title

Approval of the Final Contract with McClure and Sons Inc. of Mill Creek, WA for the Base Bid Amount of $347,091, Plus or Minus Change Orders and Bid Items Increases or Decreases, Resulting in a Final Contract Amount of $304,355, and Accept Construction of Sodium Hypochlorite Improvements Project, Project No. 20022023

 

OVERVIEW STATEMENT:

recommendation

Water from the City’s five drinking water wells is chlorinated using hypochlorite generation units that were installed between 2001 and 2009. Earlier this year, it was determined that these units have reached the end of their useful life and it is no longer cost-effective to repair them. Some individual components of the present units are more expensive than the cost to replace the entire unit. It was determined that it would be most cost effective to replace them all at once to achieve economies of scale. The project began as a maintenance project but after defining the scope of the replacement project it was determined that the installation would need to follow the Capital Improvement Program project requirements.
