BOARD AGENDA ITEM 6a
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Julie Ryan, Engineering Department Manager
MEETING DATE: April 4, 2019
ITEM – PROJECT NAME: 2019 Heavenly Tank Improvements Project
REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: (1) Hold a Public Hearing at 2:05 p.m., to receive comments on
the designation of the 2019 Heavenly Tank Improvements Project as “substantially complex”
under Public Contract Code Section 7201; (2) Pursuant to the facts, find the project
substantially complex and requires a 10% retention limit; and (3) Authorize staff to advertise
for construction bids for the 2019 Heavenly Tank Improvements Project.
DISCUSSION: At 2:05 p.m., open the Public Hearing to receive public comments on the
designation of the 2019 Heavenly Tank Improvements Project as “substantially complex.”
This project is considered high priority for the 2019 building season and is a required
prerequisite for the upcoming Keller Water Tank replacement. Further, this tank needs to be
returned to service by November 2019, to allow the District to provide snow-making water to
Heavenly Valley Resort for the 2019/20 ski season.
Based on a 2012 inspection report by an outside consultant specializing in coatings, the tank
interior coating has reached the end of its useful life and needs to be replaced. In addition
to the tank interior recoat, the project will address needed maintenance and improvements
to the tank and tank site, including: an exterior coating overcoat with anti-graffiti coating to
combat the historic graffiti issues at this site, a passive mixing system to improve tank water
quality, a passive cathodic protection system to prevent corrosion and improve the coating’s
service life, replacement and improvement of site best management practices (BMP’s)
including a new interlocking block retaining wall, and a wrought iron security fence.
Plans and specifications are currently being finalized by staff. The current schedule is to
advertise for bids beginning April 14, with a bid opening of May 23, and construction to be
completed this summer beginning June 24 and finishing by October 11. The Engineer’s
Estimate for the project, based on recent bid results and general bidding climate, is $783,000.

Legislative amendments to the Public Contract Code, effective January 1, 2012, limit the
amount of retention the District can withhold from a contractor for a capital project to 5% of
the total Contract amount. However, the retention amount may exceed 5% if the Board, at
a properly noticed and normally scheduled Public Hearing, finds that the project is
substantially complex,” and that the nature of the project merits a higher retention amount.
On February 2, 2012, the Board adopted Resolution No. 2904-12, whereby the Board resolved
that when bidding capital projects, the criteria identified therein will be used to determine
whether a project is substantially complex such that it justifies a retention amount higher than
5%.
Staff recommends that the Board designate the project as substantially complex and merits
a retention amount of 10%. Staff considers this project as substantially complex in
accordance with the criteria established in Resolution No. 2904-12.
a. The Lake Tahoe Basin is a unique area, which, due to its high environmental
sensitivity, is highly regulated by Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA).
b. TRPA imposes environmental regulations and special requirements on contractors
that they would not normally experience outside of the Lake Tahoe Basin.
c. Based on the critical nature of these facilities, the duration that these facilities are out
of operation must be minimized.
d. Two or more different trades or subcontractors are anticipated to be involved in the
construction of this project.
e. The construction schedule is a significant concern because of the compressed
construction season within the Lake Tahoe Basin.
f. Tank coating is not a routine project performed by the District.

BOARD AGENDA ITEM 6d
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Nancy A. Hussmann, Human Resources Director
MEETING DATE: April 4, 2019
ITEM – PROJECT NAME: Presentation of Results of Compensation Study
REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: Receive Report from Consultant Doug Johnson of Ralph
Andersen and Associates.
DISCUSSION: The District sent Requests for Proposal to select a consultant to conduct a
Comprehensive Compensation Study as negotiated at the June 29, 2017, Union and
Management Memorandums of Understanding, and selected Ralph Andersen and
Associates as the new consultant. A kick-off meeting was held in November 2017, and
parameters of the study were shared with a committee consisting of both labor and
management. New comparator agencies were agreed to by the committee based
on indexes published by the Economic Research Institute, both for Cost of Living and
Wages. The end result is that 24 agencies were considered comparable agencies to
the District.
Data collection took quite a bit longer than expected, due to the fact that this was the
first time this consultant had performed work for the District. Preliminary results were
then reviewed by the committee and additional information was requested of the
consultant, in addition to requests for a more careful review of the actual job functions
of many positions beyond just the title, education, and experience requirements. A
final draft summary and corresponding data sheets were received in December 2018
and additional information was requested regarding total compensation data. This
was received in March 2019.
Additionally, during the 2017 negotiations, it was agreed that the selected consultant
would provide an analysis of which Consumer Price Index (CPI ) would be best utilized
by the District. This work was done concurrently with the data collection phase, with
several options presented to the committee for a policy decision to be negotiated
during the implementation phase.
