Capital Improvement Plan City of Middleton, Wisconsin Department Airport 2017 2021 thru Contact Mark Opitz Description Undertaking the planning necessary to position the airport to be eligible for future Federal funding to purchase land and prepare a hangar development site northeast of existing airport land. Project # AI-17-01 Priority 4 Justification City and airport staff regularly field inquiries for hangar space (probably an average of 2 inquiries per month), even after all 40 hangar sites at the airport have been developed. To accommodate additional hangars, contiguous land would need to be purchased and added to the airport. The most suitable location for additional hangars appears to be the northeast end of the airport, north of the primary runway and east of the grass runway. The City’s airport project manager at the Bureau of Aeronautics has indicated they there is adequate State funding currently available to provide a 50% match for preparing a “micro master plan” that studies the completion of a single large project at the airport. She estimates that such planning typically costs around $50,000. While it would be beneficial to do a comprehensive master plan given that the airport is now developed as originally envisioned, the BOA doesn’t have enough State funds available at a 50/50 cost share to assist the City with undertaking a full master plan and environmental assessment, and our annual Federal entitlement funding allocation of $150,000 is spoken for through 2018. (The City provides a 5% match to entitlement funds, which can be used for pavement maintenance projects and certain equipment purchases.) The City used TID #3 funds as its match for planning, designing and constructing the initial airport improvements, and City staff and TIF consultants continue to support the use of TID #3 for assisting with planning for additional hangar space to accommodate hangar demand, at least some of which is from business interests in Middleton and the west side of Madison. There is no guarantee that the BOA will have State funding available at a particular time in the future.

Project # BI-17-01 Priority 2 Justification Current building plans drawings are required to be submitted in PDF format because we have no space to store paper. Under last year’s public works capital budget we started digitizing electronic copies of older building plans (many of which are becoming dog-eared and difficult to read) to allow for efficient indexing, storage, and retrieval. Electronic storage would provide a more efficient system to retrieve plans and provide copies to the public when requested. It will also free up office space creating a less congested, more efficient work environment. It would also allow us to add space to our waiting area for visitors stopping in at the permitting desk.

The fire alarm control panel will replace a malfunctioning panel that is 24 years old. The computer based locking system will be a security upgrade to the existing locking system at City Hall. The new system will allow key card access for employees that will log who enters and exits the building. The system will also allow doors throughout City Hall (interior and exterior) to be programmed to lock and unlock at different times depending on staff needs. The cost for the fire panel is $2,570. The cost for the building access upgrades is $18,731. Project # BI-17-02 Priority 3 Justification The fire alarm control panel at City Hall is malfunctioning. In 2014, the alarm system starting to go off unexpectedly. When the alarm goes off, the Police Dispatcher and the Building and Facilities Manager are called. The Facilities Manager has had to come in to City Hall to fix the alarm in the middle of the night on weekends and at other off-duty times. The Police Department has found City Hall doors unsecured during routine security checks.

Initial trouble shooting has failed to fix it. Project # CS-17-01 Priority 2 Justification Radar speed display units are commonly used to address speeding issues. The City of Middleton has used them for the past 20 years since a home- made trailer mounted unit was built by the city mechanics sometime in the late 1990’s. Since then the City of Middleton has purchased a manufactured radar speed display trailer in 2000 and 2007, 10 permanently pole mounted units placed near the 3 elementary schools along streets where school crossing guards are posted and on the streets bordering the middle school. The trailer mounted units are placed in locations on request of the public reporting speeding issue, following speed studies or at the request of the police department. This past year, the trailer mounted unit purchased in 2007 has stopped working. Initial trouble shooting has failed to identify the cause and so no repair has yet occurred. City Mechanic Brian Gebhard has advised me to seek a replacement unit. The other unit, purchased in 2000 is still working, but it will need replacing sometime in the future. The proposed replacement model combines the features of an electronic portable changeable message signs (PCMS) with an integrated internal radar unit on a solar powered trailer. This allows the sign to display either a simple speed reading (47), a message tailored to a speed reading (eg. “THANKS FOR OBEYING THE SPEED LIMIT”, “SPEED LIMIT 25 / YOUR SPEED 47 / SLOW DOWN”) or used to display messages unrelated to speed like a regular PCMS. This makes this a very flexible unit.

