October 18, 2011
TO: City Council
FROM: Jacob J. Winzenz, Director of Admin. Services\Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Action on a Proposed Resolution Authorizing the Issuance of $13,970,000 General
Obligation Promissory Notes, Series 2011-A, of the City of Janesville, Wisconsin, and
Providing the Details Thereof (File Res. #2011-842)
Summary
The City of Janesville uses a two-step process for the issuance of Promissory Notes. On October
10, 2011, the City Council reviewed the proposed capital program and approved the initial resolution
authorizing the issuance of $12,065,000 in promissory notes. At that time the City Council could
either increase or decrease the proposed note issue. The City Council will now consider the details
resolution (File Resolution 2011-842). At this time the City Council cannot increase the total amount
th
of the note issue, but can only approve it as is, or decrease the total. On Monday, November 14
the City Council will be asked to award the sale of the notes and we expect to receive to proceeds
from the note sale on December 1, 2011.
Recommendation
Staff has examined each project included in the proposed note issue and deferred a number of
projects in order to reduce the debt service impact. I believe the projects included reflect the needs
of the community and the priorities of the City Council. I recommend that the City Council approve
File Resolution 2011-842 as proposed.
City Manager Recommendation
The City Manager concurs with the Administrative Services Department recommendation.
Suggested Motion
I move to approve File Resolution 2011-842 authorizing the issuance of $13,970,000 General
Obligation Promissory Notes, Series 2011-A, of the City of Janesville, Wisconsin, and providing the
details thereof.

NOTE - Does not include
• Water and Wastewater Utility Revenue Bonds
• Amount borrowed in 2006 to refund 1999 Promissory Notes $3,175,000
• Amount borrowed in 2009 to refund 2000, 2001, 2002, & 2003 Promissory Notes $9,065,000
In addition to funding our annual capital improvement program, File Resolution 2011-842 authorizes
the issuance of $1,905,000 in debt to refund series 2003 and 2003A notes. These notes were
callable on August 1, 2011 and carry interest rates ranging from 3.10% to 3.50%. We are proposing
calling these notes for 2 reasons. First, for interest savings as current interest rates are estimated to
be 2.5% or less. Second, a portion of the 2003 notes are special assessment debt and we would
like to reclassify this to General Fund debt.
The 2011 General Fund Budget contains a debt service appropriation of $4,983,084. Based upon
previously issued General Obligation Debt, our 2012 General Fund debt service appropriation would
be $4,735,658. However, we anticipate having to budget approximately $452,921 for debt service,
based on an average estimated 2.5% interest rate, related to the proposed 2011 Note Issue.
3
Therefore, our total 2012 debt service appropriation will be approximately $5,188,579 or $205,496
(4.1%) more than the amount budgeted for this year.
The General Fund’s share of the authorized issue will be repaid over a term of ten years. Based

have on future annual debt service tax levies. Please note that the amount reported for 2015
does not include our $2,103,000 principal payment related to the 2005 taxable note issue (WRS
refinancing).

The Council Policy Statement – “Debt Management” places two (2) limitations on the issuance of
debt. First, general obligation debt is limited to 2.5% of the equalized assessed value. If the
proposed note issue is approved, general obligation debt will represent 1.89% of the equalized value
of the community. Second, annual General Fund debt service payments for General Obligation
Debt, exclusive of that funded by enterprise operations or debt approved exceeding the debt limit
described above, shall not exceed 15 percent of annual General Fund expenditures. If the proposed
note issue is approved, General Fund debt service payments will equal 12.4% of annual General
Fund expenditures.
In addition, the Council Policies on Debt Management references several debt ratios, which are used
by investors and financial rating analysts when they review the City’s credit worthiness. These ratios
are: Applicable to Legal Debt Margin; Debt Per Capita – All Funds (G.O. & Revenue Debt); Debt as
Percentage of Equalized Value; and General Fund Debt Service as Percentage of Total Actual
Exhibit III
Expenditures. illustrates these ratios. It should be noted that we are proposing to issue
$12,065,000 in new debt, whereas, the total amount of existing debt principal scheduled to be retired
this year will total $14,115,021.
During the Council Meeting of October 24, 2011, the Council will consider Resolution
#2011-842 which will finalize their consideration of City projects, which are proposed to be financed
Exhibit I
by the issuance of long-term debt ().
It should be noted, regarding the General Fund debt service requirements, based upon an average
estimated interest rate of 2.5% and a term of ten years, each $100,000 of note proceeds will result in
an average annual debt service payment of approximately $11,188.
For Council’s reference, also attached is a Memorandum Report, which describes the scope of the
Exhibit II
individual projects (). This attachment was also included with the previously adopted
Resolution #201-841, which authorized the issuance of these notes.

