Staff recommends approval of a budget adjustment in the amount of $300,000.00 to move funds to the Water
Meters account for the purchase of smart water meters for the Utilities Department.

approximately 3,900 of the more than 50,000 water meters we have in the City's distribution system. The
purchase of additional water meters will be beneficial to the overall water meter replacement strategy.

A budget adjustment in the amount of $300,000.00 is requested to allow for the purchase of additional smart
water meters in 2025. Funds are available in the Water Tank Improvements account within the Water & Sewer
fund.

Funds will be moved from the Water Tank Improvements account to the Water Meters account to fund the
additional meter purchases in 2025.