I would like to purchase pairs of trailers in order to mount pairs of signs as the signs are usually used in pairs. Cost listed is for 1 pair of trailers at $6,000 each trailer equipped and delivered. Additional savings of about $1,300 can be had if 2 trailers are purchased and I pick them up instead of paying for shipping. This project can be completed by purchasing all 2 pair of trailers in one year or some combination of pairs over a number of years depending on the availability of funding. The sooner the purchase, the sooner the signs can be put into service. Project # CS-17-02 Priority 3 Justification Electronic portable message signs (PCMS) are becoming more and more common and expected for traffic incidents, road maintenance projects and special events. Wisconsin DOT makes installing permanent signs part of every major highway construction project (like the West Beltline Hwy) and the portable ones are seen at every construction project to better inform drivers of road conditions. These signs are now best practice if not actually required equipment for highway construction and maintenance projects. There are increasing calls from the Public Works, Water Utility and Police Departments for the signs for city projects ranging from traffic enforcement alert messages, annual street painting, water main breaks, increased road reconstruction projects, event traffic detours. These activities have called for up to 4 signs at a time; some deployments have lasted weeks making them unavailable for other needs during that time. Some requests have not been honored as the signs have been unavailable. It is apparent that as time goes on there will be increasing need for them. At the same time the original pair of trailers is now 7 years old and these will begin to show wear and will eventually need replacement. We currently have 6 trailer-mounted-solar-powered PCMS like what I am requesting, plus 2 battery powered ones on home-made trailers. The solar trailers make the signs more useful by providing them with a stable, higher and more visible, transportable and quickly erectable mount with a longer lasting power supply (2 weeks) versus a 8-12 hour portable battery pack power supply on the home-made trailers and ground mounted posts that leave the signs more exposed to accidental and vandal damage (collision or tip over) due to their less stable and lower mount. Multiple trailer- mounted signs provide more flexibility to provide sign services to the increasing number of multiple City construction and maintenance projects, City-sponsored community events and for emergency incidents throughout the City of Middleton.

Project # CL-17-07 Priority 2 Justification The Southfork of Pheasant Branch Creek has historically had problems of stream-channel erosion and suspended sediment because of urban land use changes in the basin. A streambank stabilization project was completed in October of 2013 to mitigate severe channel and bank erosion occurring in the reach of the South Fork of the Pheasant Branch Creek between Greenway Blvd and Deming Way caused by rapid urbanization of the drainage area and resulting increased flood peaks and water volumes. This project was largely successful although a few areas of erosion are developing due to surface water flows coming from adjacent parking lots. The construction will work to mitigate these problems.

This will also install remotely operated room darkening shade equipment on the upper clerestory windows in the EMS station training room and replace the failing analog AV projection system in the training room. NOTE: This is the third consecutive year that this request has been submitted for consideration Project # E-17-01 Priority 2 Justification The casework and cabinetry that was originally installed in the EMS building for storage of employee’s personal protective gear and uniforms was based upon the staffing model of 12 full-time paramedics each of who work a 56-hour average work week. Starting in mid-2015, the paramedics transitioned to a 52-hour work week and in mid-2016 they made the final transition to a 48-hour work week. At the point of the final transition, two additional permanent full-time paramedics were added into the workforce. These personnel now do not have any areas which they are able to store their protective gear, uniforms, food, valuables, or personal hygiene supplies, so additional storage space will need to be added. Ever since we moved into our building in September of 2010, we have dealt with an unintended design flaw in our training room. For purposes of energy conservation, upper clerestory windows were installed in the training room area, with the intention of using “natural” lighting instead of electrical lighting whenever the room is being used during daylight hours. Unfortunately this works too well and whenever multi-media presentations are used during training sessions, the intense sunlight floods the room and class participants cannot see the “washed out” images that are being displayed on the projection screen. The only way to alleviate this problem is to install some sort of remotely operated room darkening shade system to cover the east and west clerestory windows. In addition, the original analog AV projection system used for training is beginning to fail. The large projection screen is no longer able to be brought up/down due to a deterioration of the fire retardant coating. The analog projector is also incompatible with modern digital media and computers (most computers today only have HDMI outputs and longer have VGA ports on them), so many instructors who come to teach at our facility encounter difficulties when trying to deliver multi-media presentations. The projector lamp is also getting very weak and the cost of replacing the lamp itself is over half the cost of purchasing a brand new projector.

