HomeMy WebLinkAbout9F - 2005 Lift Station Project DATE: AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: REVIEWED BY: AGENDA ITEM: DISCUSSION: DECEMBER 20, 2004 qF CRAIG ELDRED, STREETS AND UTILITIES SUPERVISOR BUD OSMUNDSON, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE STANDARD PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT WITH ENGINEERING RESOURCES, INC. TO PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR THE 2005 LIFT STATION REHABILITATION PROJECT HISTORY The purpose of this agenda item is for the City Council to consider entering into a Standard Professional Services Contract with Engineering Resources, Inc. to prepare plans and specifications for the reconstruction of four (4) lift stations and to provide construction inspection services. The standardized lift station specifications previously reviewed by the council will be used. Staff has identified the need to rehabilitate a number of lift stations in several past Capital Improvement Plans (CIP). Staff completed an audit of all the lift stations in 2003 to ascertain the status and inventory the components of each lift station. The audit has shown that there is a significant need for major renovations to a number of lift stations. Staff has put together a more comprehensive management and rehabilitation plan and schedule than what has been done in the past due to the age and condition of the majority of the lift stations. To date, we have completed major renovations to nine lift stations. After the four major renovations in 2005, only seven lift stations will still require major renovations and are scheduled to be completed over the next three years. For the 2005 Lift Station project, staff has identified four lift stations to be rehabilitated. The four lift stations identified in the 2005 CIP include: . No.4-Green Heights . No.6-Public Access (Dewitte) . No. 23-Sunset Trail . No. 29-Quaker Trail All of these lift stations are 25-30 years old and require major renovation to avoid system failures and subsequent property damage.

Generally the concrete wet wells are in good condition and do not require replacement. Staff is requesting the assistance of Engineering Resources, Inc. to prepare plans and specifications due to the magnitude of the repairs needed on four key lift stations of the city's 36 lift stations. ISSUES: Engineering Resources, Inc. submitted a proposal to prepare the plans and specifications for the 2005 lift stations and perform the construction engineering inspection for a cost not to exceed $78,850. Engineering Resources, Inc. will be using Kaeding and Associates to perform the electrical engineering work and this is included in the proposal. If authorized to move forward, Engineering Resources, Inc. and staff will complete the plans and specifications and request City Council approval at the March 7th, 2005 meeting. Bid opening and award of the project in would be in March, with completion of the project by October 1,2005. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The funding for the project will come from the Sewer Operating fund, since it is the rehabilitation of existing sewer infrastructure. Staff estimates the total cost of engineering, equipment and actual repairs to be approximately $523,000.00. The CIP has identified these lift station rehabilitation projects as a priority. ALTERNATIVES: There are two alternatives for the City Council to consider: 1. Approve a resolution that authorizes the City to enter into its standard professional services contract with Engineering Resources, Inc. to provide engineering services for a fee not to exceed $78,850. 2. Deny this item for a specific reason and provide staffwith direction. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Staff recommends adoption of Alternative No.1. ACTION REQUIRED: A motion and a second to adopt the Resolution stated above.
