At the April 7th meeting, City Council approved hiring WSB and Associates to provide professional engineering services for the 2003 Lift Station Rehabilitation. Staff has identified the need to rehabilitate a number of lift stations in the 2002 and 2003 Capital Improvement Plan. Staff has been working on an audit of all the lift stations in the past year to ascertain the status and inventory the components of each lift station. This has shown that there is a significant need for major renovations to a number of lift stations. Staff is trying to 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. On March 17,2003, the City Council and staff had a workshop to discuss the status of the City's lift stations and the process to standardize the major components of the stations, in an effort to maximize the efficiency of our component inventory and to deter costs long term. On April 7, 2003, the City Council approved a contract with WSB & Associates to prepare plans and specifications for the rehabilitation of six (6) lift stations. The approval of the plans and specifications is the next step in the process to improve the lift stations and our sanitary sewer system. The six lift stations we are recommending to be completed in 2003 are: · No.3 on Franklin Trail · No.5 on Sycamore · No.7 near Lakers · No. 8 on Condons . No. 17 on 1 50th Street · No. 24 on Lime Road 1 16QOO:tIfu!~~s}t.;~~~~1,~~~~[YMtmq~t'a>~~WaWdpt'anRhJ~52p447-4230 / Fax (952) 447-4245 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER These lift stations all require major rehabilitation including replacement of pumps, guide rails, electrical panels, other electrical components and panels, wet well covers and hatches. The Sycamore station is proposed to be totally rebuilt in a different location. It currently is very close to a house and the piping to it needs to be relocated. The Franklin station is one of our larger stations serving a large area north of CSAH 21 including the Cardinal Ridge and Brooksville Hills neighborhoods. The Lakers station is another one of our larger lift stations and has two other lift stations pumping to it. The Lime station is another large lift station which is fed by two other lift stations. Three of the lift stations, Franklin, Lakers, and Lime, are proposed to be connected to the City Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system. This computerized system will enable staff to respond to failures faster, and know a little more about what the failure is. Lime and Franklin are proposed to have permanent stand-by electrical generators constructed with the rehabilitation of the lift stations. If authorized to move forward, staff would set the bid date for June 30th, 2003, and award the contract on July 7th, 2003. The completion of the rehabilitation project would be approximately November 2003. 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 and actual repairs to be approximately $665,000; $115,000 in engineering fees and $550,000 in construction costs. ALTERNATIVES: The alternatives for the City Council to consider are as follows: 1. Approve a resolution approving the plans and specifications and authorizing advertisement for bids for the 2003 Lift Station Rehabilitation, City Project Number 03-05. 2. Table this agenda item for a specific reason. 3. Deny this agenda item and provide staff with direction. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Staff recommends adoption of Alternative No.1. A motion and a second to adopt the Resolution stated above.