Project # E-18-01 Priority 3 Justification Way back in 2002 and 2003, EMS did a community wide fundraising event that raised money to buy a total of 13 AED’s. Six of these units were put into PD squad cars, one went to the fire department, and the other six were put in city buildings (City Hall, Library, Golf Course, EMS, Aquatic Center, and the Senior Center). Since that time, an additional 15 AED’s have been purchased by various city agencies out of their own budgets (3 by the fire department, 2 by EMS, 2 by Public Works, and 8 by the Police Department). EMS has committed to keeping all 28 of these AED’s updated with the latest software and stocked with new defibrillation pads, other disposable medical supplies, and batteries over their useful life. This alone has an impact on our budget of over $5,200 each year. However, we do not have the ability to absorb the cost of replacing the AED’s when they reach the end of their useful life, or if any of them need significant repairs. Since we started the AED program 14 years ago, we have had 2 out of 28 units fail which required costly repairs – both of them were PD units. The first repair that occurred in July 2013 was paid for by EMS in the amount of $400. We also paid the cost of $630 to complete the repairs on the second AED from the PD. The problem is that going forward, without some additional funding from the city, we cannot be on the hook for repair or replacement of all 28 of the AED’s that are deployed across the city. As I stated before, we are already are investing $5,200 a year just to keep these AED’s ready for use on a daily basis. Beyond the initial 12 units that were purchased, individual city departments have elected to “expand their fleet” of AED’s and they were purchased by those departments with their own resources. EMS assisted each of those departments to purchase those AEDs because we have access to substantial discounts from the manufacturer (Zoll) that those departments would not otherwise have been able to get on their own. But as time moves on, we (EMS) certainly cannot be expected to pay for repair or replacement of all of these additional 15 units that were purchased electively by these departments. If we had to pay to replace all 28 units at $1,500 each – that is a hefty sum of over $42,000, which is not something that we can absorb within the confines of the existing EMS operational budget, which leads to the point that was made earlier. So far, we have had a reasonably good experience with these AED’s. The only 2 repairs have been for PD units that were purchased back in 2002. The other 26 units have not had any problems - yet. At some point, I suspect we are going to face more AED units that will need to be repaired. One can make a good argument that the cost to repair this latest unit ($630) is 40% of the cost of a new AED, so why not just keep on fixing them? The problem is that we also do want to set up a situation where an aging AED could fail during an emergency and potentially result in a life not being saved. Unfortunately, Zoll cannot give any indication of the life expectancy of an AED. They are designed to be easily updated via software revisions. But there is no reliable way to predict the hardware life expectancy. Some of this is likely related to the environment in which they are used. Clearly an AED that is hauled around in a squad car in a wide range of environmental conditions is more likely to have problems when compared to an AED that sits in a building in a protective cabinet on the wall. We need to put a plan forth for future replacements of the older AED’s (six of which are PD units) at some yet to be determined milestone (15 years?). BUT, going forward, EMS cannot assume the cost for repairing any electively purchased units by any city department, nor can we fund the replacement of any AED’s that have reached the end of their useful life.

