BID DISCUSSION -This purchase will be used to replace equipment that has been in service since the
water production plant was built in 1958
The consequences of not replacing the units will be continued high maintenance and possible failure of
units. Failure could result in sludge build-up in the basin resulting in taste and odor problems, reduced
water quality, and possible failure during high use periods.
EXPENDITURE -Not to exceed $280,310 00
M/WBE - A waiver of the M/1IVBE requirement was requested by Purchasing since no M/VVBE vendor
provides the goods and/or services requested
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION
The Director of Fiscal Services certifies that upon approval and completion of recommendation 1, and
adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current capital budget,
as appropriated, of the Water Capital Project Fund
