Background The City's Capital Improvement Program identifies rehabilitation work for Lift Station No. 10 located near the intersection of Cleveland Avenue and County Road E2. The lift station has been in service for 31 years in the current configuration. Several improvements have been identified, including the potential need to replace aging pumps, check valves, air release valves and control panel. This lift station also encounters problems with sewer flow backing up into the upstream manhole due to the bottom elevation of the lift station wet well having minimal elevation drop from the upstream gravity sewer. Staff negotiated a proposal with the consulting firm Bolton & Menk to assist with the rehabilitation of Lift Station No. 10 as provided in Attachment A. Seth Peterson, the project principal with Bolton & Menk, has been involved with past lift station projects in Arden Hills over the past 9 years, including Lift Station No. 11 and Lift Station No. 13. Mr. Peterson is knowledgeable of the City's station configuration standards and has provided quality work in the past. The one other consultant with past experience working on the City's lift stations is not available to provide design services. Page 1 of 2