We are requesting financial support to purchase two automated CCDs in order to provide patients with the best available emergency care. An automated CCD delivers superior cardiac compressions when compared to the variability in compression depth and rate that is normally found when human rescuers perform manual compressions. Due to improved perfusion from adequate, constant chest compressions from an automated CCD, cardiac drugs will be able to circulate faster and more completely, improving the chances of inducing a cardiac that can be defibrillated. Concurrent with restoring blood flow to normal levels, venipuncture for IV therapy has a better chance to be successfully completed. Automated CCDs also have been reported to reduce the risk of rib fractures and cartilage damage that is routinely encountered with manual chest compression during conventional CPR techniques. The use of an automated CCD for pre-hospital care translates into optimal patient care during the cardiac arrest event and dramatically increases the potential for increased survival rates. Project # E-20-01 Priority 4 Justification Historically, over 8% of the ALS level ambulance calls that are responded to each year by MEMS require the performance of CPR. Performing a cost-benefit analysis in this situation is difficult when the cost is expressed as the loss of a life, and the benefit is a life saved. The overall benefit of this project to our community can simply be stated as the ability for Middleton EMS to achieve a significant reduction in mortality and morbidity for victims of cardiac arrest. We only need to look at the recently released American Heart Association (AHA) Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC) Guidelines 2010 which now places the absolute highest priority upon properly performed CPR. The new guidelines require rescuers to perform five cycles of 30 compressions and two ventilations between defibrillation attempts. As compared to previous standards for CPR, these new compression/ventilation ratios cause significant rescuer fatigue and exhaustion, which is why the AHA is also recommending that the rescuer who is performing chest compressions on the patient be switched every two minutes to avoid degradation in the quality and effectiveness of the CPR. Because of this new standard, we will need to have many more rescuers available at the resuscitation scene to rotate through the chest compressor role. But, because the automated CCD can deliver compressions non-stop for a virtually unlimited period of time, it will allow the rescuers to do other critical patient care tasks like securing the airway, starting IVs, administering drugs, defibrillation, packaging and moving the patient, as well as other necessary functions that are required by ACLS treatment protocols. As we come to understand the value of continuous correctly performed chest compressions on patient survival, and our knowledge that rescuers can only do high quality compressions for about 2 minutes at a stretch, an automated CCD will ensure the best patient care possible and improve the outcome and survival of cardiac arrest patients. Besides improving the quality of patient care, the use of an automated CCD will also reduce the risk of personal injury to the EMS crew and the firefighters who assist them on cardiac arrest calls. Rescuers are always at risk when it is necessary for them to perform CPR in awkward positions while moving patients through narrow and winding corridors, or descending treacherous stairways in multi-level residential settings. Furthermore, the risk of injury is high should an impact occur during transport to the hospital while firefighters and EMS personnel are performing CPR while standing unrestrained in the back of a moving ambulance. Another factor related to the use of human personnel to perform CPR that negatively affects patient care can be found in the ambulance patient compartment environment, where there is a very limited amount of space that rapidly becomes cramped whenever several people hover around the patient during resuscitation attempts. Having an automated CCD on the patient frees up that space for caregivers and allows uncluttered access to patient.

