COMMISSION ITEM SUMMARY
Condensed Title:
A Resolution Of The Mayor And City Commission Of The City Of Miami Beach, Florida, Approving And
Authorizing The Mayor And City Clerk To Execute Change Order No. 1 To Lanzo Construction Co.
Florida, For The Purchase And Installation Of Automatic Meter Readers For The Venetian Islands Bid
Package 13C Right-Of-Way Infrastructure Improvement Project, In The Amount Of $195,532 Plus
$19,553 For Contingency; For A Total Cost Of$215,085 From Previously Appropriated Funds From 423
—Gulfbreeze 2006 Fund.
Key Intended Outcome Supported:
Ensure Value and Timely Delivery of Quality Capital Projects, Improve Storm Drainage Citywide,
and Maintain City's Infrastructure.
Supporting Data (Surveys, Environmental Scan, etc.): The 2012 Customer Satisfaction Survey
indicated that over 81% of residents rated recently completed capital improvement projects as
"excellent" or"good".
Issue:
Shall the Mayor and City Commission Adopt The Resolution?
Item Summary/Recommendation:
As an initiative to streamline their meter reading process, Public Works Department requested that the
existing water meters be replaced with Automatic Meter Readers (AMR), during the installation of the
new water mains. The meters should have the ability to be remotely read so as not to require the
physical inspection of the meter to obtain the reading. The AMR will reduce personnel costs associated
with routine readings and improve customer service as future reading could be instantaneous. The
AMR reduces personnel meter reading time by 70%. This type of system has the capability of being
read either from a vehicle or via a fixed network of antennas.
Currently, the proposed AMR technology will receive data via a hand held device which will be used for
downloading readings to a computerized billing system. It will largely eliminate the need for estimated
bills. Since it is an automated system, the AMR eliminates the need for meter reading personnel to visit
customer properties. In addition, it allows the reading of the meters without requiring physical access to
the meter which very often is located behind fences and gates, requiring coordination for access to the
private property by City staff.
Lanzo Construction submitted the price proposal in the amount of $195,532 (Attachment A) to furnish
and install the required automatic meter readers. The Engineer of Record, Schwebke, Shishkin &
Associates (SSA), estimated that the probable construction cost for this work was $213,530, therefore,
the price proposal was acceptable.
Schwebke, Shishkin & Associates provided their assessment of the cost and submitted their
recommendation letter stating that the price proposal submitted by Lanzo was fair and reasonable (see
Attachment B). City staff also reviewed the proposal and found that the amount was fair and reasonable.
The funding for this work was previously approved via a budget amendment.

BACKGROUND
Pursuant to Invitation to Bid (ITB) No. 49-11/12, for the Right-of-Way Infrastructure Improvement
Program — Venetian Islands Bid Package 13C, on March 13th, 2013, the Commission authorized
the award of a construction contract to Lanzo Construction Co. Florida, in the amount of
$9,699,509 base bid plus $640,028 for selected alternates (sanitary sewer lining and road
reconstruction) and a project contingency in the amount of $1,033,954; for a total construction
cost of $11,373,491. The project's scope of work included the connection to existing water
meters.
As an initiative to streamline their meter reading process, Public Works Department requested
that the existing water meters be replaced with Automatic Meter Readers (AMR), during the
installation of the new water mains. The meters should have the ability to be remotely read so as
not to require the physical inspection of the meter to obtain the reading. The AMR will reduce
personnel costs associated with routine readings and improve customer service as future reading
could be instantaneous. The AMR reduces personnel meter reading time by 70%. This type of
system has the capability of being read either from a vehicle or via a fixed network of antennas.

Currently, the proposed AMR technology will receive data via a hand held device which will be
used for downloading readings to a computerized billing system. It will largely eliminate the need
for estimated bills. Since it is an automated system, the AMR eliminates the need for meter
reading personnel to visit customer properties. In addition, it allows the reading of the meters
without requiring physical access to the meter which very often is located behind fences and
gates, requiring coordination for access to the private property by City staff. In the future, the
proposed AMRs can be retrofitted to allow remote access via computer network/web access and,
staff can access each property to read the consumption real time thru this software.
COST ANALYSIS
Lanzo Construction submitted the price proposal in the amount of $195,532 (Attachment A) to
furnish and install the required automatic meter readers. The Engineer of Record, Schwebke,
Shishkin & Associates (SSA), estimated that the probable construction cost for this work was
$213,530, therefore, the price proposal was acceptable.
Schwebke, Shishkin & Associates provided their assessment of the cost and submitted their
recommendation letter stating that the price proposal submitted by Lanzo was fair and
reasonable (see Attachment B). City staff also reviewed the proposal and found that the amount
was fair and reasonable. The funding for this work was previously approved via a budget
amendment.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission adopt the attached
resolution, approving and authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute Change Order No. 1 to
Lanzo Construction Co. Florida, for the Right-of-Way Infrastructure Improvement Program —
Venetian Islands Bid Package 13C, in the amount of $195,532 plus $19,553 for contingency; for
a total cost of$215,085.
