AGENDA ITEM <br />Prepared By: SO Reviewed By: Approved By: DJR <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1. Purpose. The purpose of this action item is to gain approval to proceed with procurement of the <br />Sewer Televising system. <br /> <br />2. Background. Currently the Utility Department has to contract out or borrow equipment from other <br />cities in order to inspect our sewer and stormwater pipes. With the Point of Sale Sewer Service Program <br />beginning in January the department will needs its own equipment in order to ensure timely inspections. <br /> <br />3. Project Scope. Procure a televising system for inspection of sanitary sewer and stormwater pipes. <br /> <br />4. Cost. The City received three quotes, listed below. The recommended quote for a televising system <br />was from Ferguson Water works for $12,509.55. <br /> <br />Company System Cost <br />Ferguson Waterworks Rigid- Push Camera $12,509.55 <br />Insight Vision Opticam- Push Camera $ 7,731.00 <br />MacQueen Equipment Group Envirosight –Tractor Camera system $109,185.00 <br /> <br />5. Funding. This project will be funded through the Equipment Fund. The Capital Improvement Plan <br />(CIP) budgeted $100,000 for televising equipment. <br /> <br />6. Staff Recommendation. I recommend approval of the purchase of the Push Camera system from <br />Ferguson Water works. Staff tested all of the systems and the Rigid system from Ferguson had the <br />capabilities best in line with the city’s needs. One of its key selling points was its ability to negotiate <br />sharp corners which will be needed in sewer service line inspections when accessing form cleanouts. It <br />also has a Bluetooth capability and a better screen than the less expensive model tested. At present we <br />are not ready to recommend procurement of a mainline tractor type camera system. <br /> <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED <br />Motion to approve procurement of Rigid Sewer Televising camera system from Ferguson Water works <br />for $12,509.55. <br /> <br />Item No.: 5 Date: October 26, 2020 <br />Item Description: Pipe Televising System Purchase <br />Presenter: Scott Oberaigner <br />Public Works Supervisor Agenda <br />Section: <br />Consent Agenda
