Title
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Contract with Tank Builders, Inc. for the Lake Creek Ground Storage Tank Rehabilitation 2016 Project.
Body
The City currently has three active ground-water wells that are located along Lake Creek just east of Mays Street. At this location is the Lake Creek Ground Storage Tank (GST) that was erected and placed into service in the early 70's. The GST has been rehabilitated several times during its 44 years of service. The tank shell is in very good condition as a result of the past rehabilitation efforts; however, the roof rafters have had to be replaced several times because of corrosion. It is necessary at this time to replace the tank roof. The City’s Utility team has chosen an umbrella roof design that will eliminate the interior roof rafters that allow corrosion to be a continual maintenance issue. In April 2016, the City hired HOT Inspection Services to formulate technical specifications for the bidding and construction phases of this project. The project was advertised and bid according to Attachment “A” of Section 01000 of the Project Manual contract documents.Three bids were received and opened on October 20th. The only bid conforming to the technical specifications was a bid from Tank Builders, Inc. with a bid of $389,800.
Cost: $389,800.00
Source of Funds: Self-financed water construction
Recommended Action
Staff recommends approval.
