SUMMARY:
This Resolution ratifies and approves award of a construction contract to Parker

PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None
BACKGROUND:
While the Wastewater Department collection crew was performing routine cleaning, the
cleaning head and approximately 100 feet of hose became stuck in a hole in the pipe
and broke off. An emergency point repair was performed to remove the cleaning
equipment, so a backup would not occur.
The repair work was performed under the Sanitary Sewer Point Repair multi-year
contract under which two 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: $ 6,831.00 100%
Surface Improvement Related
Total: $ 0.00 0%
Grand Total: $ 6,831.00 100%
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. 24-033 (WWAN03) Emergency Point Repair.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:

STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
