Exhibit 1 - Agenda Information SheetCity of Denton _____________________________________________________________________________________ AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET DEPARTMENT: Procurement ACM: Cassey Ogden DATE: March 21, 2023 SUBJECT Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation, rejecting any and all competitive statements of qualifications under RFQ 8061 for the Asset Management Vision for the Water Utilities Department; and providing an effective date (RFQ 8061). The Public Utilities Board recommends approval (7 - 0). INFORMATION/BACKGROUND The Water Utilities Department recently solicited an RFQ for an Asset Management Vision project to assist the department in developing a common vision to refine the various maintenance and operational programs into a robust Asset Management program. While this project would be beneficial to the Water Utilities Department, the department is deferring the project in favor of a City-wide approach to Asset Management that will benefit all departments. With new initiatives in place to pursue this City-wide approach, staff recommends rejecting all proposals submitted for the departmental project. Staff does not anticipate returning to Council for approvals relating to this project but expects to support City-wide efforts as they take shape. In accordance with the Local Government Code 252.043, the City Council may reject any and all bids. PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW (COUNCIL, BOARDS, COMMISSIONS) On March 13, 2023, the Public Utilities Board (PUB) recommended this item to the City Council for consideration. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends rejection of all proposals for Asset Management Vision for the Water Utilities Department.
