Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT FEBRUARY 19, 2008 10A CRAIG ELDRED, STREET AND UTILITIES SUPERVISOR CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE CITY'S STANDARDIZED PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR THE 2008 LIFT STATION REHABILITATION AND LIFT STATION STANDARDIZATION PROJECTS Introduction The purpose of this agenda item is for Council to authorize execution of its Standardized Professional Services Contract with Advanced Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. (AE2S) to provide Professional Engineering Services for the 2008 Lift Station Rehabilitation and Lift Station Standardization Projects. Historv Because of the topography of the Prior Lake community, the City's sewer system relies upon 40 lift stations. In 2003, AE2S Consulting Engineers along with City staff completed an audit of all the lift stations throughout Prior Lake to ascertain the status and inventory the components of each lift station. Once completed, AE2S and staff put together a Comprehensive Management and Rehabilitation Schedule, and also instituted a Sanitary Sewer Lift Station Standard Policy. To date, 21 lift stations have been rehabilitated. Current Circumstances For the 2008 Lift Station Project, staff has identified Bay Avenue and Marlen Circle lift stations for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation includes replacement of pumps, guide rails, electrical panels, and other electrical components; wet well covers and hatches. Generally, the concrete wet wells are in good condition and do not require replacement. The lift station standardization upgrades will be completed to four lift stations, including Algrins, Wilds, Candy Cove and Watzl's. Standardization includes retro-fitting new operation controls to each of these stations to meet the City's Lift Station Standardization Policy. AE2S is the engineering consultant reviewing new development and rehabilitation of Prior Lake's future and existing lift stations. Because the City's Lift Station Design is standardized the design requirements are very specific. The City Council appointed AE2S as the City's Lift Station Consultant because of their expertise and experience working with the City's sanitary sewer system. On February 4,2008 the City Council appointed AE2S as the City's specialty consultant for Lift Station Services.