thereof specified in said notice shall become due and payable at the applicable redemption
price on the redemption date therein designated, and if, on the redemption date, moneys for
payment of the redemption price of all the notes or portions thereof to be redeemed, together
with interest to the redemption date, shall be available for such payment on said date, then from
and after the redemption date interest on such notes or portions thereof shall cease to accrue
and shall become payable.
This note is transferable only upon such registration books by the registered owner
hereof in person, or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, upon surrender hereof at the
office of the Note Registrar together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Note
Registrar duly executed by the registered owner or by his duly authorized attorney, and
thereupon a new registered note or notes, in the authorized denominations of $5,000 or any
integral multiple thereof and of the same aggregate principal amount, maturity and interest rate
as this note shall be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor. In like manner, this note
may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of notes of the same maturity and
interest rate and of any of such authorized denominations. The City or the Note Registrar may

Section 6.
Transfer, Exchange and Registry
. The Notes shall be negotiable, subject
to the provisions for registration of transfer contained herein. Each Note shall be transferable
only upon the registration books maintained by the City for that purpose at the office of the note
registrar, by the registered owner thereof in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing,
upon surrender thereof together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the note
registrar and duly executed by the registered owner or his duly authorized attorney. Upon the
surrender for transfer of any such Note, the City shall execute and the note registrar shall
authenticate and deliver a new Note or Notes registered in the name of the transferee, of the
same aggregate principal amount, maturity and interest rate as the surrendered Note. Notes,
upon surrender thereof at the office of the note registrar, with a written instrument satisfactory to
the note registrar, duly executed by the registered owner or his attorney duly authorized in
writing, may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of Notes of the same
maturity and interest rate and of the denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof.
For every such exchange or registration of transfer of Notes, the City or the note
registrar may make a charge sufficient to reimburse it for any tax, fee or other governmental
charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer, which sum or sums shall
be paid by the person requesting such exchange or transfer as a condition precedent to the
exercise of the privilege of making such exchange or transfer. No other charge shall be made
for the privilege of making such transfer or exchange.
7
The note registrar shall not be required to transfer or exchange any Note after notice of
the redemption of all or a portion thereof has been mailed. The note registrar shall not be
required to transfer or exchange any Note during a period of 15 days next preceding the mailing
of a notice of redemption that could designate for redemption all or a portion of such Note.
The City and the note registrar may deem and treat the person in whose name any Note
shall be registered upon the registration books as the absolute owner of such Note, whether
such Note shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the
principal of, premium, if any, or interest thereon and for all other purposes whatsoever, and all
such payments so made to any such registered owner or upon his order shall be valid and
effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Note to the extent of the sums or sums
so paid, and neither the City nor the note registrar shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary.
In order to provide for the initial issuance of the Notes in a form that provides for a
system of book-entry only transfers, the ownership of one fully registered Note for each maturity
in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity shall be registered in the name of
Cede & Co., as a nominee of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (“DTC”). In
the event that the City determines that the system of book-entry only transfers through DTC (or
a successor securities depository) is not in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners (as
hereinafter defined) of the Notes or is burdensome to the City, the City may notify DTC,
whereupon DTC will notify the DTC Participants (as hereinafter defined) of the availability
through DTC of Note certificates. In such event, the City shall issue and the note registrar shall
authenticate, transfer and exchange note certificates as requested by DTC of like principal
amount, series and maturity, in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof to the
identifiable Beneficial Owners, in replacement of such Beneficial Owners’ beneficial interests in
the Notes. For the purposes of this paragraph, the term “Beneficial Owners” shall mean
(a) those persons for whom DTC was created to hold their securities (“DTC Participants”), and
(b) the persons for whom the DTC Participants acquire interests in the Notes as nominees.
Section 7.
Note Registrar
. The City has contracted with and designated Wells Fargo
Bank, N.A., Chicago, Illinois, to serve as fiscal agent pursuant to Section 67.10(2), Wisconsin
Statutes, and as note registrar. The City covenants that it maintain at the designated office of
such note registrar a place where Notes may be presented for payment and registration of
transfer or exchange and that it shall require that the note registrar maintain proper registration
books and perform the other duties and obligations imposed upon it by this resolution in a
manner consistent with the standards, customs and practices of the municipal securities
business.
The note registrar shall signify its acceptance of the duties and obligations imposed
upon it by this resolution by executing the certificate of authentication on any Note, and by such
execution the note registrar shall be deemed to have certified to the City that it has all requisite
power to accept, and has accepted, such duties and obligations not only with respect to the
Note so authenticated but with respect to all the Notes. The note registrar is the agent of the
City and shall not be liable in connection with the performance of its duties except for its own
negligence or default. The note registrar shall, however, be responsible for any representation
in its certificate of authentication on the Notes.
The City may remove the note registrar at any time. In case at any time the note
registrar shall resign or shall be removed or shall become incapable of acting, or shall be
adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or if a receiver, liquidator or conservator of the note registrar,
or of its property, shall be appointed, or if any public officer shall take charge or control of the
8
note registrar or of its property or affairs, the City covenants and agrees that it will thereupon
appoint a successor note registrar. The City shall mail notice of such appointment made by it to
each registered owner of Notes within 20 days after such appointment. Any successor note
registrar appointed under the provisions of this Section, other than the Finance Director, shall be
a bank, trust company or national banking association maintaining a corporate trust office in the
State of Wisconsin, the City of Chicago, Illinois, or the Borough of Manhattan, City and State of
New York.
Section 8.
Sale of Notes
. The Notes shall be advertised for sale by the City Clerk in
the manner provided herein, and the City Clerk is authorized to circulate an Official Statement

