Please include the following item on the City Commission consent agenda for consideration at the March 16, 2004 meeting:
Kaw West Hills Pump Replacement
The 2004 Capital Improvements includes funds for improvements related to the water treatment plants. Bid quotes were received March 2, 2004 for improvements to replace the West Hills high service pump at the Kaw water treatment plant. The upper pump casting failed in 2003 and specifications were completed by Black and Veatch for a replacement pump. The bid quotes from area contractors included:
Layne Western - $ 31,750.00
CAS Construction - $ 38,790.00
BRB Contractors - $ 50,600.00
Blaze Mechanical - $ 61,555.00
Black and Veatch recommended the low bid from Layne Western in the amount of $31,750. Staff concurs with the recommendation.
We are requesting approval from the City Commission to issue a purchase order to Layne Western in the amount of $31,750 and authorize the City Manager to execute a contract for the work to replace the West Hills pump at the Kaw water treatment plant.
Thank you for your consideration of this request. Please let me know if you have any questions.
