A copy of the Ordinance (02019-08) is incorporated into these minutes as Attachment #9. Resolution adopting tentative Bid Award for the Black River W WTP Aeration Project Public Utilities Director Adams and Engineer Michael Goliber with Davis Martin Powell presented recommendation for Council to tentatively award a contract to low bidder, Laughlin -Sutton Construction for the Black River W WTP Aeration System Replacement Project in the amount of $2,649,400 contingent upon the review and concurrence of the Division of Water Infrastructure. The low bid submitted by Laughlin -Sutton was higher than the estimated construction cost. Davis - Martin -Powell & Associates has worked with staff to identify possible changes to the project to reduce cost. The project included Bid Item A.2 Clarifier Distribution Modifications at a cost of $350,000. By eliminating this component, the overall project cost reduces to $3,173,300. The City originally applied for a $2,500,000 State Revolving Fund Loan and since the project is over the estimated budget, the funding agency (NCDEQ/Division of Water Infrastucture) has indicated that the City's loan could be increased to $2,750,000 without going through the application process again. 'rhe City's approved budget included $458,400 in local funds to be used for the project. The additional $250,000 in loan and eliminating the clarifier modification would allow the project to move forward. The State Revolving Fund Loan is a 0% interest for 20 years. The $2,750,000 loan would have an annual payment of $137,500. Debt Service is expected to begin fiscal year 2020-2021. After discussion, motion by Council Member Maness and second by Council Member Tumage to adopt a resolution tentatively awarding a contract to Laughlin -Sutton Construction in the amount of $2,649,000 for all work except item A.2 in the base bid for the Black River Wastewater Treatment Plant Aeration System Replacement Project, contingent upon the review and concurrence of the Division of Water Infrastucture's approval to increase the loan from $2,500,000 to $2,750,000. Motion unanimously approved. A copy of the Resolution (R2019-21) is incorporated into these nfinutes as Attachment 910. Consideration of Tart Park Bids The City was awarded a PARTF Grant and State Grant Aid to assist with funding for the Tait Park renovation. Once construction plans were completed the project went out for bid with a due date of April 16, 2019. After receiving no bids, the project was up for rebid with a due date of May 16, 2019. Again receiving no bids the project was bided out a thiel time in which three bids were received on June 20, 2019. Bids received were from M&E Contracting, Bridgepoint Civil and Stewart Group. After tabulations, Bridgepoint Civil was the lowest bid at $2,497,400 leaving the City with the additional expense of $2.5 million. City Manager Neuschafer shared that the recommendation of Parks and Recreation Director McNeill, and himself, is to reject all bids and see how the project can be broken down into phases for rebid and to do some work in house. The City may also need to look at reducing the scope of the project with the current bidding environment. After discussion, the staff was asked to study the issue and bring back a recommendation to the Council. Council Member Turnage further requested that McNeill provide a breakdown by season of participation rates over time to show that the numbers support the investment. Motion by Council Member Turnage and second by Council Member McNeill that due to increased cost and upon City Manager Neuschafer and Recreation Director McNeill's recommendation, for the city to reject all bids and for the project to be broken into smaller phases for rebid, removing non-grant required items and items which can be constructed by City staff, and that staff present recommended action at the next Council meeting. Motion unanimously approved. Rezoning Request RZ-04-19; C-3 to I-10, Jason Carpenter Rentals LLC, 17 J and J Lane, PIN# 1526-04-7459.0000 Request to rezone one parcel totaling 1.56+/- acres located at 17 J and J Lane. The property is zoned C-3: Highway Commercial District and is proposed to be rezoned to I-10: Restricted Industrial District. The Planning Board met on July 23, 2019 to review the request and ask for comments from the public. The planning board voted unanimously to approve. Motion by Council Member Tait and second by Council Member Turnage to approve rezoning request RZ-04-19 to rezone one parcel totaling 1.56+/- acres, located at 17 J and J Lane from C-3: Highway Commercial District to I-10: Restricted Industrial District. Motion unanimously approved. Acceptance of Drinking Water State Revolving Funds for the 14 inch water line abandonment and upsizing the water line on East Wake St. The City applied for State Revolving Funds from the State Water Infrastructure Authority for the purpose of funding the replacement of aged water distribution infrastructure in two areas within the City (Dunn-Erwin Road area and E. Wake Street). The City has been notified that the project is eligible to receive funding based on the application that was submitted. Public Utilities Director Adams shared that the 14-inch water line was abandoned from the Dunn Water Plant to the Black River Bridge on Dunn-Erwin Rd several years ago. However, the