Upgraded intake system to eliminate foreign material from entering pumps and irrigation system. “Jockey” lift pump to supply lower amounts of water to irrigation system as needed without having to fire up large pumps. Newer electronic control system that runs more efficient and more reliably. Newer control system will also communicate with current Toro Lynx sprinkler control software to allow completely autonomous overnight irrigation. Wet-well improvements as needed for new pump station. Building improvements and/or new construction as needed for new pump station. Project # GC-17-01 Priority 2 Justification Current pump station originally dates back to 1960’s and was designed for an 18 hole course. Basic building structure has remained the same. Current horizontal pump station features two 75hp motors driving 2 horizontal pumps. Various components have been replaced due to normal wear since then and electronics were modified during the course reconstruction to have variable speed control capability on one pump. Station has exceeded life expectancy by many years and has high maintenance costs. Overall pump capacity was not increased since the addition of 18 holes. Current pump output is around 1200GPM. Upgrading to 1500GPM pumps allows us to put the same amount of water down in a shorter timeframe, thus making it easier to schedule watering times and shorten watering times. Increased water output and new control system also allows the Toro Lynx sprinkler control system to best utilize pump output beginning to end of watering schedule by running the sprinklers in the most efficient pattern without worrying about running out of flow or making adjustments quicker than current pumps and controls can keep up with. Current electronic controls are considered “Legacy” by service provider. That means some parts are no longer available, not kept on hand, and are priced at a higher rate due to lack of demand. Current horizontal pumps require a vacuum priming system which entails a vacuum pump and vacuum lines connected to the main water pipes. In order for these pumps to pump water, the vacuum pump must first place a vacuum on the system to assist in “drawing” the water into the pump impeller. This system must run for several minutes to have adequate vacuum. This system comes with a certain degree of complexity and potential problems, including: Maintenance to the vacuum pump, motor, drying system, tank, vacuum lines, check valves and fittings. The inability to start and stop the pumps quickly as sometimes required to run the system at peak efficiency. With this style priming system and how our deep well output piping is run, you cannot run the sprinkler system fully automated. The deep well draws ground water to refill the pond. It empties into the wet-well, where the irrigation pumps draw their water supply from. With the system in automatic, it starts and stops the irrigation pumps as needed, but with the deep well pump running, the water in the wet-well is agitated to the point that the intake pipes for the irrigation pumps don’t make a good enough seal and the vacuum priming system doesn’t work. The irrigation pumps are on a timer to allow the priming system to have adequate time to prime the system. If the timer runs out, and the pumps start to run without adequate prime, severe pump damage will occur, which has been an issue in the past. The solution to this is to not run the deep well pump at the same time as the system is watering in automatic mode. The problem with this is the irrigation system can pump water out of the pond quicker than the deep well can refill it. This ok to do for one or two watering’s, but then the deep well needs to run for a long period of time bring water level in the pond back up. Another problem with not running the deep well pump at the same time as the irrigation pumps, is the suction of foreign materials (pond debris) into the irrigation pump pipes. The piping from the deep well is run into the wet well partially in an effort to “push” foreign material away from the intake of the irrigation pipes. The intake pipes have screens on the bottom to prevent most of this material from entering the irrigation system causing damage to the pumps, valves and sprinklers. When the screens get clogged however, the intake pipes have to be unbolted and removed from the wet well, by use of chains and winches by 4 to 5 maintenance personnel, screens cleaned off, then reinstalled. During this process, which might take up to an hour, all irrigation must come to a stop. The pipes need to be pulled for this process about 20 times a season. It also calls into question whether or not the building ceiling was ever designed to handle the load of the weight of the pipe. Alternative to the current method is to have a crane come in and pull pipes through the roof. Sometimes this all has to take place at an extremely quick pace when a fertilizer application has been done and it needs to be watered in to prevent burning the grass and long term turf damage. Another advantage of the proposed new system would be the inclusion of a “jockey” pump. Currently we have no way to just water a small area at will without starting the entire pump station. A Jockey pump is a small pump with a lower horsepower motor that can be started to pressurize the system for watering small areas without having to start and run the rest of the pump station. New pump station would use vertical turbine pumps These pumps have impellers submerged in water and require no priming system to start. They also are more efficient. A vertical impeller pump will run roughly half the speed as a horizontal pump to pump the same amount of water, effectively doubling the service life of critical components like bearings. Water usage from an environmental standpoint also needs to be considered by everyone. New technologies with this system allow us to use the least amount of water necessary to perform the task at hand.

Long term exposure to noise and grinding dust has caused concern among workers. Newer grinder would be totally enclosed to eliminate noise and dust. Newer grinders are quicker, more accurate, and feature more automation than current grinder.

This cost estimate is for the intersection improvements, and does not include the cost for additional right-of-way needed. Project # PL-17-02 Priority 2 Justification The intersection of University Avenue and Parmenter Street experiences operational deficiencies during existing weekday morning and afternoon peak traffic periods. Much of the operational and safety deficiencies at this intersection can be attributed to the existing lane configuration along University Avenue. University Avenue does not provide exclusive left-turn lanes at Parmenter Street. Through movements are hesitant to use the inner lanes along University Avenue at Parmenter Street due to being stuck behind left-turning vehicles. As a result, the distribution of traffic is disproportionate between the two travel lanes. Furthermore, the disproportionate lane utilization can lead to through-movement vehicles in the inner lanes quickly changing lanes in anticipation of left-turning vehicles. This condition results in a higher probability of sideswipe and rear-end crashes. While protective-permissive traffic signal phasing is provided for the predominant left-turn movements during peak traffic periods, the lack of exclusive left-turn lanes leads to a high amount of green time required for University Avenue movements. As a result, the deficient intersection lane configuration and signal phasing leads to delays along University Avenue and Parmenter Street.

