REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION C/;^ <? <br />DATE: September^lS5^997 <br />ITEM NO,13> <br />Department Approval: <br />Name Gregory A. Ga[q)a <br />Title Director of Public Services <br />Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: <br />Engineer ’s Report <br />Item Description: Golf Course Irrigation System Pump Station Installation <br />A contract was recently awarded for the installation of an irrigation system at the municipal golf <br />course. This contract for the irrigation system was limited to installation of the pipe and sprinklers <br />and furnishing, and installing the pun^ station. A buildmg enclosure for the pump station and <br />installation of the electric service to the site was not included in the contract. More favorable bids <br />are obtained if the contact is limited to the items that irrigation contractors specialize in. <br />Additional speciality items add complexity to the project, require subcontractors, and result in <br />higher bids. General practice with irrigation systems is that these other items are completed by <br />the owner as separate projects. The approval for these items was not obtained at the time the <br />contract was awarded. This was an oversight on my part. <br />We have obtained quotations for the completion of these additional items; a concrete slab <br />foundation for the pump station building, a 12' x 16' prefabricated wooden building for the pump <br />station, and installation of the electric service to the pump station and well. The pump station <br />requires a 12' x 12' building, an additional 4' wide roofed porch is included on the front of the <br />building to provide a location for a rest station and pop machine. This building is located near the <br />center of the course and would be an ideal location for a rest station. The installation of a rest <br />station has been envisioned for many years in the long range plans for the golf course. Costs for <br />these improvements are listed for below. <br />Johnson & Peterson Construction, Concrete Slab $925.00 <br />Redi-Bilt Buildings, 12 x 16' Prefabricated Wood Building <br />NSP, Overhead 3 Phase Electric Service Transformer <br />All Star Electric, 480 V 3 Phase & 120/240V Service <br />for Pump Station and Well from NSP Transformer <br />$2992.65 <br />$1,200.00 <br />$7,800.00 <br />w
