iv TO: Mayor and City Council 410 FROM: Public Works Foreman Ulrich DATE: June 27, 1990 SUBJECT: GROVELAND LIFT STATION CONTROL PANEL You may recall that when we repaired the pumps at Groveland lift station, I mentioned that the control panel was also in need of replacement; so, here it is! ! ! ! ! We have receive two bids for the new panel and installation. Consolidated Electric has bid a control panel, but they do not have the capability of providing the computer telemetry to adapt to the software we are currently using with the water control system. Therefore, we have to add a remote terminal unit (RTU) to their unit to monitor the lift station. Automatic System has a complete unit that will operate the pumps as well as provide us with monitoring capabilities . It is my opinion that we should stay with one complete unit by one vendor, rather than fit two separate components together. We have $12,000.00 budgeted for this purpose, although approximately $23,914 .50 (includes a 10%, $2,174. 00 contingency) will be needed. Our 730-4122-515 Account is where this type of expenditure is budgeted. The Reserve for • Repair Account has approximately $75,000.00 in it for future repairs. We are requesting that $12,000.00 be transferred to this year's budget to accommodate this repair. Bids received are as follows: Consolidated Electric $ 5,848 .00 (Add Monitoring Equipment) 8,583. 00 Microtel Dialer/RTU 2,295 .00 TOTAL $16,726 .00 Automatic Systems $ 6,462 .50 Monitoring Equipment 8,583.00 Microtel Dialer/RTU 2,295 . 00 TOTAL $17,340 .50 Installation on either system $ 4,400.00 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends award to Automatic Systems for the replacement of Groveland lift station control panel for $23,914 .50 ($17,340.50 + $4,400.00 installation + $2, 174 . 00 project contingency) to be charged to Sewer Account 730-4122-515 and $12,000.00 to be transferred from the Reserve for Repair Account to 730-4122-515 . •