the Notes, fix the interest rates thereon in accordance with the bid accepted, and levy taxes to
meet principal thereof and interest thereon at maturity as required by law.
Section 9.
Application and Investment of Note Proceeds
. Following the sale of the
Notes, the City Manager and City Clerk are hereby authorized and directed to execute and
deliver the Notes to the purchasers thereof upon payment therefor; and the principal proceeds
from the sale of the Notes shall be used only for the purposes and in the manner required by
law and by this resolution. The proceeds may be invested in the manner permitted by law,
subject to the restrictions contained in the next succeeding section.
Section 10.
Tax Covenants
.
(a)
The City shall not take, nor omit to take, any action that is lawful and
within its power to take, which action or omission would cause interest on any Note to
become subject to federal income taxes in addition to federal income taxes to which
interest on such Note is subject on the date of issuance thereof.
(b)
The City shall not permit any of the proceeds of the Notes, or any facilities
financed with such proceeds, to be used in any manner that would cause any Note to
constitute a “private activity bond” within the meaning of Section 141 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”).
(c)
The City shall not permit any of the proceeds of the Notes or other
moneys to be invested in any manner that would cause any Note to constitute an

(d)
The City shall comply with the provisions of Section 148(f) of the Code
relating to the payment of certain investment earnings at periodic intervals to the
United States of America; provided, however, that such payment shall not be required to
the extent the City receives an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel (which
opinion may be given in reliance upon a ruling or rulings of the Internal Revenue
Service) to the effect that such payment is not necessary to preserve the exemption from
federal income taxes of interest on the Notes.
(e)
The City does not designates the Notes as "qualified tax-exempt
obligations" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code.
9
Section 11.

the City, and the officers, employees and agents of the City are hereby authorized to do all such
acts and things and to execute all such documents as may be necessary to carry out and
comply with the provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Undertaking as executed. Any
Authorized Officer is hereby further authorized to amend the Continuing Disclosure Undertaking
in accordance with its respective terms from time to time following its execution and delivery as
said officer shall deem necessary. In addition, an Authorized Officer is authorized to make or
cause to be made all future filings with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board with respect
to any debt obligations, all in accordance with the provisions of Securities and Exchange
Commission Rule 15c2-12(b)(5) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Resolution, the sole remedies for any failure by the
City to comply with the Continuing Disclosure Undertaking shall be the ability of the beneficial
owner of any applicable Note to seek mandamus or specific performance by court order to
cause the City to comply with its obligations under the Continuing Disclosure Undertaking.
Section 12.

