CONSENT
AGENDA ITEM: Approve Plans and Specifications and Order Advertisement for Bids for the Well
No. 5 Pumphouse
SUBMITTED BY: Jack Griffin, City Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Kristina Handt, City Administrator Marty Powers, Public Works Director
Chad Isakson, Assistant City Engineer
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council approve the Plans and Specifications and order the
Advertisement for Bids for the Well No. 5 Pumphouse?
BACKGROUND: On September 17, 2019 the City Council ordered the preparation of the plans and
specifications for construction of the Well No. 5 Pumphouse in Tana Ridge Park. This project constructs
the building and installs the mechanical, electrical, and chemical feed systems to operate municipal well 5
being constructed under a separate contract. The City of Lake Elmo has been working with the MN-DNR
and MPCA to replace the lost capacity for Well No. 1 through the development and construction of
Production Well No. 5 to be located in Tana Ridge Park. The improvements include Production Well No.
5, Pumphouse No. 5, and Well No. 5 Connecting Watermain Improvements.
PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: The plans and specifications have been completed for the
improvements and are ready to be advertised for contractor bids. A bid date has been scheduled for June 2,
2020. Once received, bids will be reviewed by staff and a recommendation for awarding a contract will be
prepared for council consideration at a future council meeting, tentatively scheduled for June 16, 2020.
FISCAL IMPACT: Total Project Costs are funded 90% through a Minnesota-3M 2018 Settlement Fund
Grant. The remaining 10% city cost share is funded through the Water Core Fund. Approval of this motion
does not commit the council to the project costs. Once contractor bids are received, the actual construction
costs will be known and the council will be asked to consider entering into a contract to complete the work.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City Council approve, as part of the consent
agenda, a resolution approving the plans and specifications and ordering the ad for bids for Well No. 5
Pumphouse. If removed from the consent agenda, the recommended motion for the action is as follows:
“Move to approve Resolution No. 2020-046, approving the plans and specifications and ordering the
advertisement for bids for the Well No. 5 Pumphouse.”
ATTACHMENTS:
1. Resolution approving the plans and specifications and ordering the advertisement for bids for the
Well No. 5 Pumphouse.
2. Location Map.
3. Project Schedule.
4. Advertisement for Bids.
5. Site Plan and Pumphouse Renderings.