Project # PL-17-04 Priority 3 Justification In August 2014, Metro Transit established a time point near the Greenway Blvd / John Q Hammons Dr. intersection to coordinate connections between several bus routes. At the time, City and Metro staff decided to locate the bus stop several hundred feet north of Greenway Blvd. so that stopped buses straddling the bike lane and travel lane wouldn’t block northbound traffic close to the intersection. The bus stop (which includes a shelter and concrete boarding pad) is located a few feet south of a driveway that serves five businesses in the northeast quadrant of the intersection. Subsequently, the City has received several complaints from drivers about limited sight distance from the driveway caused by buses that typically remain stopped for five minutes or longer to accommodate passenger transfers and short breaks for bus drivers. In consultation with Metro, planning and engineering staff have developed a plan to establish a bus turnout closer to the Greenway Blvd. intersection. The turnout would help keep two buses from encroaching into the northbound travel lane and bike lane. No right-of-way acquisition is necessary, although one terrace tree would be removed. The cost estimate is based on $4,350 for 541 sq.ft. of concrete flatwork; $10,800 for 270 linear ft. of curb and gutter; $630 for 538 sq.ft. of asphalt; and an allowance for mobilization, traffic control, and landscape restoration. Metro hasn’t made any substantive changes to bus routes and schedules in this area for over two years, so City staff are confident that this bus stop will remain in use for the foreseeable future.

Rather than rely on manual filling of the cistern, a pipe connection to a nearby water supply (a hydrant or drinking fountain) would provide a reliable and automated water supply during periods of dry weather. Project # PL-17-05 Priority 4 Justification The cistern has not proven to be as reliable or as cost-effective as anticipated. Aside from developing a leak twice since its installation, the cistern appears only to have enough capacity to provide water for up to four days without rain. During the growing season, Public Lands staff visit the site twice per week, remove the manhole cover, and assess the water level to ensure that the cistern doesn’t run dry. (If the cistern runs dry, then the pump serving the irrigation system needs to be re-primed, which can be a challenging and time-consuming process.) To fill the cistern, a Public Lands crewmember runs a hose to the hydrant on the south side of the street and waits approximately 45 minutes for it to fill the 550 gallon reservoir. The hose occasionally breaks from cars running over it. During 2016, the City will spend at least $1,500 through a maintenance agreement with Olson Toon Landscaping to start up, monitor, and winterize the irrigation system. There’s an additional, $150 charge to re-prime the pump when necessary. This capital budget request would provide a permanent water connection that could be used as a back-up to when the water runs low in the cistern. Alternately, it could provide the sole water source if the cistern were to be abandoned.

The replacement package includes Sound Off NForce 54” LED Light bars, Sound Off brand surface mounted LED lighting for side markings, dual Sound Off sirens, Fleet power supply units and the Sound Off Blue Print Controllers delivered and installed. The complete package is priced at $8,295.00 per vehicle for a total project cost of $82,950.00. Project # PD-17-01 Priority 2 Justification The emergency lighting, siren and controllers currently installed in all MiPD marked patrol vehicles were purchased in 2004. The life expectancy of these various components is 10-12 years. In 2015, the Police Department began having to regularly repair and replace various components within the squad lighting systems. In doing so, we found that the main components were no longer in production and support for these units was limited. In June of 2016, one of the top light units failed completely and had to be replaced. A second top light is currently having issues, but we are trying to limp it along until they can all be replaced. City of Middleton Lead Mechanic Gebhard and Officer Raffel have conducted research and sought bids on various emergency lighting replacement systems. In doing so they have determined that the best value for the dollar system is currently being offered by the Sound Off Corporation. On site testing of these units and their controller was recently conducted and the products were found to be of excellent quality and versatility. The control units for these new Sound Off systems are of this century and no longer use the antiquated and limiting lever control system that is currently deployed by this department. The new fully programmable digital control heads provide numerous safety and lighting control options. The actual physical operation of these new units is markedly different from the current systems and will take some training to get officer accustom to. For this reason, we do not believe that it is safe to have varying systems in different marked patrol units. The patrol vehicle’s emergency lighting system is generally utilized in high stress situations where staff does not have the luxury of time to stop and think about the functionality of the equipment in their respective vehicle. This must be a trained reflect move that is of second nature. Once again, to perform at this level we believe that we must replace all marked unit controllers in a single process and are therefore seeking to replace all emergency lighting systems in 2017.

