FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 20, 2024
SUBJECT: RATIFICATION OF RAW WATER VALVE PURCHASE
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider the ratification of the emergency purchase and
installation of a raw water valve from Rangeline Utility Services LLC.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Utility Enterprise Fund in the amount of
$39,151.
BACKGROUND: This ratification authorizes the installation of an 18" valve by Rangeline
Utility Services LLC. The 18" water line that provides untreated water to
the Water Treatment Plant developed a leak on Sunday, January 21. A
new 18" valve was needed to isolate the damaged part of the waterline.
In addition, this valve will allow for a redundant feed to the Water
Treatment Plant. Untreated water is normally supplied to the Water
Treatment Plant though the raw water pump station. With this new valve
installed, in an emergency situation, untreated water can be supplied
through the 18" pipe from the golf course pump station to the Water
Treatment Plant.
Rangeline is the contractor that is currently working on the installation of
the 30" valves in the raw water pump station approved by Council on
November 7, 2023.
The installation of the 18" valve has been completed and invoiced at the
amount of $39,151 for mobilization, labor, materials, and equipment.
Staff recommends approval.