.
(a)

at the same time for such purpose, shall be sufficient to pay when due the principal of,
redemption premium, if any, and interest due and to become due on said Notes on and
prior to the applicable redemption date or maturity date thereof.
(c)
As used in this Section, the term “Federal Obligations” means
(i) noncallable, direct obligations of the United States of America, (ii) noncallable and
nonprepayable, direct obligations of any agency of the United States of America, which
are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of America as to full and timely

2011 Note Issue
Project Descriptions
Construct and Improve Streets - $2,840,000
(a) New and Replacement Sidewalks - $540,000
This program totals $540,000 (General Fund - $210,000; Assessable - $330,000) to
construct new sidewalks and to replace deteriorated sidewalk and/or sidewalk with
other safety deficiencies. Included is the first year of a seven (7) year plan to
implement the Pedestrian Transportation Corridor Plan (PTCP). General Fund costs
for new and replacement sidewalk include curb ramps, sidewalk crossing city owned
property (greenbelts, parks, etc.) and other miscellaneous costs typically paid by the
city at large.
(b) Curb and Gutter Replacement and Reconstruction - $688,000
This program totals $688,000 (General Fund – 675,000; Assessable - $13,000) to
replace damaged curb and gutter as well as eliminate areas of water ponding in
conjunction with the street reconstructions and resurfacing programs. Prior to 2010
half of this program has been funded through Special Assessments against the
abutting property owners. As proposed for 2011 costs for curb replacement and
reconstruction will be paid by the city at-large, except for areas where replacement is
requested by the property owner for aesthetic reasons.
(c) Street Maintenance and Improvements - $1,042,000
This program includes funds to maintain City streets and make various other
improvements to the street network such as intersection and railroad crossing
improvements. In 2011 $1,042,000 is proposed for this program (General Fund -
$950,000; Assessable – $92,000).
(d) Major Arterials and Connecting Highways - $460,000
This category proposes a total of $460,000 in funding for 2011. There are several
projects that provide for preliminary engineering on projects. This funding provides
the local match to federal funding in most cases.
A roundabout is proposed for construction at the intersection of Milwaukee Street
and Wuthering Hills Drive. The total estimated cost is $451,000 with $395,000
provided through a Highway Safety Improvement Program grant and $55,000
from local funds.
North Main Street is scheduled for resurfacing in 2013. Total project costs are
estimated to be $1,530,000 with $1,216,000 provided in federal funding and a
local share of $314,000. Proposed for 2011 is $55,000 as the local share of the
design and engineering costs ($265,000)
Attachment II
South Pearl Street from Court Street to Rockport Road is being reconstructed.
Total project costs are estimated to be $502,000 with $152,000 provided through
the Local Road Improvement Program (LRIP) and $350,000 through local funds.
(e) Palmer Drive Bridge Repairs and Railing Replacement - $110,000
With the reconstruction of Palmer Drive it made sense to repair the bridge over
Spring Brook and replace the railing on the bridge.
Construct and Improve Storm Sewers – No new funding necessary at this time
(a) System Improvements - $505,000
System Improvements total $505,000 for enhancements to the existing storm
drainage system. Proposed projects include:
Areas within the Stormwater collection system can develop capacity deficiencies
or other problems which require enhancements to properly manage current and
projected stormwater flow. Storm Sewer enhancement projects in 2011 are
expected to cost $195,000. Planned projects include: S. Pearl Street from W.
Court Street to W. Racine Street and E. Holmes Street from Jackman Street to
Sinclair Street. Planned projects may change based upon need.
Storm sewer repair projects totaling $200,000 have been identified for 2011.
Planned projects include: Benton Avenue from Prairie Avenue to Eisenhower
Avenue; E. Holmes Street east of Ringold Street within an easement at St. Paul’s
Church; and Clark Street from Main Street to the Rock River. Projects can
change if other repairs are identified and are considered higher priority.
Rehabilitating or replacing manholes in conjunction with street resurfacing and
reconstruction projects prevents future failures of the structures after a new street
surface has been placed. In 2011 funding in the amount of $110,000 is
proposed. Some manholes only need repairs to the upper portion and other
manholes that need total replacement.
Acquire, Improve & Maintain Parks and Public Grounds - $475,000
(a) Replace Playground Equipment - $40,000
In 1996, the City began a program to renovate/replace playground equipment in
neighborhood parks. To date, renovations have been completed at 30
neighborhood parks at a cost of approximately $40,000 for each neighborhood park.