The Middleton Police Department currently operates a fleet of ten fully marked patrol vehicles and ten unmarked units. Three of the highest mileage marked vehicles in the fleet are Ford sedans. These sedans are being phased out of the patrol fleet, in favor of sport utility vehicles, as the SUV provides room for two officers to travel in a single vehicle and they have sufficient room for larger staff members wearing a full police uniform. Project # PD-18-01 Priority 2 Justification The City of Middleton lead Mechanic Brian Gebhard is recommending that marked patrol vehicles be replaced every three years, when they have reached between seventy and eighty thousand miles, due to maintenance costs and appearance. Gebhard has estimated the annual increase in vehicle maintenance costs for patrol vehicles above the eighty thousand mile mark to be between $3,000.00 and $4,000.00. The individual squad costs include the police equipment tear down and re-build performed by General Communications, the purchasing of some new internal equipment to outfit the new model vehicles, $1,125.00 of computer components previously budgeted for by the City of Middleton Information Technology Department and a credit for the vehicle’s trade in value. The three Taurus sedans will be provided to the City of Middleton Administrative fleet for a total trade in value of $14,000.00. The three sedans will be replaced with Ford Police Interceptor all-wheel drive SUV’s. The cost for each of these new patrol vehicles, with all of the standard police equipment installed, is projected at $46,156.00 per unit. The total cost of the three new vehicles, minus the trade-in value of the three retired sedans, is $124,468.00. It is also the recommendation of City of Middleton lead Mechanic Brian Gebhard that the Police Department seek to replace one of its aging unmarked vehicles in 2017. Although not the oldest unmarked vehicle in the fleet, the 2008 Chevrolet Impala is the most worn. This unit would be replaced with an unmarked vehicle estimated to cost, with scaled down police equipment installed, $36,500.00. The Chevrolet Impala would be traded in at the time of purchase and has an estimated trade-in value of $4,500.00.

The multiple receive sites greatly improve the ability of officers portable radios to be heard by the dispatcher. Project # PD-18-02 Priority n/a Justification The single transmit site at the PD, while quite powerful, is not capable of penetrating all buildings and shielded areas in the city. As the city continues to grow, and as more commercial/heavy construction buildings are erected, this situation becomes more common/gets worse. Simulcast transmit is a technology that radiates the repeater/outgoing signal from multiple sites simultaneously. Thus, transmit performance is improved in the same way that receive performance is improved by multiple receive sites. This technology, when first introduced, was prohibitively expensive. However recent advances have reduced the cost of simulcast systems by an order of magnitude or more. No radio system can provide 100% coverage, however simulcast technology has the ability to significantly improve signal strength and building penetration. For problem buildings, a simulcast site can even be deployed in that building, possibly being paid for by the building owner. Some municipalities have ordinances that require adequate public safety radio coverage inside structures, and require that this be addressed in any new construction. A simulcast-capable system would be one way for us to enable a future building owner to provide improved PD radio coverage in his/her building, whether required by ordinance or voluntary.

The Middleton Police Department currently operates ten fully marked patrol units and ten unmarked units. The Middleton Police Department radio system is also utilized daily in the Community Services Vehicle operated by Mark Walther. Project # PD-18-03 Priority 6 Justification Due to our geographic location, Middleton police officers have the potential to interoperate with officers from the Dane County Sheriff’s Office, Wisconsin State Patrol, UW-Madison Campus Police, and the Madison Police Department. Middleton has CAPMAR (Capital Area Police Mutual Aid Response) agreements with these and other nearby agencies, all of which operate on different radio systems. The new “DaneCom” county radio system has improved our ability to communicate with surrounding agencies in many circumstances. However, the DaneCom system still has several interoperability gaps that are problematic for Middleton. In an emergency, police officers require direct and reliable communications with other agency officers that they may be working with. Middleton squads are currently equipped with two mobile radios, each on a different radio frequency band, to allow for access to these multiple surrounding radio systems. The Madison/UW radios are beyond their useful life expectancy, and are no longer supported by the manufacturer. The manufacturer of the main squad car radio, used for our local Middleton, Dane County, and State systems, has announced an end of support date of December 31st, 2018. Parts and service will no longer be reliably available for these radios after this date. Middleton Police radio communication consultant Tom Adler has worked with various radio manufacturers and retailers exploring long term product solutions and cost comparisons. We are requesting replacement of the entire police department mobile fleet radios, rather than a staggered replacement, so as to more quickly address the manufacturer support issue as well as to provide standardization among all of the radios. A consistent equipment array in all squads minimizes confusion, and lessens the possibility of reflex errors in urgent situations. The cost to purchase and install the dual band radios in the ten marked patrol vehicles and in Walther’s Community Awareness vehicle is $155,407.96. The cost to replace the nine VHF & 800 megahertz radios in the unmarked patrol vehicles is $64,604.34. The cost to purchase and install vehicular repeater programming software is $480.00.

