CAN-EX
Technologies in the amount of $199,988.00 for an alternative purchase of two ZIPCAM 360 camera crawler
systems. (Whitt)
Suggested Action:
New products have been introduced since this item was originally budgeted. The original purchase was for a
new sanitary sewer camera crawler with an enclosed built out trailer with office, computer, HVAC, generator,
computers, and tool boxes. Staff has found a much more inexpensive design that allows the department to
purchase 2 cameras instead of 1 of the old design. Coupled with the streamlined camera capabilities it will have
a lower maintenance and replacement costs going forward. Attached are the costs for both systems and a
more detailed explanation as to the reasons for the change in model.

Subject: Sewer crawler camera
The original approved purchase was for a traditional sewer crawler camera system, and a direct
replacement for an existing camera system in use by the waste water collection department.
The approved camera system was originally chosen because it is the most common style
camera used by most waste water departments.
These traditional camera systems work fairly well, except for one issue, the camera system is
proprietary to each manufacture, when the camera breaks, get moisture inside it, or the lens
becomes damaged it must be sent back to the manufacture for repairs, these are timely and not
cheap
We have a new manager over the waste water department and he was exploring optional
camera systems that were more robust, less costly to maintain, or could be repaired in-house.
The camera system we are requesting has several benefits over traditional cameras but the
most impressive upgrade is the actually camera, it uses a Go-Pro camera instead of a
proprietary camera system, Go-Pro cameras have survived being submerged in over 200 feet,
can withstand temperatures in excess of -13˚F to 185˚F and have been to space both on
rockets and are used on the Space Station, they are incredibly durable. If the Go-Pro becomes
damaged a new one can be purchased for around $400 instead of several thousand for
manufacture repairs. Also, traditional cameras need computers to view the footage where the
Zipcam camera will Bluetooth to any phone. This purchase is for 2 camera crawlers instead of
the single camera crawler in the original budget request.

Subject: Odor Control Blower Motor Repair
The requested funds are for the repair of a blower motor, which provides forced air for the
Waste Water Treatment Plant odor control building. During a normal switching from one blower
to the other, the operator closed valves on both the intake and exhaust sides of the blower
motor causing the motor to overheat. The operator had no way of knowing that the valves were
in conflict as there were no controls or any system in place to notify the operator of the conflict.
This system was designed, installed, and integrated by multiple contractors, Gracon
Engineering, Prime Controls, Clark Electric, Paradyne Blowers and New York Blowers. The
conditions which allowed both valves to be closed at the same time was not known by any of
the parties involved with the installation of this equipment until the equipment was already
damaged.
To prevent any future damage we have provided additional training to our operators on proper
valve operation, including visual inspections whenever the valves are operated. We have also
installed signage alerting the operators to verify that the valves are in the correct operating
positions, and will be requesting a SCADA integration on these valves in next year’s budget.
Additionally, we are conducting a plant wide survey to identify any additional points of failure or
conflict, as well as specific review steps during the design of the next plant expansion.