The renovation/replacement of playground equipment will continue in 2011, with
improvements proposed for Rushmore Park ($40,000).
(b) Skateboard Park and Site Restoration - $100,000
An at-grade skate park is proposed at the former batting cage location on S.
Attachment II
Jackson Street. The total project is estimated to cost $135,000 which includes
ramps and other features for skate boarders, as well as grading and seeding of this
property and other City-owned property to the north. Of the total project costs,
$35,000 will be provided through private donations and $100,000 from the City.
(c) Property Acquisitions (downtown and neighborhood) - $140,000
Major downtown and neighborhood planning efforts have recommended that the City
become more active in the acquisition of vacant and/or blighted properties in the
downtown and older residential neighborhoods. Available Community
Development Block Grant funds are not sufficient for this effort. Funding in the
amount of $140,000 is proposed for such property acquisitions.
(d) Parking Lot Reconstruction at Palmer Park - $195,000
The parking lot adjacent to Palmer Drive which serves CAMDEN Playground and the
wading pool was reconstructed along with Palmer Drive. The parking lot was
physically separated from Palmer Drive to prevent parked vehicles from backing into
travel lanes. Additional parking stalls were also created.
Acquire, Improve & Maintain Public Buildings and Grounds - $1,120,000
(a) Building Maintenance - $200,000
Each year, funds are required for minor building maintenance projects at City
facilities. In 2011, improvements totaling $200,000 are proposed for several public
buildings. The locations may include the Municipal Building, various park and
recreational facilities, and Senior Center. This is slightly less than prior years
because significant federal EECDBG funds were used to make improvements to
several facilities.
(b) Central Fire Station - $500,000
The central fire station and administrative offices (Fire Station #1) was constructed in
1957 and no longer meets the space or operational needs of the Fire Department.
Initial funding for design and site acquisition was provided in 2006 ($150,000), 2007
($350,000), and 2008 ($500,000). An additional $500,000 is proposed for 2011 to
complete the funding requirements for site acquisition and design. The estimated
construction cost is $6,500,000.
(c) Tallman House - $300,000
In 2009 an architectural firm was retained to complete a property conditions report
on the Tallman House. This report indicates that repairs in excess of $2,000,000 are
necessary and the facility. Funding in the amount of $250,000 was provided in
2009. The 2011 note issue includes $300,000 to continue funding these repairs.
(d) City Services Center Storage (design) - $50,000
Attachment II
The Parks Division has an acute need for storage of mowers and other equipment.
Much of their equipment is stored in buildings which are awaiting demolition. As
these buildings are demolished the Parks Division must find new places to store
their equipment. When the City Services was designed and constructed provisions
were made to expand the structure to the north. Funding in the amount of $50,000
is proposed to identify the storage needs of the Parks Division, as well as other
divisions, and design solutions to meet that need.
(e) Cemetery Capital - $60,000
Proposed for the 2011 note issue is funding in the amount of $60,000 for various
capital items at the Cemetery including centralizing the water distribution system,
acquiring equipment to develop a computer inventory of lots, and repairs to the
roads within the cemetery.
(f) Library Parking Lot Resurfacing - $10,000
The parking lot behind the library will be resurfaced and restriped. This lot was last
resurfaced in 1996 making it 15 years old. This does not include the lot the library
shares with JPAC.
Acquire Capital Equipment - $3,440,000
(a) Technology Enhancements - $220,000
The City will continue implementation of the Information Technology Strategic Plan.
This plan addresses improving the efficiency of City services and providing citizen
satisfaction through the use of information technology. In 2011, funds are requested
from the General Fund ($120,000), Water Utility ($50,000) and Wastewater Utility
($50,000) to obtain consulting services and purchase hardware and software for the
implementation of specific citywide information technology priority projects, as
determined by the City Manager.
(b) Library Technology Enhancements - $140,000
The library will be replacing all 102 computers for public use and all 57 computers
used by staff. All the computers being replaced are at least 5 years old. Updated
software will also be purchased and installed on the computers. In addition, 4
printers and 4 bar code scanners will be replaced, and several new security cameras
will also be added. Lastly, a Microfilm 6000 machine will be purchased to replace
our outdated microfilm reader (which we can no longer get parts to service).
(c) Golf Course Capital - $100,000
The lease on the golf course expired at the end of 2010 and the City is now