remaining section of 14-inch water line pipe is still active. The proposed project would begin near the intersection of Bruce Drive to just south of the intersection of S. Wayne Avenue and W. Cumberland Street, Plans are to abandon the 14-inch line and install 6-inch and 8-inch pipe in order to serve the affected areas. The new lines will be installed within the City's right of way. The second pant of the project abandons an existing 2-inch water line along E. Wake from Carolina Drive to E. Johnson St. and replaces with a 6-inch water line for the purpose of meeting current design standards and providing fire flow. This would also include installing fire hydrants on the new water line. The eligible loan amount is $875,750 with a 20-year term and maximum interest rate of 1.89%. Debt service is predicted to begin in fiscal year 2021-2022. The debt service is estimated to be approximately $61,000/year. Motion by Council Member Bradham and second by Council Member McNeill to accept the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Loan in the amount of $875,750 and proceed in accordance with the schedule that is outlined in the Division of Water Infrastructure's Letter of Intent to Fund, with all being contingent upon the review and concurrence of the Local Govermient Commission. Motion unanimously approved. Consider Change of October Regular Schedule Council Meeting Due to the City election being held on October 8, 2019, the Council considered changing the October regular schedule meeting from October 8, 2019 to October 15, 2019. Motion by Council Member Turnage and second by Council Member McNeill to reschedule the October 8, 2019 Regular City Council meeting date to Tuesday, October 15, 2019. Motion unanimously approved. Leaf Vacuum Truck After researching different options for leaf collection equipment, the City Manager, Public Works Director and Finance Director recommended the City diversify in size of equipment. The City currently has a 2005 Freightliner leaf vacuum (all -in -one) truck, which has been repaired several times, and is approaching the end of its service life. It is staff's recommendation to purchase a smaller pull behind unit and defer purchase of a new all -in -one tuck. Having multiple pieces of equipment will allow collection operations in different areas at the same time, increasing service to the residents according to City Manager Neuschafer. After this purchase, the City will have the option to dispatch either piece of equipment, depending on the situation. If approved, the Finance Director will seek quotes for the financing and return that selection for Council at the September Meeting. The equipment is in stock and the total cost will not exceed $90,000. After discussion, motion by Council Member Maness and second by Council Member McNeill to authorize the Finance Director to solicit bids on financing up to $90,000 for the purchase of a pull behind leaf collection machine and collection box to fit an existing fleet vehicle. Motion unanimously approved. Award CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization Project Legal Service Contract City Manager Neuschafer presented request to award the CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization Project Legal Service contract to Pope Law Group, PA in the amount of $650 title search per house and a $250 hourly rate for other legal services with execution subject to NC Department of Commerce approval. The City advertised for legal services proposals on May 20, 2019 with proposals due on June 3, 2019. Since only one proposal was received, the re - advertisement for proposals ran on June 13, 2019 with proposals due by July 5, 2019. No additional proposals were received so the proposal fiom Pope Law Group was opened, reviewed and ranked. Motion by Council Member Maness and second by Council Member Turnage to award the CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization Project Legal Service contract to Pope Law Group, PA in the amount of $650 title search per house and a $250 hourly rate for other legal services with execution subject to NC Department of Commerce approval. Motion unanimously approved. Authorization of Additional Paving City Manager Neuschafer requested authorization for additional paving due to the doe pavement conditions on the Cascade Circle and Covington Lane. The City has done some patching on these streets two years ago but not in the cul- de-sac areas. The conditions of the roadbed require the removal of the existing base material and placement of new stone prior to the installation of 2 inches of new asphalt. Testing of the cul-de-sacs show existing pavement as thin as I inch. The informal bids received thus far show that the total work will be less than $60,000 and this can be paid out of the current fiscal year budget for street resurfacing. No other projects on the priority list will fit into the budget. After discussion, motion by Council Member Tart and second by Mayor Pro Tem McLean to authorize City Manager Neuschafer to award bids to reconstruct the Cul-de-sac areas of both Cascade Circle and Covington Lane and to use the City Public Works Department as much as possible to maximize cost savings for the paving project. Motion unanimously approved. Sewer Betterment Jonesboro Road (I-95 Project) Public Utilities