INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting Council approval to authorize the ad for bid for the Water Tower No. 2
Reconditioning Project.
BACKGROUND
On October 25,2021,the City Council approved the preparation of the plans and specifications for
the Water Tower No. 2 Reconditioning Project located at 7001 Otter Lake Road. This tower was
constructed in 1996. The water tower inspection report identified several structural and coating
issues that need to be addressed. In addition,the exterior and interior dry coatings are over 24
years old and have surpassed their life expectancy. Coatings on water towers are typically
replaced every 20 years, or more frequently to protect the underlying steel surfaces from
corrosion.
This is a 14-16 week project commencing with the coordination of all wireless carrier antennae
being removed from the water tower and relocated to a temporary structure. The tower is then
curtained off, sand blasted, repairs made as needed,then re-coated inside and out. We are
hoping that this project will be completed by early summer to avoid any disruption to our water
supply.
The estimated construction cost is $1,536,000. Funding for the project is through the Water
Operating Fund.
The schedule for this project is as follows:
Authorize Preparation of Plans and Specifications October 25,2021
Order Improvement,Approve Plans and Specs,Authorize Ad for Bids January 10,2022
City Opens Bids February 8,2022
City Council Awards Contract February 14,2022
Construction Begins May,2022
