A new lift station is proposed to replace the existing lift station, which was constructed in 1970. In 1994, the City prepared plans and specifications to construct a new lift station and rejected the bids due to the high contract prices received. The City also initiated a project in 1998 to replace this lift station but terminated the process due again to estimated costs and funding constraints. Bids were also received and subsequently rejected due to high costs in August of 2002. The low bid received at that time was $368,473.00. The waste water flow volumes that enter the existing lift station have continually increased and the lift station needs to be replaced in order to operate in a safe and efficient manner consistent with current design standards. The pumps in the station have to operate much more frequently each hour than desired. The station also has very little storage, which causes the sanitary sewer to be surcharged. As with the earlier project, staff is proposing to construct a new lift station consisting of a wet well and submersible pumps on the east side of Black Duck Drive within the unimproved Captains Place right -of -way. This will allow the existing lift station to remain in service as the new one is constructed. Additionally, the improvements have been designed to minimize disruption of Black Duck Drive. Directional boring of new pipe under Black Duck Drive, into an existing manhole and wet well, will eliminate the need to open cut the Street. Short, Elliott, Hendrickson, Inc. (SEH), is the engineer for this project. The project will be funded from the City's Trunk Area and Unit Fund and is included in the draft Five Year Capital Improvement Plan for construction this year. Staff is recommending that the plans and specification be approved and that authorization be granted for advertisement of bids. S OPTIONS: 1. Return to staff for further review. 2.
