SUMMARY:
This Resolution ratifies and approves award of a construction contract to Parker
th
Excavating, Inc. for emergency sanitary sewer point repairs at 624 E. 4 St.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None
BACKGROUND:
While performing a routine inspection of sewer mains, the Wastewater Department
th
collection crew discovered a large joint offset in the sewer main near 624 E. 4 St. This
defect will further deteriorate the pipe, block the flow and increase the chance of
immediate backup in the main. An emergency repair was performed to fix the joint
offset, so a backup would not occur.
The repair work was performed under the Sanitary Sewer Point Repair multi-year
contract under which three contractors were qualified via competitive bid. An estimate
was prepared, and Parker Excavating was the lowest bidder and accepted the work.
The cost breakdown for the project is as follows:
Sanitary Sewer Replacement-related
Total: $ 10,771.92 85%
Surface Improvement Related
Total: $ 1,900.00 15%
Grand Total: $ 12,671.92 100%
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Funding for this project came from the sanitary sewer rehabilitation budget funded by
the Sewer User Fund. Funding was available and had been budgeted, appropriated,
and allocated to Project No. 20-059 (WWAN03).
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
Not applicable
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None
ALTERNATIVES:

emergency condition
