Title
Consider and take action on a resolution authorizing an agreement with Faith Utilities, LLC for the urgent replacement of a 36-inch valve at the Calder Rd Booster Pump Station (BPS) in an amount not to exceed $83,500 (Director of Public Works)
Background:
Approval of this item will authorize an agreement with Faith Utilities, LLC for the urgent replacement of a 36-inch valve at the Calder Rd BPS from March 11, 2025 to June 10, 2025 in an amount not to exceed $83,500.
The 36-inch isolation valve for ground storage tank (GST) No. 2 at the Calder Rd BPS is failing and impeding staff’s ability to perform annual GST maintenance activities. The repair is urgent due to the lead time on delivery of the valve and its impact on the short window of opportunity to install the valve before seasonal water demand increases. Calder Rd BPS is a critical water supply take-point and serves 80 percent of the City’s service area west of S. Hwy 3. GST No. 2 is needed to ensure regulatory compliant drinking water delivery during high-demand periods from May through September.
