TO: James S. Mocalis, City Manager
FROM: W. D. Murphy, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Approval of 24 -Hour Staffing at Treatment Plant
(SERRA)
SITUATION
Discussions have been held with the SERRA Board of Directors
relative to 24-hour staffing at the SERRA Treatment Plant.
Member agencies of Project Committee No. 2 have received
information on 24-hour staffing from the City and the Engineer
of SERRA. The City is recommending to SERRA 24-hour staffing
of the plant to mitigate any future costly plant malfunctions
that could happen in the evenings and any maintenance which
may cause odors during the day, which could be otherwise formed
at night.
Attached is a copy of a Memorandum of Understanding between SERRA
and the City of San Juan Capistrano. This Memorandum of Under-
standing would provide for the City to operate and staff the
treatment plant on a 24-hour per day, seven day per week basis.
The Operations and Maintenance Agreement which has been approved
by the Board of Directors of SERRA and the City Council provide
for the City to operate the plant on an eight hour, seven day per
week schedule. The agreement further provides for SERRA to elect
to have the City operate the plant on a 24-hour per day, seven
day per week basis. The Board of Directors of SERRA has indicated
that it does desire 24-hour staffing of the treatment plant.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
A project budget is attached to the Memorandum of Understanding
and specifies a $90,475 cost for additional manpower to staff the
plant on a 24-hour basis annually. Respective boards of Project
Committee No. 2 must adopt this budget and the concept prior to
execution by SERRA of the Memorandum of Understanding. The
$90,475 is the cost for five additional personnel, including
employee benefits. The present cost in manpower for the 11 member
staff at the treatment plant is $217,886 annually. The total cost
to SERRA and participants of Project Committee No. 2 for a 16 per-
son staff is $308,361 annually. Of this amount the City is required
to pay a percentage of 23.2 that amounts to $71,029.