Director Adams and Engineer Goliber presented recommendation for the City to agree to a sewer line upgrade along Jonesboro Road from Cooper Sheet to Lane Road during the time that the NC Department of Transportation (NC DOT) constructs a new private pump station at Sadler's Travel Plaza and extends a force main along Jonesboro Road as part of the I-95 widening project. The construction of a sewer pump station and force main, which will connect to the City's existing sewer system near Cooper Sheet and Jonesboro Road, will replace an existing private sewer pump station and force main (Sadler Travel Plaza) that is in conflict with the 1-95 roadway improvements. Two design options have been presented by NC DOT's design engineer. Option #1: NC DOT will pay for the utility project as a result of widening I-95 at no cost to the City. Option #2: Betterment to the City as proposed by NC DOT. As the City plans for future growth along the Jonesboro/I95 Corridor, the opportunity to upgrade a portion of the force main to gravity (approximately 2,220 linear feet) from Cooper Street to Lane Road would be most economical during NC DOT's project. Once the utility project is complete, the City would own the sewer lines that are constructed in the public right of way along Jonesboro Road. The total cost to the City is estimated at $116,000. The City would be expected to pay the difference between the betterment design/construction cost and NC DOT's minimum design/construction cost for the utility project. If the City declined the betterment option, a future gravity project along this same route is expected to cost in excess of $500,000. The anticipated let date for this phase of the NC DOT project is July 2020. Much discussion followed concerning the possibility that actual cost could be significantly more than the estimated cost, due to bid issues such as the City is currently experiencing. After discussion, motion by Council Member Maness and second by Council Member Tart to move forward with option #2 and authorize City Manager Neuschafer to direct NC Department of Transportation's design engineer to move forward with a design that includes a betterment to the City's sewer system along Jonesboro Road and furthermore direct the City Manager to budget for the project in fiscal year 2020-2021. Motion unanimously approved. Consideration of Environmental Enhancement Grant Proposal Resolution City Manager Neuschafer requested the Council consider a Letter of Intent be sent to apply for an Environmental Enhancement Grant through the North Carolina Attorney General's Office. The grant would be used to establish a nature park to include Hannah's Pond and the Stoney Run corridor connecting Highway 301 to Interstate 95. Wetland Solutions LLC is prepared to work with the City and lead on design, communication with property owners and formulation of the application. To proceed with application for the grant, a Letter of Intent is needed from the City by August 19, 2019. The deadline for Grant Proposals is September 24, 2019. Neuschafer felt that a work session would need to be scheduled so that Wetland Solutions LLC could expand on the scope of work planned. After discussion, motion by Mayor Pro Tem McLean and second by Council Member Tait to approve a Letter of Intent to apply for an Environmental Enhancement Grant for the purpose of a nature park in the City of Dunn. Motion unanimously approved. Alley Assessment by the City Manager and Staff as discussed at the Planning Retreat Council Member Turnage requested that the staff perform an alley assessment of all alleys in the City of Dunn. After discussion, motion by Council Member Turnage and second by Council Member Maness for the City Manager and staff to conduct an assessment of all commercial and residential alleys in the City of Dunn by December 31, 2019 for the purpose to access the current status: to determine infrastructure that city is responsible for; determine if the alley is being used for access and if some alleys or portions should be closed and turned over to the property owners to assume maintenance; and to determine City's maintenance requirements for those to remain open. Motion unanimously approved.

The assessment will also include an impact analysis and a recommendation for prioritizing the repair of the identified defects. BACKGROUND: Following Hurricane Florence, the metered average monthly flow of Dunn's wastewater nearly doubled. In the past, when there were heavy rainfall events, the collection system flows would spike but would quickly recover and return to normal conditions after a few days. After Hurricane Florence, the wastewater plant has not seen the flows return to "normal". Even with drier conditions during the month of May and June 2019, the average dry weather flows have increased from 1.5 MGD to 2.0 MGD. Average flows increased from 1.8 MGD to 3.0 MGD and maximum flows increased from 2.75 MGD to 5.0 MGD. BUDGET IMPACT: The City was awarded $142,500 with no local match required. RECOMMENDATION/ACTION REQUESTED: Staff recommends that Council accept the Golden LEAF Grant in the amount of $142,500 and make the applicable assurances contained therein and authorize City Manager Neuschafer to enter into a contract with WithersRavenel to assist the City with completing the Inflow and Infiltration Assessment.

