James X. Kelly PE
Public Works Director
City of Arlington
Mr. Kelly
Kubota Membrane USA (KMU) is pleased to provide this updated proposal for programming services in
support of the Arlington WA programming standards upgrade project per your request and the discussion
we had with the City of Arlington technical staff.
Scope of Work
We understand our scope to include rewriting the PLC code for the MBR portion of the facility according
to the latest Kubota standards using the Wonderware System Platform version of the HMI graphics. As
part of this programming effort, we will also incorporate the new programming required for the permeate
basin process changes under construction at present.
In our discussion with the City, we understand that the city will purchase and upgrade their existing
Wonderware software from InTouch to System platform, and that this new software will be installed by the
City on new servers provided by the city. We will then import our standard graphics into this new galaxy
to control the equipment connected to the MBR PLC Control panel.
As an additive option, we can install the system platform software and set up the galaxy architecture and
add the other processes controlled by other plant PLCs to the galaxy but this price is not included in the
current proposal.
In order to upgrade the MBR PLC code and related graphics an upgrade of the existing PLC Processor to a
new Allen Bradley 1756-L82 Processor will be required. The existing PLC processor is end -of-life and does
not support some of the modern functions required in the Kubota standard. This new processor will fit into
the existing PLC IO rack and has been verified to be compatible with the existing communication
equipment.
We will develop all programming on Control Engineers development machines and software, and run a full
simulation to test the complete program operation. Once complete we will conduct a software factory
acceptance test that can be witnessed (either in person or remotely) by the City of Arlington staff. Once
the program is completely tested and verified, we will travel to the site to install the new PLC processor
and import the graphical objects. We will then verify proper plant operation and provide operator training.
Since there will be substantial coordination required between Kubota, Control Engineers and city
programmer, we have allocated ten days on site plus two travel days for this effort.
New Kubota Standard Program
CONTROLS UPGRADE FOR THE CITY OF ARLINGTON, WASHINGTON

City of Arlington
WRF Membrane Replacement, Optimization, and Services During Construction
Scope of Work Amendment No. 3
05/06/2024
Project Background
BHC Consultants, LLC (BHC) had contracted with the City of Arlington (City) to evaluate
optimization of the existing membrane bioreactor (MBR) process at the Water Reclamation
Facility (WRF). The primary focus of this optimization effort was to evaluate membrane scour
air supply and control and evaluate operational modifications to enhance biological phosphorus
removal. Through this effort, it became apparent that the MBR blowers were not delivering the
amount of air they should, despite the blowers having been recently rehabilitated and having
shown adequate performance during original factory testing. It also became apparent that the
current MBR control program had limitations and suboptimal procedures that were impacting
effectiveness of the MBR process. As a result of these findings, the City decided it is necessary
to install a fourth MBR blower and replace the existing MBR control program with a newer
program offered by Kubota that provides greater flexibility and efficiency and resolves many
shortcomings of the current program. The City asked BHC to assist with selection, sizing, and
specifying a new MBR blower, which the City would purchase and have installed, and also
provide as-needed assistance with implementation of the new MBR control programming. This
additional scope of work was amended to the current contract for WRF Membrane
Replacement, Optimization, and Services During Construction. As BHC worked with the City to
select and size a new MBR blower, the City decided to include a second new MBR blower to
provide the desired level of redundancy and include modifications to the existing controls to
facilitate operation of the new MBR blowers under all operating conditions, such that the existing
positive displacement (PD) blowers that remain will not be required to operate. Due to the
increased scope and complexity of the improvements, the City has asked BHC to prepare
additional design documents that were not included in the scope of the prior amendment.
Amended Scope of Work
BHC proposes changes to the Scope of Work tasks and additional tasks as described below.
1. Project Management and Quality Control
As indicated in the prior amendment, the budget for this task was expected to be depleted in
the second quarter of 2024. Therefore, the scope added through this second amendment
necessitates additional budget under this task to cover the duration of the project. It is
expected that the project duration could extend up to one year. Budget is included for
ongoing client communications and invoicing over this duration as well as design team
coordination and internal QC review of documents.

