SUMMARY:
This Resolution ratifies and approves the award of a construction contract to K.R.
Swerdfeger Construction, Inc. for emergency sanitary sewer point repairs at 5824 Mark
Twain Ln.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None
BACKGROUND:
While the Wastewater Department collection crew was performing a routine inspection
of sewer mains, they found a high-water level in the downstream manhole of the sewer
main near 5824 Mark Twain Lane. After the water was removed from the manhole, a
television crew was sent out to inspect the main and they discovered an infiltration
gusher in the downstream manhole as well as infiltration around the cap of the stub-out
pipe. An emergency repair was performed to repair these defects to avoid the pipes
being flooded and possible sanitary sewer overflows.
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 K.R. Swerdfeger Construction, Inc. was the lowest bidder and
accepted the work.
The cost breakdown for the project is as follows:
Sanitary Sewer Replacement-related
Total: $ 3354.06 100%
Surface Improvement Related
Total: $ 0.00 0%
Grand Total: $ 3354.06 100%
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).