Conflict of interest: In connection with the project funded by Golden LEAF, no employee, officer, director, volunteer, or agent of the Grantee shall engage in any activity that involves a conflict of interest or that would appear to a reasonable person to involve a conflict of interest. Without limiting the foregoing principle, except as described below, in connection with implementation of the project funded by Golden LEAF, Grantee shall not procure goods or services from any Interested Person or from any individual or entity with which any Interested Person has a financial interest or from any family member of an Interested Person, nor shall Grantee use Golden LEAF grant funds to provide goods, services, or compensation (other than customary and reasonable wages and benefits) to any Interested Person or to any family member of an Interested Person. "Interested Person" includes officers and directors of the Grantee, and employees of the Grantee with authority to procure goods or services for the Grantee related to the project funded by Golden LEAF. For purposes of this section, family members shall include: (1) spouse, (2) ancestor, (3) brother, (4) half-brother, (5) sister, (6) half-sister, (7) child (whether by birth or by adoption), (8) grandchild, (9) great grandchild, or (10) spouse of brother, half- brother, sister, half-sister, child, grandchild, or great grandchild. An Interested Person has a financial interest if the Interested Person has, directly or indirectly, through business, investment, or family: a) an ownership or investment interest in any entity with which the Grantee has a transaction or arrangement; b) a compensation arrangement with the Grantee or with any entity or individual with which the Grantee has a transaction or arrangement; or c) a potential ownership or investment interest in, or compensation arrangement with, any entity or individual with which the Grantee is negotiating a transaction or arrangement. Compensation includes direct and indirect remuneration as well as gifts or favors that are not insubstantial. An Interested Person must inform the Grantee of his or her financial interest upon becoming aware that the Grantee is considering procuring goods or services from any individual or entity with which any Interested Person has a financial interest. The foregoing notwithstanding, if after exercising due diligence, the governing board or committee of the Grantee determines that the Grantee is not reasonably able to secure a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from an individual or entity with which an Interested Person does not have a financial interest, the governing board or committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the Grantee's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. In conformity with the above determination the Grantee shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement and shall keep written records of the meeting at which that decision was made. The Grantee shall inform all Interested Persons of the requirements set forth in this section. If the requirements set forth in this section conflict with any statute or regulation applicable to the Grantee, the statute or regulation shall control. If the Grantee has a conflict of interest or similar policy that provides more stringent restrictions and protections than those in this section, the Grantee may comply with its policy rather than the policy contained herein. This section does not alter the requirement that Grantee may not use the funds from this grant in any way that would result in or give rise to private inurement or impermissible private benefit It. Procurement: All goods or services acquired using Golden LEAF grant funds must be reasonably necessary to implement the project funded. All procurement transactions involving the use of Golden LEAF grant funds will be conducted to provide, to the extent possible and reasonable, free and open competition among suppliers. The Grantee should use reasonable efforts to procure goods and services from local businesses, small businesses, minority-owned firms, and women's business enterprises. The Grantee will seek competitive offers where possible and reasonable to obtain the best possible quality at the best possible price. Some form of cost or price analysis shall be made and documented in connection with every individual procurement in excess of $1,000.00. Price analysis may be accomplished in various ways, including the comparison of price quotations or market prices, including discounts. For any single procurement of $100,000.00 or more, Grantee will use a competitive bid process that is designed to attract a reasonable number of responsive bidders. The requirements of the bid process may vary depending on the value of the procurement. When evaluating bids received, the Grantee is not required to take the lowest price if other factors are reasonably important to the Grantee; however, the bases for evaluation and selection should be listed in the procurement documents and there should be an objective method for the decision made by the Grantee. The decision should be documented in writing. If the Grantee is subject to statutory or regulatory procurement requirements, those requirements supersede this section. The Grantee may request that the President of Golden LEAF approve the Grantee's use of a procurement policy that varies from the requirements of this section. 12. Project and budget modification: The Grantee will immediately notify Golden LEAF of anything that may materially affect the Grantee's ability to perform the project funded. If the Grantee proposes to modify the budget, the objectives, or any other feature of the project funded, the Grantee shall not encumber or expend any funds from this grant for such purposes unless and until Golden LEAF has approved such proposed modifications in writing. Moreover, no further payments shall be made to the Grantee in connection with the project funded unless and until Golden LEAF has approved such proposed modifications in writing. 