1. Consent Calendar.
a. Consider approval of an agreement to purchase a portion of real property (SG-MDE-2-11-A) from Michael & Kimberly Bringhurst.
BACKGROUND and RECOMMENDATION: The subject property is located within a FEMA regulatory floodway and overlaps a city sewer easement. City staff determined that an encroachment occurred within the floodway/easement area, creating a FEMA compliance issue and potential risk to the City's sewer facilities and access. As part of resolving the floodway violation and preventing any future encroachment, the city initiated an offer to purchase the property to provide a permanent solution and protect the floodway and sewer easement. The City has a reimbursement agreement with the Washington County Flood Control Authority for reimbursement of this property purchase. The total purchase amount is set at $9,300.00. Staff recommends approval.
b. Consider approval of a Professional Services Agreement with LS Pretreatment Consulting, LLC for the Local Limits Development Project.
BACKGROUND and RECOMMENDATION: Local Limits are established to protect the St. George Regional Water Reclamation Facility (SGRWRF) operations and to ensure that its discharges comply with State and Federal requirements. The Local Limits are based on site-specific conditions. Among the factors considered in developing local limits are the plant's efficiency in treating waste, the City's history of compliance with its NPDES permit limits, the condition of the water body that receives its treated effluent, any water quality standards that are applicable to the water body receiving our effluent, and the SGRWRF's retention, use, and disposal of sewage sludge. The Utah Division of Environmental Quality requires that each treatment facility develop a Local Limits and update the Local Limits periodically. The consulting contract award amount is $154,800.00. Staff recommends approval.
c. Consider approval of a professional services agreement with Rosenberg Associates for the new Street Office and Bay Building for the Reuse Center.

The area will be fenced in, and security will be provided at the event.
