AGENDAITEM <br />Item No.: <br />Date: April 24, 2017 <br />Item Description: Back Up generators for Lift Stations #7 (2552 Shadywood Road) <br />and #20 (1100 Elmwood Ave) <br />Presenter: Scott Oberaigner Agenda Consent Agenda <br />Public Works Supervisor Section: <br />1. Purpose. The purpose of this action item is to gain Council acceptance of the proposals/quotes to <br />procure and install back up generators at Lift Stations #7 and #20. <br />2. Background. The City has 46 sanitary sewer lift stations and we typically add two pennanent <br />generators per year at lift stations that currently don't have a generator. By having permanent generators <br />in-place at lift stations, it provides added security in preventing sewage backups into private homes if <br />there is a power failure. <br />3. Project Scope. <br />a. LS #7 Generator. This project will provide a backup generator for this critical lift station which <br />services the sanitary sewer system south of Shoreline Drive along Shadywood Rd. <br />b. LS #20 Generator. This project will provide a backup generator for this critical lift station which <br />services the sanitary sewer system Along North Arm Drive. <br />4. Cost. The City received three quotes for generators and one quote for the associated electrical work <br />(Automatic Transfer switch). The lowest quote from a qualified contractor for Generators was ftom <br />Cummins Power Generation. The lowest Quote for electrical installation is from Gephardt Electric. Total <br />cost for both Generator projects is $55,068. <br />a.

Electrical Installation <br />Contractor <br />LS7 <br />LS 20 <br />Total Quote <br />Gephardt Electric <br />$7,200 <br />$8,250 <br />$15,450 <br />5. Funding. This project will be funded through the Sanitary Sewer Enterprise Fund. The Capital <br />Improvement Plan (CIP) programmed $75,000 for each backup generator project. The Sewer Fund <br />balance is projected to be $2,011,493 at the end of 2017. <br />6. Staff Recommendation. I recommend that Council accept the quotes from Cummins Power <br />Generation and Gephardt Electric. <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED <br />Motion to accept the quote in the amount of $39,618 from Cununins Power Generation for the provision <br />of and installation of backup Generators at Lift Stations #7 and #20 and of $15,450 from Gephardt <br />Electric f or electrical installation. <br />Prepared By: SO Reviewed By: Approved By: D5R, <br />
