Helwig, City Manager SUBJECT: Construction Engineering Services for Water Reservoirs at the Slade Avenue Facility PURPOSE This memorandum will provide the Mayor and members of the City 01914 Council with information to consider awarding a construction engineering services agreement for the construction of a new 2 .0 MG reservoir and repair of the 1 . 0 MG reservoir at the Slade Avenue facility. BACKGROUND This agreement will provide for the construction engineering services required in connection with the bidding and construc- tion of the new 2 .0 MG water reservoir and repairs to the existing 1 .0 MG water reservoir at the Slade Avenue facility. The Slade Avenue pumping station is the primary water supply • and pressure source to the City east of the Fox River. Three in-ground water storage reservoirs (one 2 MG and two 1 MG shown as Exhibit A) provide treated water for pumping and distribution to the eastern part of the City. The Water System Distribution Report prepared by Donohue in April 1989 concluded that the two 1 .0 MG reservoirs at Slade Avenue have minor structural problems, improper drain lines, and some spalling concrete, and repairs could be economically accomplished. One reservoir was repaired in 1992 with the construction of the Slade Avenue facility; repairs to the second reservoir are still outstanding. This report also concluded that the 2 .0 MG reservoir showed structural defi- ciencies that could not economically be repaired, and a re- r p1Acement reservoir would be required. The Black & Veatch Master Plan reviewed the Donohue conclusions and concurred in the need to demolish and replace the 2 MG reservoir. Mayor and Members of the City Council February 1, 1995 rik Page 2 Clark Dietz, Inc. , is the engineer of record who prepared the specifications and plans for this project in 1993. Therefore, the firm was asked to submit a proposal to provide the con- struction-related engineering services . COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None. FINANCIAL IMPACT The not-to-exceed agreement amount is $178, 000 . Our budget estimate for construction engineering services was $195,000 . Funds totaling $2 ,055, 000 have been allocated for this project in the 1995 water bond sale projects as budgeted in the Five- Year Financial Plan. LEGAL IMPACT None. r RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that this contract be awarded to Clark Dietz, Inc . , in the not-to-exceed amount of $178,000 to pro- vide for bidding and construction engineering and inspection services for the demolition and construction of a new 2 MG in-ground reservoir and the repair of one 1 MG at-ground reservoir.
