HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 18 - Bluffs Lift StationMEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: JUNE 7, 2022
SUBJECT: INSTALLATION AND REPAIR OF GENERATOR AND TRANSFER
SWITCH FOR THE BLUFFS LIFT STATION
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider approval for the additional work to complete the
installation and repair of the generator and transfer switch for the Bluffs lift
station from Carlisle Power System, Inc. for the Public Works Department.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Utility Enterprise Fund for a total amount not to
exceed $24,769.
BACKGROUND: The original work approved by the City Council on February 15, 2022
included repair and installation of generator and transfer switch at the
Bluffs lift station.
This additional purchase is for a new transfer switch and transformer for
the Bluffs lift station. The City's current transfer switch that was to be
repurposed could not be repaired. The repurposed generator also
requires the installation of a transformer to adjust the voltage for the lift
station pumps.
Carlisle Power System submitted the lowest responsive and responsible
quote meeting specifications for the initial repair and installation. The
additional repair pricing from Carlisle Power System was reviewed by staff
and considered fair and reasonable.
Staff recommends approval.
