HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 10 - Wastewater Treatment Plant Headworks MEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: JUNE 19, 2012
SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT—WASTEWATER
TREATMENT PLANT HEADWORKS FACILITY AND CHANGE
ORDER#
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council consider awarding the construction contract for the Wastewater Treatment
Plant Headworks Facility to Legacy Contracting, L.P. dba (Control Specialist Services
L.P.) in the amount of $2,757,600.00, approving Deduct Change Order #1 to the
contract in an amount of (-$262,507.00) resulting in a revised contract cost of
$2,495,093.00, authorize staff to execute said contract and change order, and take any
necessary action.
FUNDING SOURCE:
Funds are programmed in the Wastewater Permanent Capital Maintenance Fund
Balance (PCMF) account number 200-43370-534-0.
BACKGROUND:
The Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Inflow and Collection structure (Headworks)
has reached its design life and has begun to fail. The facility was constructed in the
1950s with two major expansions undertaken 14 years ago.
Over time, the Headworks structure has deteriorated due to age and highly corrosive
conditions typically experienced at a WWTP entry point. Hydrogen sulfide has
deteriorated the concrete causing structural failure. Significant facility replacement and
upgrade is necessary to continue to function and comply with updated TCEQ
regulations.
Bids were opened on April 19, 2012 with seven bids received as follows:
Legacy Contracting $2,757,600
RAMA Enterprises $2,856,750
Archer Western Contractors $2,983,000
Red River Construction Company $2,999,300

Gracon Construction $3,151,200
Dake Construction $3,265,750
Graham Construction $4,166,100
The bids were above the engineer's estimate for this project with the increases primarily
in the electronic controls and circuitry.
Staff has reviewed the bid and negotiated a reduction in the contract price by eliminating
part of the electronics and circuitry that can be added later by staff as time and funds
permit.
This reduced contract price is reasonable and should be accepted to allow the
construction to proceed.
Staff recommends approval.