Project # PW-17-17 Priority 4 Justification There are many pedestrians, including young children and elderly people, that access Lakeview Park from the nearby neighborhood, Springtree Apartments, and Heritage Senior Living complex. There have been frequent reports of drivers not properly yielding to pedestrians in the crosswalk. The crosswalk is fairly well marked, signed and lit, it’s on a fairly wide, straight section of road, and I believe the police have placed red flags on each side, so it isn’t apparent how better to highlight for drivers that there’s a crosswalk there. There is a slight bend in the road to the west of the crosswalk, the area is generally shaded due to the trees and brush along the south side of the road, and with vehicles often parked along both sides of the street drivers may not notice pedestrians entering the road. Pedestrian safety could be enhanced by RRFB lights that would provide additional warning to drivers when pedestrians are present.

Pedestrians and bicyclists desiring to visit Orchid Heights Park or the trails in the nearby Pheasant Branch Conservancy have no good option to using the crosswalk at the intersection of CTH Q and Shorecrest Dr. Fortunately, the crosswalk is fairly well marked, signed and lit, and it’s on a fairly wide, straight section of road near the crest of a hill, so pedestrians and approaching drivers should be able to see each other. Despite that, there have been complaints of drivers who have failed to properly yield to pedestrians.

At the time of plan approval, it was recommended that the plan be updated after about 7 years or so. Project # PW-17-20 Priority 5 Justification Much of the existing-year / future-year analysis in the 2006 plan is pretty dated. As a result, many of the plan recommendations are no longer applicable, due to changes in land uses and roadways in the past 10 years. This plan update would re-evaluate items such as roadway classification, transit service, bike/ped connectivity, traffic demand management (TDM) methodologies, and the current roadway system. Modeling and analysis would be included for traffic operations and crash analysis at 43 intersections (25 intersections have already been counted in recent development studies) for near-term, mid-term, and design-year (Year 2050).

Project # PW-17-21 Priority 4 Justification Like other roads, railroads degrade through use and over time. Without periodic rehabilitation of rail components and adjacent drainage ditches, the rail structure breaks down and creates unsafe operating conditions. In the past, the City has received notice that the railroad operator will not run trains on our tracks, which has disrupted business at Future Foam and Hall Lumber. The City has also been notified of eroded ditches, washed out stone ballast support of the railroad ties, rotted ties and broken rail sections. Rehabilitation work was done in 1996 ($40K), 1999 ($22K), 2000 ($17K), 2001 ($17K) and 2006 ($48K). Minor repairs are funded in the 2016 operating budget ($15K).

The work was scheduled for 2016, but now is proposed to be combined with additional of stream in this reach that also require stabilization measures. The segment abutting the Donna Dr pond is critical to ensure the stability of the stream bank against catastrophic failure. The bank supports a perched infiltration pond. The work includes reinforcing the toe of bank against sloughing due to saturation from infiltration processes. Costs shown include engineering and construction. Project # SW-17-01 Priority 2 Justification The critical portion of this work is necessary to protect the City’s investment in the new pond and in the Pheasant Branch corridor. This portion, relative to the overall pond project cost, is relatively low ($20,000 v $374K for Phase 1, the Pond; and $177K for Phase 2, the stabilization of the upper bank).

It will be the first one wholly funded by the SWU. Work consists of sampling sediments, doing a topo survey before and after (to measure volume removed) and dredging accumulated sediments from pond bottom. Also needed is the identification of lands to be used for dewatering of the dredge material. Project # SW-17-02 Priority 3 Justification South Pond is reaching the end of its functional life as a regional sediment trap in the Pheasant Branch watershed, tributary to Lake Mendota. The sediment trapping efficiency of a pond begins to fall off when the permanent pool of water is less than three feet in depth. Measurements from two years ago show some areas to be as little as two feet in depth. NOTE: Absent any design, the construction cost shown should be considered as a rough estimate, subject to other potential costs not yet identified. For example, the City may need to acquire a dewatering site to accomplish the dredging.
