The panel and control components are from 1991 and parts are difficult to find. The pumps at <br />the lift station were upgraded in 2014 as part of the Groveland Lift Station improvement project. <br />Council approved an Engineering Design Service Agreement with AE2S at the March 25th meeting. <br />AE2S completed the final design and sent out for bidding the proposed upgrades; bids were due on <br />July 26, 2019. <br />Discussion: <br />Staff received three bids for the Bronson Lift Station Panel upgrade project. The lowest responsible <br />bid received was by O'Neill Electric Inc., for a total cost of $107,269.00. Other bids received were from <br />Killmer Electric Company for $114,300.00 and Premier Electrical Corporation for $182,175.00. <br />AE2S has reviewed the bids and is recommending O'Neil Electric Inc. for the project. Staff also <br />received a proposal from Advanced Engineering and Environmental Service (AE2S) to perform the <br />necessary programing of the new panel and controls into the City's SCADA system at a cost of <br />$9,500.00. The project cost for the Bronson Lift Station Upgrades would be $116,769.00. <br />Strategic Plan Strategy/Goal: Maintain and Plan for Infrastructure Improvements. <br />Financial Impact: No Financial Impact to the 2019 Budget. Sanitary Sewer, account 730-4832-7050, <br />has $166,000.00 budgeted for these improvements. <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends that the Council authorize a contract for the Bronson Lift Station upgrades to O'Neill <br />Electric for $107,269.00 and authorize AE2S to program the new panel into the current SCADA system <br />at a cost of $9,500.00. Public Works Staff is also recommending a 7% contingency of $8,173.83 for <br />any unforeseen issues during this project upgrade. The total project cost for the Bronson Lift station <br />upgrade will not exceed $124,942.83. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />� .:. / -_: <br />�l <br />Don Peterson, Public Works Director <br />The Mounds View Visior_ <br />A Thriving Desirable Community <br />
