Title

Matters relative to Dollar General road bore

Body

SUMMARY: The Engineering Department acquired three phone quotes for a 45 foot road bore under 127 for the new Dollar General Store. The lowest phone quote was with Bush Construction for $4,990.

On May 30^th the Utility Maintenance Superintendent was called to the site to meet with the boring crew. The location of the water line and the terms of the bore permit prompted him to move the start location of the bore approximately 25 feet because the permit required 36 inches of cover in the ditch and the close proximity of the water line to the ditch. This made the total length of the bore 70 feet and changed the cost of the bore to $8,050.

The City Manager considers this to be an emergency situation and asks the City Council to give their post-facto approval of the payment to Bush Construction for $8,050.00 for the 70 foot road bore.

BUDGET ACCOUNT: Prior Year 413-52210.400

Recommended Action

NECESSARY COUNCIL ACTION: Approve the payment to Bush Construction for $8,050.00 for the 70 foot road bore.
