March 27, 1984 <br />Page Two <br />6A. Controls - The existing electrical mechanical level <br />transmission and receiving equipment has become obsolete <br />and difficult to service. Solid State equipment should be <br />installed in the near future. <br />6B. Pumping Control Timer - If we decide to pump the wells on <br />off peak hours, the installatin of time of day, seven day <br />programmable equipment for pumpig control will be <br />necessary. <br />7. City Hall Parking Lot Power Receptacles - The estimated <br />cost of installing power receptacles with circuit breakers <br />=1 associated wiring to provide electricity for tank <br />heaters on 6 vehicles is $4,000.00. On Monday mornings <br />after cold weekends, the City vehicles have been hard to <br />start. <br />8. Pumping Drinking Water - The City is spending too much <br />money on eletricity for pumping drinking water. The City <br />can save approximately $14,000.00 per year by pumping at <br />off peak hours. Pumping wells at off peak times is a <br />viable way to save money. However, the City should make <br />sure that the fire insurance rate is not dropped due to <br />this change. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Oork on Well No. 4 should not be done <br />until the water quality problem is corrected. Solving problem 7 <br />does not seem cost effective. We recommend solving problems 1, <br />2, 3, 4 and 6B (minus well #4 work) immediately. We recommend <br />solicitng quotes from electricians to correct problems 1 and 4. <br />Staff can correct problem 2. Specifications should be prepared <br />to solve problems 3 and 6B. <br />1) Estimated cost for problems 1 and 4 is 510,500, <br />2) Estimated cost for problem 2 is UM <br />3) Estimated construction cost for problems 3 and 6B is <br />$7,900. <br />Plans, specifications and contract administration for <br />problems 3 and 6B is $4,000. <br />Estimated total cost for problems 3 and 6B is 511,900. <br />-> We recommend solving problems 5 and 6A 'if money is <br />available. Estimated construction cost is $34,800, <br />estimated design and contract administration is $10,000 for <br />an estimated total cost of 44,800. <br />1) If problems 3, 5, 6A and 6B can a designed and bid <br />together, the estimated construction cost would be $42,700, <br />estimated design and contract administration would be <br />$12,000 for a total estimated cost of 54 700. <br />2) The estimated total cost to solve problems 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, <br />6A and 6B is $66,i00, ' <br />SWT/bc <br />
