EQUIPMENT FOR CONSTRUCTION &MAINTENANCE: Superintendent McCracken requested permission to purchase a flatbed truck with liftgate and anãir compressor with air hammer,air hose and drill steel to 12 foot lengths.The Committee recommends obtaining competitive bids on the truck and air compressor.Using State bid quotations,a 15,000 lb.GVW truck with 12 foot flatbed and liftgate will cost approximately $5,150.00.An approximate cost on the air compressor and equipment is $7,500.00. There being no further business,the meeting adjourned. 11czf .C:C/ LloydAa)Duncan Business Office Manager JAN -‘*4 TOWN tiE EJi.c BOARD OF [JLi 5.FREE OF SANITARY DEFECTS No observed cross-connections Enclosed finished water storage Well heads not in pits Proper well seal installed 6.SOURCE Intake location satisfactory No upstream contamination controllable by &qck £Jy”-’,:;v9 C/ Source:FF7LL k’,ve /tf77P&J Treatment:1L1EI-fl7W f Cap.M.G.D.:_______________________________ Number Taps:________________________________ in NO”column indicates unsatisfactory condition to COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH DIVISION OF ENGINEERING &SANITATION DRINKING WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM ANNUAL INSPECTION A B C D E CATEGORY J/7 II II [j File No.County_____________ Facility Name:)Ek %:/fa --.Si.”/’’cJ Street or P.O.Box /7)?

Two methods were used in figuring these costs,as detailed on the enclosed calculation sheets.The cost by each method is: Method A Fixed -$33.10/lot/year (whether the lot is occupied or not) Variable -$0.03/lot/i ,000 gallons used above minimum Method B Fixed -$30.70/lot/year (whether the lot is occupied or not) Variable —$0.05/lot/l,000 gallons used above minimum Fixed cost items are items of cost that occur whether water is pumped or not and should be paid as a part of the minimum charge levied against every lot served or that could be served by the pump station.Variable cost items are items of cost that vary with the amount of water pumped and should be paid on that basis.Fixed and variable costs were calculated on the same basis as the present metered rate for water usage as given in the Town of Estes Park Municipal Code. It is felt that due to the relatively small number of commercial users as compared to residential users,the fixed and variable costs are applicable to all tap sizes,in addition to the present rates.These additional costs are direct expenses to the Town and should be recouped as such,with any “profit” being considered a function of direct water sales. If you have any questions or comments,we will be glad to discuss them with you either in person or by telephone. Very truly yours, DM]M —PHILLIPSREISTER,INC.

III.Method A: Following is the cost breakdown per item - 1.Electric power (Fixed +Variable): a.Fixed Cost — 82 gal ./lot/day pumped @ $0.02/KWH =$0.0022/lot/day =$0.80/lot/year b.Variable Cost - 400 -82 =318 gal ./lot/day pumped @ $0.02/KWH =$0.0086/lot/day =$3.14 /lot/year =$0.027/lot/l,000 gallons Say $0.03 /lot/l,000 gallons O() 2.Manpower (Fixed): Co a.Building - $7,500 .00/30 b.Controls and $1 ,000.00/10 years =$250.00/year =$5.00/lot/year Electrical — years $100.00/year =$2.00/lot/year c.Pumps/Motors - $2,000.00/5 years =$400.00/year =$8.00/lot/year Total fixed and variable costs per lot per year are: a.Fixed - Electric Power Manpower Mai ntenance Building Controls &Elec.

One alternate is to consider a part of the equipment replacement costs to be variable with the amount of water used,as the pumps and controls will still need replacing,even though they are not used as often.The building is obviously not dependent on the amount of water pumped. Following is a cost breakdown per item number 4 — 4.Equipment Replacement (Fixed +Variable): a.Building (Fixed)— Same as Method A. a.104 hours/yr.x $6.40/hour =$665.60/year =$13.30/lot/year 3.Maintenance (Fixed): a.2 times x $100.00/time =$200.00/year. =$4.00/lot/year 4.Equipment Replacement (Fixed): -2- GQ b.Controls and Electrical (80%Fixed +20%Variable)— (1)Fixed Cost - ($1,000.00/b years)(0.80) (2)Variable Cost — ($1 ,000.00/bO years)(0.20) =$80.00/year =$1 .60/lot/year =$20.00/year =$0.40/lot/year. =$0.003/lot/l,000 gallons. c.Pumps/Motors (75%Fixed +25%Variable)- (1)Fixed Cost - ($2,000.00/5 years)(0.75) (2)Variable Cost — ($2,000.00/5 years)(0.25) =$300.00/year =$6.00/lot/year =$100.00/year =$2.00/year =$0.0l7/lot/7,000 gallons Total fixed and variable costs per lot per year are: a.Fixed - Electric Power Manpower Mai ntenance Building Controls &Elec.
