SUBJECT:
A RESOLUTION AWARDING A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT IN THE AMOUNT
OF $366,263 TO K.R. SWERDFEGER CONSTRUCTION INC., AND SETTING
FORTH $73,252.60 FOR CONTINGENCIES, FOR PROJECT 17-007 (WWAN05)
FY2017 ANNUAL MANHOLE REHABILITATION PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING
THE PURCHASING AGENT TO EXECUTE THE SAME
SUMMARY:
This Resolution awards a construction contract to K.R. Swerdfeger Construction Inc., for FY2017
Annual Manhole Rehabilitation Project. The project will place epoxy coating in manholes and
replace manholes across the City of Pueblo.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
:
None
BACKGROUND
:
During routine maintenance on the sanitary mains by the collections crew, an evaluation of the
manholes is also performed to determine the severity of deterioration. The manholes are ranked
using the National Association of Sewer Service Companies (NASSCO) evaluation criteria –
higher the ranking the worse the deterioration. Manholes for the 17-007 (WWAN05) FY2017
Annual Manhole Rehabilitation Project had to meet two requirements, be the highest ranking on
the evaluation list and not already be on a rehabilitation list for the sanitary main segment to be
replaced. To protect the public interest, these manholes require rehabilitation. Manholes will be
rehabilitated by rebuilding the wall thickness with a cementitious material and sealing with an
epoxy coating or, in more severe cases, being removed, replaced and epoxy coated.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
:
The cost of the construction project was bid at $366,263 with contingencies of $73,252.60. Funds
are available from the Sewer User Funds and have been budgeted and appropriated to Project
No. 16-049(WW1503).
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
:
Not applicable
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS
:
None
ALTERNATIVES
:
Alternative No. 1 – No Action
The Wastewater Department could take no action. The manholes would continue to deteriorate
until they eventually collapse warranting an emergency repair and possibly endangering the
public.
RECOMMENDATION
:
Approval of the Resolution.
