Body
FUNDING SOURCE:
Water Fund
PURPOSE:
To consider award of a bid for the Rehabilitation of Water Well 9 (Contract 500635) with Mike’s Drilling, LLC, per City Code §§ 3.10.010.2 (A.R.S. Title 34) and 3.10.030.1.
BACKGROUND:
Water Well 9 is one of the water sources that supplies water to the water treatment plant. Being one of the larger producing wells, it is vital for this well to be reliable and operate at top efficiency. There has been a decrease in water production from this well as it has aged. Rehabilitation of Well 9 will restore our ability to produce 1.4 million gallons per day, which is critical during the times of year where water demand is at its highest.
Lake Havasu City Public Works is seeking approval for the rehabilitation of Water Well 9. Scope of Work will include pulling and inspecting the existing equipment, pre- and post- rehab videoing of the well, cleaning of the well casing, and installation of new and repaired equipment, including pump, line-shaft, bearings, and column.
COMMUNITY IMPACT:
The rehabilitation will increase the Functional Reliability and Operational Flexibility to meet the water demands for Safe Drinking Water and Fire Protection. The upgraded pumping equipment will also run more efficiently.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funds of $105,186.75 are allocated and available in the Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget in the Water Utility Fund.
ATTACHMENTS:

SUGGESTED MOTION:
I move to award the bid for the Rehabilitation of Water Well 9 in the amount of $105,186.75 to Mike’s Drilling, LLC.
