Request for Action <br />To <br />Item Number <br />Mayor and City Council <br />4.16 <br />Agenda Section <br />Meeting Date <br />Prepared by <br />Consent <br />December 21, 2015 <br />Brandon Wisner, Stormwater Coordinator <br />Item Description <br />Reviewed by <br />Stormwater Pond Dredging <br />Justin Femrite, City Engineer <br />Reviewed by <br />Cal Portner, City Administrator <br />Action Requested <br />Authorize, by motion, the acceptance of the bid from Steinbrecher Companies, Inc., in the amount <br />of $63,712.50 to dredge the American Legion/Railroad Drive and the Deerfield Hill Park stormwater <br />ponds. <br />Background/Discussion <br />WSB and Associates was hired in 2013 to develop a stormwater maintenance plan on four municipal <br />ponds that have reached or are near the limit of treatment effectiveness. Included were the Orono, <br />American Legion/Railroad Drive, McDonald's, and Highland/ Jackson stormwater ponds. <br />In early 2015, the city dredged the Orono Dam pond and Highland/Jackson ponds. Since the <br />McDonalds stormwater pond still has remaining capacity, staff recommends dredging the American <br />Legion/Railroad Drive stormwater pond because it has surpassed its treatment effectiveness. Also, this <br />stormwater pond is undersized so it is proposed to be expanded with this bid to provide additional <br />stormwater treatment within the city -owned parcel. <br />This fall, American Engineering Testing, Inc., performed environmental testing and soil borings of the <br />sediment within the Deerfield Hill Park stormwater pond. This stormwater pond is one of the oldest <br />constructed basins within the city and has exceeded its treatment capacity. <br />This project was advertised on our website. Bids were received from four contractors and are listed in <br />the table below. The contractor will remove and dispose of 975 cubic yards of sediment from the <br />American Legion/Railroad Drive pond and excavate and dispose 1225 cubic yards of soil to expand the <br />basin to the Northwest. The contractor will also remove and dispose of 600 cubic yards of sediment <br />from the Deerfield Hill Park stormwater pond. <br />Contractor <br />Total Bid Amount <br />Steinbrecher Companies, Inc. <br />$ <br />63,712.50 <br />U.S. Sitework, Inc. <br />$ <br />97,800.00 <br />Sunram Construction, Inc. <br />$ <br />90,662.50 <br />Veit & Company, Inc. <br />$ <br />109,150.00 <br />The project has a completion date of February 12, 2016. <br />P a W I R 1 0 0 <br />Template Updated 4/14 INAfURE] <br />