13. Use of grant funds/rescission and termination of grants: The Grantee accepts and will retain full control of the disposition of funds awarded to the Grantee by Golden LEAF under this grant and accepts and will retain full responsibility for compliance with the terms and conditions of the grant. Grant funds shall be utilized exclusively for the purposes set forth above. If the Grantee breaches any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Grantee Acknowledgment and Agreement, uses grant funds for purposes other than those set out above, or any of the representations and warranties made by the Grantee are untrue as to a material fact, the Grantee agrees to repay to Golden LEAF the full amount of this grant. Any condition, purpose, term or provision in Golden LEAF's resolution approving funding or in this Agreement shall take precedence over any conflicting provision in the Grantee's application. Grantee shall not use grant funds for any purpose not included in the Grantee's application for funding unless specifically approved by Golden LEAF. If there is a conflict between the purpose of the grant and use of grant funds described in this Grantee Acknowledgment and Agreement and the Grantee's application for funding, this Grantee Acknowledgment and Agreement will control. 14. The Grantee acknowledges receipt of the following policy regarding termination and rescission of grants, which is intended to supplement but not replace or limit the rights and remedies of Golden LEAF set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. The Grantee acknowledges that Golden LEAF may, from time to time, amend its policy regarding termination and rescission of grants, and the Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee will be subject to the policy as amended. Policy Regarding Rescission and Termination of Grants. Rescission of a grant revokes the grant award. When funds have been disbursed to a Grantee by Golden LEAF and a grant is rescinded, the Grantee may be liable for repayment to Golden LEAF for an amount up to the total of grant funds received by the Grantee, in addition to any other remedy available to Golden LEAF. Termination of a grant ends the grant on a going - forward basis, and the Grantee is responsible for repayment to Golden LEAF of only that portion of the grant funds that has been disbursed but not expended by the Grantee in accordance with the terms of the grant. A grant may be rescinded or terminated at any time in the discretion of Golden LEAF for the Grantee's failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or if any of the Grantee's representations and warranties in this Agreement are or become untrue as to a material fact. Reasons for rescission or termination of a grant include but are not limited to the following: a. The Grantee has not signed and delivered to Golden LEAF the Grantee Acknowledgment and Agreement within forty-five (45) days of the Award Date set out in Section 5, above. b. The Grantee has failed to complete the project within the grant term established by this Agreement or any extensions thereof. C. The Grantee's tax-exempt status has been modified or revoked. d. The Grantee is unable, or has failed or refused, to comply with a material term or condition of the grant. e. The Grantee has experienced a change in circumstances that is likely to have a material adverse effect upon the Grantee's ability to accomplish fully the purposes of the grant (e.g., loss of collateral funding, loss of key personnel, etc.). f. The Grantee has failed or refused to submit a report, statement, accounting or return required by this Agreement or applicable law. g. The Grantee has materially modified its budget for the project, and such material modification has not been approved by Golden LEAF. h. The Grantee commits a material violation of the Internal Revenue Code or uses grant funds for some purpose not permitted by the Internal Revenue Code or for some purpose not contemplated by the grant. i. The Grantee breaches any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Grantee Acknowledgment and Agreement. j. The Grantee requests that the grant be rescinded or terminated. It is anticipated that a grant will be rescinded in situations in which no grant funds have been disbursed. Where grant funds have been disbursed, it is anticipated that a grant will be rescinded in the case of more serious violations (including, without limitation, use of grant funds for some purpose not contemplated by the grant or in violation of the Internal Revenue Code, or upon other affirmative misconduct of the Grantee), and that termination of a grant will occur in the case of the less serious instances of non-compliance or where the circumstance giving rise to termination is not the result of misconduct of the Grantee. If the Board of Directors of Golden LEAF determines that a grant should be rescinded or terminated, Golden LEAF will notify the Grantee of that decision. Golden LEAF may choose to notify the Grantee that the grant is subject to rescission or termination unless the Grantee remedies the noncompliance, and Golden LEAF may establish deadlines or other limitations on the Grantee's opportunity to remedy the noncompliance. If Golden LEAF allows the Grantee the opportunity to correct the noncompliance, no further grant fiords shall be advanced until the noncompliance is remedied. 15. Release of Funds: Unless otherwise agreed by Golden LEAF, up to twenty percent (20%) of funds may be released in advance after all conditions on the release of funds are satisfied. Funds may be released in additional advances of up to twenty percent (20%) of the grant amount upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Golden LEAF that funds previously released have been properly expended and accounted for. Funds may also be released on a reimbursement basis, in which case payments may be made in an amount equal to or up to eighty percent (80%) of the grant amount upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Golden LEAF that funds have been properly expended and accounted for. Unless otherwise approved by the President of Golden LEAF, a sum equal to twenty percent (20%) of the total amount of the grant will be retained by Golden LEAF until the Grantee completes its obligations under this grant, including submission of a satisfactory final report on the project funded. This final twenty percent (20%) retained by Golden LEAF shall be paid to the Grantee on a reimbursement basis. If the grant is conditional or contingent, all conditions and contingencies must be met before any payment will be made. Each request for payment shall be in writing using the approved Golden LEAF form and shall certify that the Grantee has performed in accordance with the terms and provisions of its Grantee Acknowledgment and Agreement, and that such Grantee is entitled under the terms of such Agreement to receive the amount so requested. Each request should be made to President, The Golden LEAF Foundation, 301 N. Winstead Avenue, Rocky Mount, NC 27804. Payment should not be requested until the Grantee has need for actual expenditures of the funds. The Grantee should request payment at least thirty (30) days prior to its desired payment date. 16. Reporting: The Grantee agrees to submit a progress report to Golden