2. Site Visits, Meetings, and Workshops
The site visits, meetings, and workshops scoped under this task have been completed. No
further work will be completed under this task.
3. Membrane Replacement Technical Memorandum
This task has been completed. No further work will be completed under this task.
4. As-Needed Services During Construction
This task has been completed. No further work will be completed under this task.
5. MBR and BNR Optimization
BHC has completed the evaluations associated with the optimization effort and submitted a
draft technical memorandum to the City for review. The only work remaining under this task
is to address final comments from the City on the current draft document and issue a final
PDF copy of the technical memorandum, if the City has comments requiring revisions.
Budget remaining from the initial authorization should be sufficient to cover this remaining
work, as long as the revisions pertain only to the content of the current draft document.
6. MBR Blower Selection, Sizing, Specification, and Support
The majority of the work scoped for this task has been completed. Remaining work includes
reviewing submittals from the MBR blower manufacturer associated with the MBR blower
pre-purchase, providing technical input pertaining to installation of the new MBR blowers,
and conducting a site visit to review installation of the new MBR blowers.
7. As-Needed MBR Programming Support
The City will be contracting directly with Kubota to have them update the MBR control
program. BHC will provide technical support to the City upon request to review information
and provide input pertaining to the MBR control programming. A total of $10,000 has been
allocated to this task for as-needed support that may include, among other things, assisting
with review of program narratives and logic, review of program screens and functions,
refinement of control narratives, site visits, meetings, assistance with determination of
control settings, troubleshooting, and review of programming performance. A portion of this
budget has been spent, with concurrence from the City, to cover out-of-scope work related
to the MBR blowers (i.e., energy savings calculations for the new turbo blowers and a site
visit to the Monroe WWTP to review their turbo blower installation). The remaining amount of
approximately $6,800 should be sufficient to provide the necessary support.
8. Prepare Bid Documents
BHC will prepare drawings and specifications for the proposed improvements. BHC will
provide a draft submittal for review by the City, conduct a review workshop with the City,
address City comments, and produce a final set of documents for bidding. Draft and final bid
documents will be provided as electronic copies only. Bid document preparation will include
the following activities:

• Prepare mechanical and structural drawings for the proposed improvement. The City
has indicated they will hire an on-call electrician to perform all electrical work and an
on-call systems integrator to perform all controls work. Therefore, electrical design
will be limited to confirming sizing and selection of the correct components and
instrumentation work will be limited to programming support covered under Task 7.
The following is a list of anticipated drawings, which is the basis of the budget
estimate:
o S1 Structural General Notes and Blower Pad Detail
o M1 Blower Installation Plan and Section
o M2 Blower Installation Details

o M4 Membrane Air Header Sections and Details
• Prepare technical specifications. Draft technical specifications will be prepared in CSI
format (Divisions 1 – 17). The final technical specifications will incorporate
comments received from the City on the draft specifications. The City will prepare all
other necessary documents (e.g., front end documents) and incorporate the
technical specifications prepared by BHC into a complete project manual. The
following is a list of anticipated technical specifications, which is the basis of the
budget estimate:
o 11501 Electric Actuators
o 15060 Process Pipe and Supports
o 15100 Valves and Piping Appurtenances

Ordinance
Community and Economic Development; Marc Hayes, Director EXPENDITURES REQUESTED: BUDGET CATEGORY: BUDGETED AMOUNT: LEGAL REVIEW: DESCRIPTION: Subarea Plan to be developed by the city staff and their consultant.
Emergency ordinance 2023-008 was adopted by the City on June 12, 2023, and emergency ordinance 2023-017 was adopted December 4, 2023, in order to suspend any new development applications within the identified Island Crossing Subarea and provide time for City staff and their consultants to conduct studies that will identify a vision and long-term design of the Island Crossing “Gateway” to include development design standards, infrastructure needs, conceptual roadway design, access control, stormwater solutions, and traffic throughput. The interim emergency ordinance is due to expire on J une 12, 2024, and requires an extension of that moratorium timeline to complete the described work.

ORDINANCE NO. 2024-XXX
AN INTERIM ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ARLINGTON, WASHINGTON,
EXTENDING A MORATORIUM ON THE ISSUANCE OF DEVELOPMENT PERMITS
WITHIN THE ISLAND CROSSING SUBAREA
WHEREAS, in conformity with the responsibilities of the City of Arlington to provide for
public health, safety and welfare requirements and zoning and land use regulations pursuant to
state law, and City’s authority to regulate land use activity within its corporate limits, the City
has adopted land use regulations; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has become aware of heightened interest of development
within the Island Crossing subarea; and
WHEREAS, particularly with parcels taking access from Highway 530, public safety issues
are raising additional concerns for future development; and
WHEREAS, the City is concerned about the proliferation of development and its impact
on traffic and safety, potential flooding, and additional issues associated with development in
this area; and
WHEREAS, a moratorium will provide the City with additional time to review and amend
its public health, safety and welfare requirements and zoning and land use regulations in the
Island Crossing subarea to preserve and protect land uses in the City and to assure orderly
development within the area; and
WHEREAS, Washington State law, including Sections 35A.63.220 and 36.70A.390 of the
Revised Code of Washington, (RCW) authorizes Washington cities to adopt moratoria and
provides for a pr ocess for a public hearing which must be held within sixty days of the dates of
the adoption of the moratorium; and
WHEREAS, the City previously adopted ordinance 2023-017 on December 4, 2023, and
ordinance 2023-008 on June 12, 2023, which scheduled public hearings required by R CW
36.70A.390 on December 4, 2023 and July 3, 2023, after which the moratorium continued in
effect; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the moratorium should be continued until the
City staff and consultants can complete their work; and
WHEREAS, the City Council adopts the foregoing a s its findings of fact justifying the
adoption of this ordinance;
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Arlington, Washington, do
ordain as follows:
Ordinance No. 2024-xxx 2
Section 1. Findings. The recitals set forth above are hereby adopted as the Arlington City
Council's findings in support of the moratorium imposed by this ordinance.
Section 2. Moratorium Extended. A moratorium is extended for a period of six (6)
months on the issuance of any development regulations within the Island Crossing subarea, as
more particularly defined in section 4 of Ordinance 2023-008. No new building permits,
occupancy permits, business licenses, development permits or approval or any other city-issued
license or permit shall be issued for any of the properties within the Island Crossing Subarea;
provided, however, that this shall not prohibit the issuance of permits in the event of an
emergency, to enable an existing property owner or business to maintain their buildings and
appurtenances or stay in compliance with business licensing regulations, or to permit the
correction of code violations.
Section 3. Term of Moratorium. The moratorium imposed by this ordinance shall
become effective on the date hereof and shall continue in effect for six months, unless
repealed, extended or modified by the City Council after subsequent public hearing(s) and entry
of appropriate findings of fact, pursuant to RCW 36.70A.390, provided that the moratorium
shall automatically expire upon the effective date of the adoption by the City Council of
additional public health, safety and welfare requirements and zoning and land use regulations
to address regulation of the Island Crossing subarea in the City of Arlington.
Section 4. Severability. If any section, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance
should be held to be unconstitutional by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or
unconstitutionality shall not affect the validity or constitutionality of any other section,
sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance.
Section 5. Declaration of Emergency. The City Council hereby declares that an
emergency exists necessitating that this ordinance take effect immediately upon passage by a
majority vote plus one of the whole membership of the Council, and that the same is not
subject to a referendum (RCW 35A.12.130). Without an immediate moratorium on the City’s
acceptance of development applications for the Smokey Point Subarea, said subarea could
locate and develop in a manner incompatible with the codes eventually adopted by the City.
Therefore, the moratorium must be imposed as an emergency measure to protect the public
health, safety, and welfare.
Section 6. Publication. This ordinance shall be published by an approved summary
consisting of the title.
Section 7. Effective Date. This ordinance shall take effect and be in full force and effect
five days following its publication as provided by law; provided, however, that unless extended
by act of the City Council, this ordinance shall automatically expire six (6) months following its
adoption.

