Memorandum
Attached for your review and approval is a resolution to award and enter into a contract with Fonson Company, Inc., in the amount of $231,030.00, for the Rock Creek Sanitary Sewer Repair Project, ITB-4526.
This project involves the replacement of an existing 12-inch sanitary sewer that has partially collapsed. Due to the location of the collapse in relation to the house at 485 Rock Creek Drive, traditional open cut repair methods are not feasible. The partially collapsed pipe will be abandoned and a new section of sewer will be installed around the house.
While preparing this project for approval, the sewer fully collapsed on August 15, 2018, resulting in a complete backup. City staff responded and are coordinating emergency sewer work with Fonson Company while preparing to construct the replacement sewer included in the project bid documents.