LEAF biannually, to be received by Golden LEAF six months from the date of award and every six months thereafter unless some other schedule is approved by Golden LEAF. The Grantee agrees to submit a final Progress Report for receipt by Golden LEAF within sixty (60) days after the completion of all obligations for the project funded or the end date, whichever comes first. The Grantee may be required to report results and accomplishments to Golden LEAF for a period beyond the grant term that is reasonably necessary to evaluate the outcomes of the grant. Report forms may be found on Golden LEAF's website, www.goldenleafor . The Grantee will furnish additional or further reports if requested by Golden LEAF on forms prescribed by Golden LEAF. 17. Records: The Grantee agrees to maintain full, accurate and verifiable financial records, supporting documents, and all other pertinent data for the project funded in such a manner so as to identify and document clearly the activities and outcomes of the project funded and the expenditure of Golden LEAF grant funds. Financial records regarding Golden LEAF's grant shall maintained in such a way that they can be reported separately from monetary contributions, or other revenue sources of the Grantee. The Grantee agrees to retain all financial and programmatic records, supporting documents, and all other pertinent records related to the project funded for a period of five (5) years from the end of the grant term. In the event such records are audited, all project records shall be retained beyond such five-year period until all audit findings have been resolved. The Grantee shall provide to Golden LEAF copies of all financial and other records requested by Golden LEAF and shall make available to Golden LEAF, or Golden LEAF's designated representative, all of the Grantee's records that relate to the grant, and shall allow Golden LEAF or Golden LEAF's representative to audit, examine and copy any data, documents, proceedings, records and notes of activity relating to the grant. Access to these records shall be allowed upon request at any time during normal business hours and as often as Golden LEAF or its representative may deem necessary. The Grantee may be subject to audit by the State Auditor. 18. This Section 18 is applicable if the following blank is marked: Staff Initials & date Intellectual property/new developments: In consideration of its receipt of funds granted by Golden LEAF, the Grantee agrees that during the course of the project funded by the grant, the Grantee, and any recipient of grant funds, will promptly disclose to Golden LEAF any improvements, inventions, developments, discoveries, innovations, systems, techniques, ideas, processes, programs, and other things, whether patentable or unpatentable, that result from any work performed by or for the Grantee in connection with the project funded, or by individuals whose work is funded by the grant (the "New Developments"). If the Grantee provides to Golden LEAF a copy of any Invention Disclosure Reports it receives from Grantee employees that report making inventions under this Agreement, then the Grantee will be deemed to have satisfied the disclosure requirement in the preceding sentence. The Grantee agrees that it, and any recipient of grant funds, shall take all reasonably appropriate actions to assure that the New Developments shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Grantee. In the event that the interests of the public would be served by commercialization of the New Developments, the Grantee agrees to use its best reasonable efforts to pursue the commercialization of any such New Developments in a manner that will serve the interests of the public, including but not limited to the transfer, assignment or licensing of such New Developments; provided, however, that the Grantee, and any recipient of grant funds, shall not transfer, assign or license such New Developments in part or in whole without first having obtained the written consent of Golden LEAF. Any revenue generated as a result of transferring, assigning, or licensing New Developments will be managed by the Grantee in accordance with its published patent, copyright and technology transfer procedures, if any, and in the absence of such procedures such revenue will be managed by the Grantee in accordance with procedures approved by Golden LEAF. Such procedures typically will prioritize the distribution of revenues to ensure that the Grantee first honors its obligation to its inventors and then to cover its own out-of-pocket expenses as necessary to protect its intellectual property. The Grantee and Golden LEAF further agree that should there be any revenue generated greater than that necessary to meet the obligations of the preceding paragraph ("Net Revenue"), the Net Revenue shall be managed by the Grantee as follows: a) 15% of the Net Revenue will be retained by the Grantee as a fee for the management and distribution of funds as required under this Agreement. b) 30% of the remaining Net Revenue will be paid to Golden LEAF. C) 70% of the remaining Net Revenue will be retained by the Grantee and used in accordance with the procedures referenced in the preceding paragraph above. The Grantee's obligations pursuant to this Section will continue beyond the expiration of the funding period 19. Independent entity: The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee is an entity independent from Golden LEAF, is not an agent of Golden LEAF, and is not authorized to bind Golden LEAF to any agreement of payment for goods or services. The Grantee is responsible for payment of all its expenses, including rent, office expenses and all forms of compensation to employees. It shall provide workers compensation insurance to the extent required for its operations and shall accept full responsibility for payments of unemployment compensation, social security, income taxes and any other charges, taxes or payroll deductions required by law in connection with its operations, for itself and its employees. All expenses incurred by the Grantee are the sole responsibility of the Grantee, and Golden LEAF shall not be liable for the payment of any obligations incurred in the performance of the project funded. 20. Non-discrimination: The Grantee shall not discriminate by reason of age, race, ethnicity, religion, color, sex, national origin, or handicap related to the activities of a project funded by Golden LEAF. 21. Publicity: All publicity and printed materials regarding projects or activities supported in whole or in part by this grant should contain the following language: "This project received support from The Golden LEAF Foundation." The Golden LEAF logo is to be displayed in all of the Grantee's publicity and printed materials relating to this grant.