June 3, 2024 Scope of Work (SOW) and fee from Commonstreet Consulting for additional Right-of-Way (ROW)
Amendment No. 1 Scope of Work / Fee
Public Works; Jim Kelly, Director EXPENDITURES REQUESTED: Not to Exceed $55,556.00 BUDGET CATEGORY: Transportation Improvement Fund, Grant Funding BUDGETED AMOUNT: $500,000 (2023-2024) LEGAL REVIEW: DESCRIPTION: 188th/Smokey Point Blvd Roundabout project.
The City of Arlington is moving forward with the installation of a roundabout at the 188th St and Smokey Point Blvd intersection. This project required the City to procure rights-of-way from several abutting parcel owners. Since federal funding is on this project, all procurement has to be contracted through an independent third party that negotiates for the right-of-way purchase without involvement by the City. The initial scope of work with Commonstreet was for services to procure two parcels. This contract amendment authorizes Commonstreet to procure the remaining parcels needed for the 188th Roundabout construction. ALTERNATIVES:
I move to approve the Commonstreet Consulting scope of work for a fee not to exceed $55,556 for the 188th/Smokey Point Blvd Roundabout Right of Way services, and authorize the Mayor to sign the contract amendment, subject to final review by the City Attorney.

Re: Revisions to Scope and Fee – PW-T23.008 f.k.a as 188th St Roundabout-Longhorn Saloon
Dear Mr. Kelly: Commonstreet appreciates the opportunity to partner with and work for the City of Arlington.
This request for a revised scope and supplemental budget is result of a) additional relocation tasks for Longhorn
Saloon (relocation plan), b) transferring remaining work on Jammeh to this contract, and c) the City’s request
for ROW services for 5 additional parcels for the 188th St Roundabout project.
Scope Summary, Assumptions and Project Understanding- It is assumed that relocation planning is required
for the Longhorn Saloon whole parcel acquisition and displacement, five (5) partial acquisitions are required
from: Smokey Y’s, Kazen, Wendell and Schack, Stillaguamish Tribe, and Allen Investiments, all remaining work
on Jammeh will be done under this contract. This request for a supplemental also includes relocation planning
services not included in the original scope. WSDOT ROW Certification service for the entire project will also be
required and was not contemplated in the original scope. It is also assumed 1) no personal property
relocations or displacements will be required, 2) no design changes will occur after the offer has been made,
and 3) that all acquisitions have been or will be valued by a WSDOT Approved Appraiser contracted directly to
the City. All acquisition activities will be executed in accordance with the City’s approved Right of Way
Procedures, the WSDOT LAG Manual, and all applicable state laws. It is further assumed no WSDOT ROW
Certification will be required.
Further, we understand that time is of essence for acquisition of the needed property rights and that the City
understands that the right of way services are being obtained within a proposed abbreviated right of way
acquisition schedule. Commonstreet will use its best efforts to meet the proposed schedule and is experienced
providing schedule saving and risk mitigation strategies to meet similar schedules. It is assumed that the City is
willing to use its condemnation authority to acquire these necessary property rights. Use of stipulations to
Public Use and Necessity can be considered as part of the project approach to meet the proposed schedule.
Best regards,
Chris LaBonte
