AGENDA ITEM <br />Prepared By: SO Reviewed By: Approved By:RJO <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1. Purpose. The purpose of this action item is to accept the proposal/quotes to procure and install a <br />backup generator at Lift Station #15. <br /> <br />2. Background. The City has 45 sanitary sewer lift stations. By having permanent generators in-place at <br />lift stations, it provides added security in preventing sewage backups into private homes if there is a <br />power failure. This year’s project will bring a generator to the last critical lift stations on our list. <br /> <br />3. Project Scope. This project will provide a 36kW backup generator for lift station 15 which services <br />the sanitary sewer system west of Forest Lake Drive. <br /> <br />4. Cost. The City received two quotes for generators and two quotes for the associated electrical work. <br />The lowest quote from a qualified contractor for Generators was from Modern Power Solutions for $12,750 <br />and electrical work from Holton Electric Contractors for $2,940. Total cost for the contracted portion of <br />the project is $ 15,690. <br /> <br />a.