responsible for the operation and maintenance of the courses. When the lease
ended we acquired an aged fleet of maintenance equipment from the lessee.
Funding in the amount of $100,000 is included to begin replacing the maintenance
Attachment II
equipment over the next several years.
(d) Variable Frequency Drives - $430,000
This project includes installation of 17 variable frequency drives and associated
controls at Pumping Stations 4, 5, 7, 10, 12 and 14. The work includes installation of
equipment within existing motor control center structures for well and booster pumps
at each site.
(e) Biogas Energy Enhancements at Wastewater Treatment Plant - $750,000
Upgrades to the Wastewater Treatment Plant are proposed to increase the amount
of biogas produced and the ability to convert that biogas into energy.
Enhancements include gas conditioning equipment ($100,000), CNG vehicle fueling
station ($200,000), 200 KW microturbine ($300,000), CNG modifications to 5
vehicles ($40,000), high strength waste receiving station ($20,000), and other
miscellaneous costs ($90,000).
(f) Fire Vehicle Replacement - $1,000,000
Several pieces of fire equipment are scheduled for replacement including a 1997
quint with a 75’ ladder (to be replaced with a rescue pumper - $470,000), a 1990
tanker ($320,000), and a 2000 ambulance ($210,000).
(g) Public Safety Equipment - $800,000
In order to comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requirements to
narrow-band public safety radio frequencies, most public safety radio systems in the
County must be upgraded. Rock County has taken the lead on this effort and has
agreed to take over the public safety radio system in the County. This proposal
includes the costs to replace our mobile radios and upgrade the radio system prior to
the County assuming ownership.
Construct and Close Landfills - $200,000
(a) Gas Collection System Upgrades - $100,000
Current operations at the sanitary landfill have resulted in increased odors and
complaints from residents. This project makes improvements to the temporary gas
collection system to reduce odors and maintain compliance with the City’s EPA air
permit.
(b) Phase I Closure - $100,000
These funds will be utilized to install permanent landfill gas collection wells in Cell 1
of the operating landfill. These wells are being installed ahead of permanent closure
of this cell, which is scheduled for 2012. The permanent wells replace temporary
wells which were installed in 2009.
Attachment II
Construct and Extend Water Mains - $2,030,000
(a) System Improvements - $1,730,000
Undersize main replacements totaling $355,000 are proposed for 2011. This
program is needed to replace undersized water mains (replace 1-1/2 inch and 4-
inch mains with 6 inch mains) in the distribution system. There are
approximately 9 miles of undersized mains in the system. Replacement is done
in coordination with street restoration projects. Funds requested will replace
about 2,200 feet of mains.
In 2005, the Water Utility implemented a lead services replacement program
within the City. This program is similar to the iron service replacement activities
the City has historically undertaken. The actual cost of this program will vary
from year to year based upon the number of lead services under streets that are
being reconstructed in any given year. Currently, there are about 2,400 lead
services in the City. In 2011, the Water Utility proposes to replace 55 lead
services ($90,000).
Prior to street reconstruction, the condition of the water manholes and valves in
the street are evaluated. Old, deteriorated manholes are either rehabilitated or
replaced prior to the street work. This helps insure the long term integrity of the
street so that a newer street surface would not have to be dug up shortly after the
work to replace a failing manhole. For 2011, $70,000 is proposed for this
program.
The Main Reinforcement program addresses identified weaknesses in the
existing water distribution system by adding transmission mains or upgrading
distribution mains to transmission mains. In 2011, Phase II of the Blackbridge
Road main is scheduled. The total project estimate is $2,715,000 with
$1,500,000 provided in 2010 and the balance ($1,215,000) provided in 2011.

Janesville has approximately 140 miles of clay pipe in the sanitary sewer
collection system that ranges in age from 40 to 100 years. Most of the clay pipe
is structurally sound, but suffers from root intrusion and infiltration of
groundwater. Proposed for 2010 is $805,000 in funding, which will reline about 3
– 3-1/2 miles of sanitary sewer main. This is the ninth year of a multi-year
program, which reduces the potential for clogged sewers resulting from root

growth and also ensures the continued structural integrity of the clay sewers.
This is an ongoing multi-year program to prevent water inflow and infiltration into
the sanitary sewer system. This program has focused primarily on sanitary
sewer manholes in the past, but its focus has now shifted to sewer laterals. For
2011 funding in the amount of $195,000 is proposed.
