REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br /> Date: 5/14/2012 <br /> Item No.: <br />7.d <br />Department Approval City Manager Approval <br />Item Description: Award Contract for Reconstruction of Josephine Sanitary Sewer Lift <br />Station <br />B <br />ACKGROUND <br />1 <br />Staff has identified a need to replace the Josephine sanitary sewer lift station due to lack of <br />2 <br />capacity to accommodate the additional residential homes being constructed as a part of the <br />3 <br />Josephine Woods Pulte Homes project. This lift station is located at the intersection of <br />4 <br />Josephine Rd. and Fernwood St. This lift station was originally constructed in the late 1950’s <br />5 <br />and is in our capital replacement plan for reconstruction. <br />6 <br />Since this station is in need of replacement and requires increased capacity for the additional <br />7 <br />new homes, we required participation from Pulte Homes in their Public Improvements Contract. <br />8 <br /> It states the Developer shall be responsible for a proportionate share of the actual cost to design <br />9 <br />and reconstruct the Josephine lift station to provide sanitary service to their property. The <br />10 <br />Developer’s proportionate share is based on the following: The lift station currently serves 26 <br />11 <br />properties. The Josephine Woods development added 23 properties that will rely on this lift <br />12 <br />station for sanitary sewer service. Therefore the Developer shall be responsible for 47% of the <br />13 <br />cost of designing and reconstructing the new lift station. If there is a difference between the <br />14 <br />estimated cost and the actual cost, the actual cost shall control. <br />15 <br />The City retained Foth Infrastructure and Engineering to develop plans and specifications needed <br />16 <br />to reconstruct this lift station. Bids were received on May 2, 2012. Overall Best Value <br />17 <br />procurement was used for this project.
