SWERDFEGER CONSTRUCTION, INC., AND SETTING FORTH $37,500 FOR CONTINGENCIES, FOR PROJECT NO. 13-015 (WWAN01), FY2013 SOUTH PUEBLO BOULEVARD AND LEHIGH AVENUE SANITARY SEWER REHABILITATION AND AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASING AGENT TO EXECUTE THE SAME ISSUE Should the City Council award a construction contract in the amount of $188,008 to K.R. Swerdfeger Construction, Inc., for the FY2013 South Pueblo Boulevard and Lehigh Avenue Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation? RECOMMENDATION Approve this Resolution. BACKGROUND The Wastewater Department needs to remove and replace the manhole at the northeast corner of the intersection of South Pueblo Boulevard and Lehigh Avenue and the attached sewer mains. The manhole does not have proper fall from the in pipe to the out pipe and does not allow the wastewater to flow through. This manhole collects grease from the upstream restaurants and causes maintenance problems and potential blockages. Also, sewer mains connected to the manhole have significant sags. To protect the public interest these mains and manhole require rehabilitation. A site map and bid summary are attached. The total cost of the project is estimated at $225,508, including contingencies. FINANCIAL IMPACT Funding for this project will be taken from the Sewer User Fund. Funding is available and was appropriated in the 2013 budget for Project No. 13-015 (WWAN01).
