SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION RATIFYING AN EMERGENCY CONSTRUCTION
CONTRACT IN THE AMOUNT OF $167,777.96 WITH K.R.
SWERDFEGER CONSTRUCTION, INC., FOR EMERGENCY STORM
SEWER POINT REPAIR AND $43,062.31 FOR EMERGENCY
SANITARY SEWER POINT REPAIR ON COURT STREET BETWEEN

PROJECT NO. 20-059 (WWAN03) AND APPROVING THE

SUMMARY:
This Resolution ratifies and approves the award of a construction contract to K.R.
Swerdfeger Construction, Inc., for emergency storm sewer and sanitary sewer point
repairs on Court Street between 8th Street and 9th Street.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The Stormwater Utility was notified that there was a pipe backup in the Pueblo County
Detention Center (PCDC). A televised inspection of the stormwater infrastructure
revealed a broken lateral connecting to the PCDC. Additional televised inspection of the
stormwater main on Court Street between 8th Street and 9th Street showed extensive
damage to the stormwater main as a result of directional boring operations performed
by Black Hills Energy for an electrical service line. An emergency point repair was
required to repair the defective stormwater pipes, manhole, and the appurtenant
surface repairs.
Additionally, when the Wastewater Department was made aware of the stormwater
emergency repair, the sanitary sewer mains were evaluated due to the proximity of the
repair and minimal crossing clearance. The sanitary sewer main crossing the storm
main to be repaired was badly deteriorated and would need to be removed and
replaced to avoid damaging a newly placed storm pipe.
The bid summary sheet with the unit prices for the estimated work performed by K.R.
Swerdfeger Construction, Inc., and the change order for the project are attached. This
work was performed under the 2020-2022 Storm Sewer Point Repair Ordinance #9755