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Grantee has executed this Agreement as of the date below: Name of Grantee Organization (print): Signature: Name of Person Signing (print): Title of Person Signing (print): Date: DUNN D DUNN LINN All•AmaricaCity ;t,�d„,,, City 1 1 City Council agenda Fortes 1 ®_ eek Date:September ,, 2 I989'�2013 9 I999*26I3 SUBJECT TITLE: Consider Professional Services Agreement for State Revolving Fund Waterline Rehabilitation Project-Dunn/Erwin Road 14 Inch Water Line Abandonment and East Wake Street Water Line Improvements Presenter: Utilities Director Adams Department: Public Utilities Attachment: X Yes No Description: Request for Qualifications, Statement of Qualifications, & Professional Services Proposal Public Hearino Advertisement Date: PURPOSE: To consider a professional services proposal from WithersRavenel for engineering tasks as they relate to the State Revolving Funded project which encompasses the 14 inch water line abandonment along Dunn -Erwin Road and the upsizing of a waterline on E, Wake Street. BACKGROUND: The 14 -inch water line along Dunn -Erwin Rd, was originally installed in 1930's and was the main transmission line into Dunn before the 16 -inch and 24 -inch water lines were constructed. Several years ago the 14 -inch water line was abandoned from the Dunn Water Plant to the Black River Bridge on Dunn -Erwin Rd. However, the remaining section of 14" water line pipe is still active. The proposed project would begin near the intersection of Bruce Drive to just south of the intersection of S. Wayne Avenue and W, Cumberland Street. To mitigate the hazards associated with the age of the infrastructure and current alignment, the 14 -inch line would be abandoned and 6 -inch and 8 -inch pipe will be installed in order to serve the affected areas. The new lines will be installed within the City's right of way and therefore ongoing maintenance and repairs will be possible. The second part of the project abandons an existing 2 -inch water line along E. Wake from Carolina Drive to E. Johnson St. and replaces with a 6 -inch water line for the purpose of meeting current design standards and providing fire flow. This would also include installing fire hydrants on the new water line. At the August 13, 2019, Council Meeting, Council approved to move forward with a State Revolving Fund Loan for the purpose of abandoning the 14 inch water line and the upsizing of a 2 inch line on E. Wake Street. A Request for Qualifications for Professional Services was published in the Dunn Daily Record on the following date(s): July 29, 2019. BUDGET IMPACT: Engineering expenses will be incurred in fiscal years 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 and are reimbursable through the State Revolving Fund loan.

WithersRavenel // Water Distribution Rehabilitation Project - DWSRF // City of Dunn E // Recent Projects Water & Sewer Improvements City of Sonford/Lee County, NC Hawkins Avenue Water Main Extension The Hawkins Avenue water line extension project consists of approximately 4.5 miles of 16 -inch waterline in a dense residential, commercial, and industrial corridor from downtown Weatherspoon Street to Deep River Road along Hawkins Avenue/US 15-501 before connecting to the Colon Road elevated water tank. The purpose of this project is to parallel Client Contact Paul Weeks, PE Engineer, City of Sanford (919) 777-1119 paul.weeks@sanfordnc.net Funding Source f 'focal Project Relevance ® Design Phase Services h Surveying ® Permitting existing water mains with the larger main to increase hydraulic capacity to an industrial site and provide additional capacity for the City to serve their interconnection with the Chatham County water system. Withers Ravenel completed design surveys for a 6 -mile alignment for a proposed waterline along Hawkins Avenue. Property boundaries were surveyed along the project alignment for future easement acquisitions. This project involved several unique design challenges to accommodate various dynamic objectives within the City of Sanford. For example, a section of the pipeline in the middle of the alignment had an accelerated schedule as a result of an NCDOT project that was about to begin construction when the design for this project was starting. Additionally, for this section in particular, multiple existing pipelines were combined to result in a larger diameter pipe through this area based on hydraulic modeling. Central Carolina Enterprise Park Sewer Improvements This project consists of approximately 8,500 LF of 8 -inch and 12 -inch gravity sewer that connected to an existing 12 -inch gravity sewer collection system near the intersection of US 1 North. These improvements traveled along three tributaries of the Gum Fork Creek to Clyde Rhyne Drive with guaranteed bores under the NCDOT right-of-way with 16 -inch jack and bores. This project included wetland delineations, NCDOT encroachment coordination and regulatory permitting for gravity sewer systems, erosion control and USACE. Clyde Rhyne Drive Industrial Park Water Main Extension This project consists of 8,200 LF of 16 -inch water inside the NCDOT right-of-way of Clyde Rhyne Drive, with two NCDOT crossings under Clyde Rhyne Drive, and Womack Road with 30 -inch jack and bores. The surveying for this project was performed by unmanned aircraft system (UAS) and required close coordination with NCDOT for the installation of the water line inside the existing right-of-way along with regulatory permitting for water systems, erosion control and USACE. WithersRavenel // Water Distribution Rehabiliti ion Project DWSRF // City of Dunn E // Recent Projects Water Main Replacement (2M) Town of Cary, NC In downtown Cary, the majority of the original water system consists of asbestos cement (AC) mains, some of which are more than 50 years old. Due to the age of the pipes and the potential health risks posed by AC, the Town desired to replace approximately 14,100 LF of AC pipe with ductile iron pipe at 11 sites. The existing 4, 6, and 8 -inch pipes will he replaced with 6,8 and 12 -inch pipes to preserve or increase capacity as needed. Led by Project Manager Rick Rodin, WithersRavenel is providing field surveying, construction plans and specifications, traffic control plans, NCDOT and NCDEQ permitting, bidding services, and construction administration/observation services for the project. Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) played a significant role in the project because AC pipe is non-conductive and must be located using ground penetrating radar (GPR).

