t c- . . <br /> COUNCIL COMMUNICATION FORM <br /> Engineering & Infrastructure Memorandum <br /> NO. 2003-08 <br /> March 6, 2003 <br /> TO: Honorable Mayor Howley and City Council <br /> FROM: Steve Garman, City Manager , <br /> Stephen Swanson, P.E., Director of Engineering & Infrastruct <br /> Matthew C. Newell, P.E., City Engineer <br /> SUBJECT: Miscellaneous Sanitary Sewer Improvements, City Project 2003-31 <br /> SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: <br /> It is recommended by staff that the City Council approve the attached resolution awarding the <br /> contract for Miscellaneous Sanitary Sewer Improvements, City Project 2003-31, to Bodine <br /> Services, Inc., as the lowest, responsible bidder in the amount of$52,515.00, and that the Mayor <br /> be authorized to execute the contract, and the City Clerk to attest. <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> The Miscellaneous Sanitary Sewer Improvements project involves the following work: <br /> • Installing new manholes on existing sewers to improve access for cleaning and inspection. <br /> This will be done at locations where the distance between manholes exceeds the capabilities <br /> of the City's cleaning equipment and at the ends of the sewers where manholes were not <br /> originally installed and access is needed. <br /> • Replacing existing manholes that have deteriorated to a poor condition or have undersized <br /> access openings. This is to correct inflow/infiltration problems and improve accessibility for <br /> personnel and cleaning equipment. <br /> • Replacing short segments (less than 100 feet) of existing sewer that have failed as the result <br /> of a collapse, severe cracking, settlement or displacement. <br /> This work is necessary to maintain the integrity of the City's sanitary sewer system and its ability <br /> to maintain service to the residents of the City. <br />
