Title

Authorizing the expenditure of $3,248,211 from the Water Bond Fund for the Chemical Feed Improvements Project at the Division of Water Treatment; authorizing the mayor to execute the necessary contract(s) for the design, preparation of plans and specifications, engineering, bidding, construction oversight, testing, permits, renovation, construction, appurtenances, and other related work, tasks, equipment, and materials needed; and declaring an emergency.

 

Body

SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:

As a part of the recent CIP Improvements at the Collins Park Water Treatment Plant and associated pump stations, a number of improvements have been made.  However, several systems have yet to be upgraded and refurbished including the carbon system at the Low Service Pump Station as well as the alum storage and feeding facilities at the Collins Park Water Treatment Plant.    The proposed re-appropriated monies are available from a number of projects that are a part of the CIP program that will be successfully completed for less than the original project estimate, including the Chemical Conveyance System Improvements, the Heatherdowns Pumping Station Improvements, the Residuals Handling & Dewatering Improvements, the Raw Water Intake Improvements and the Filter & Pipe Gallery Improvements.  Funding is also included from previously unappropriated bond monies.  This proposed work will complete the refurbishments and improvements to the chemical systems at Collins Park and the associated pumping stations. Ordinance 577-21 received First Reading on 11/23/2021 authorizing the appropriation of these funds into the account codes being used for this expense.
