IssueDetail
Issue Detail: Staff recommend City Council award a construction contract to TNT Industrial Contractors, Inc., to rehabilitate the E.A. Fairbairn Water Treatment Plant (FWTP) grit basin. The project scope includes: removal and replacement of the clarifier rake arm, recoating of center pier, replacement of access ladder, and installation of safety access gate to ladder.
Given that the FWTP grit separator is only accessible during short annual shutdowns and is essential for water production, staff recommends council approve increased authority for construction change orders up to $150,000 to address any unforeseen conditions that may arise during rehabilitation. This increase will help ensure that any critical repairs can be completed within the limited shutdown window, preventing delays in bringing the water treatment plant back to service.