Bradham City Manager Steven Neuschafer The City of Dunn in Harnett County wishes to express our intent to apply for a 2019 Environmental Enhancement Grant. The project will be a shared effort, between the City of Dunn, Campbell University and Wetland Solutions LLC, to establish a nature park within Dunn using funds provided by category 3 - construction, remediation or restoration work in the amount of $500,000. The proposed target area is approximately 192 acres spread across about 20 parcels along the Stony Run corridor, between Highway 301 and Interstate 95 to include the Hannah's Lake area within the Cape Fear River Basin. The proposed park is intended to be designed as a mixture of native natural features, open water and trail based recreational opportunities with educational signage. This project will utilize the educational resources and interests of Campbell University to establish a highly visible and publicly accessible park that benefits the water quality and storm water management concerns of the City of Dunn. Long term ownership of the park will likely be with a newly created non-profit, The park will be developed in phases with the first being the acquisition of the necessary parcels and addressing the immediate engineering and environmental concerns of the Hannah's Lake dam removal. The second phase will be the development of a restoration plan and the establishment of a mitigation bank. The third and final phase will be putting that restoration plan into action and utilizing the bank for additional funding. Other grants will be pursued to fund the second and third phases, which may include the Clean Water Trust Fund and the EPA 319 grants. We feel this will be a great opportunity to provide Dunn area residents and visitors with quality outdoor recreation in an educational wetland environment.

Roberts, Finance Dire Q -yam y 1 ` Subject: Liens and Accounts Receivables Date: September 10, 2019 Mayor Oscar N. Han -is Mayor Pro Tem Frank McLean Council Members Buddy Maness Dr, Gwen McNeill Billy Tail Chuck Tonnage Dr. David L. Bradham City Manager Steven NCaSehater • As reported last month we continue to work on collections for accounts receivable that include weedy lots, demolition of houses, driveways, curb and gutter work, water and sewer line installations and special assessments. • In August we reported $374,776 owed in assessments of all types. The total assessments currently due are $356,100. Our outstanding balances breakdown as follows: Weedy Lots/Demolitions $261,097; General Fund Assessments $124,113; Water and Sewer Assessments $15,888. • Since last month we have collected a total of $22,812. The breakdown of these payments are: $1,379 in General Fund assessments, $2,203 in Water Fund Assessments, and $19,230 in Weedy Lots/Demolitions. • We are maintaining payments on our current billings and have reduced our backlog by over 6%. • We have been informed by our attorneys the collection of fees over 10 years old is not good practice and we will likely not be able to recover those funds. The Attorney's office was to file foreclosure documents on one property last week and are to begin another this week. • The City has identified eight new offenders owing more than $2,000 each and totaling $39,250. We have sent them a notice of pending lien on their property. This lien will happen at 30 days from the date of the letter, August 26, 2019. • We currently have liens placed on 74 properties in the amount of $136,422, totaling 38.3% of the total assessments due. These next eight will bring the total to $175,672 or 49.3% of the total amount due the City. • Our billing process for assessments other than Weedy Lots/Demolitions begins with notifications in writing and then following up with a notice of pending lien. With Weedy Lots/Demolitions, payment is then expected within 30 days and land owners are notified in writing. We do not offer a payment plan but partial payments are accepted. Partial payments however, does not stop the notice of pending lien on the property. • We are continuing to work through our files to complete our review and place more liens on the newest most expensive properties where we have amounts due.
