Gappa Title Director of Public Services Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: Public Services Director’s Report Item Description: Approve Rehabilitation o*f Lift Station ^11 Partenwood Road Lift Station Number 27. which is located at the end of Partenwood Road, w as constructed in 1973. The top of the station is set too low and during heavy r.''ins water ponds on top of the station resulting in stormwater flow leaking into the lift station contributing to the City's I&I problem. Tliis station also has Model 3110 Flygt pumps which are not being manufactured anymore, so everv' year it is more expensive and difficult to repair and service the pumps. Over the last several years, we have been working on a program to upgrade the.se older lift station pumps to recent model pumps. The original control panel in this station is nearing the end of its service life and also does not have any room in the panel to add SCADA to this lift station. The most practical and economical solution would to complete a project to raise the top of the lift station, install new access covers, upgrade to Model 3127 Flygt pumps with a new guide rail system, and install a new control panel with provisions for the future installation of u SCADA system module. Our recommendation is for acceptance of the quotation for rehabilitation of Lift Station Number 27 from Flectric Pump. Minneapolis Minnesota in the amount of $33,200. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED; Approve rehabilitation of Lift Station Number 27 by Electric Pump Inc.. Minneapolis. Minnesota at a total cost of $33,200 to be funded from the year 2004 Sewer Fund Capital Outlay Budget with approval of a budget adjustment to reflect tliis expenditure. \
