INC. <br />(A JOINT VENTURE) <br />P -----=CT NO <br />August 5, 1980 <br />Mr. David Marsh, Senior Planner <br />Indian River County Planning Department <br />2121 - 14th Avenue <br />Vero Beach, Florida 32960 <br />Re: Wabasso Beach Park Improvements <br />Water Supply System <br />Dear Dave: <br />Pursuant to County requests, three cost estimates were received for renovation <br />and construction of the water supply system for the referenced project. Esti- <br />mates were obtained from the following contractors: <br />A. McCullers and Howard Well Drillers, Vero Beach, Florida <br />B. Drilling Services, Fort Pierce, Florida <br />C. Layne -Atlantic, Orlando, Florida <br />The specific items included in the cost estimates were as follows: <br />1. Renovate existing 6" well and extend casing 6" above pump house floor. <br />2. Furnish and install a 1z H.P., 2 stage pump. <br />3. Furnish and install a 315 gallon hydro -pneumatic tank. <br />4. Furnish and install hypo -chlorinator and 30 -gallon storage tank. <br />5. Furnish and install all necessary fittings and interconnecting piping. <br />6. Furnish and install 550 feet of 212" Schedule 40 PVC pipe (not including <br />digging trench) <br />7. Furnish and install 25 feet of 4" black iron pipe casing. <br />8. Clean, disinfection and pressure test 1.�;ater line. <br />The three estimates received are as follows: <br />McCullers and Howard <br />Drilling Services <br />Layne -Atlantic <br />$4,818.00 <br />5,750.00 <br />6,608.00 <br />It is our understanding that Indian River County's bidding policy requires com- <br />petitive bidding for projects with estimated costs exceeding $2,500.00. There- <br />fore, we recommend breaking the work into two portions and allowing McCullers <br />and Howard to perform the work, since they submitted the lowest estimate, as <br />follows: <br />Part l: To include the above items 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 <br />Part 2: To include the above items 6, 7, and 8 <br />After further discussions with McCullers and Howard, the above breakdowns would <br />each be below the $2,500.00 required by t+,e County's biddingpolicy. <br />It should be noted that the work described above does not include treanching for <br />the pipe or construction of the pump house itself. It is our understanding <br />County crews will perform this work, therefore, close coordination will be re- <br />quired between the County and the contractor who installs the water supply <br />system. <br />In addition, please find enclosed mylar reproducibles of the design drawings for <br />the construction of the pump house and water system layout as prepared by our <br />firm for use and records. <br />AUG '2 71980 <br />Very truly yours, <br />Randy Mosby <br />BOOK 44 FticE 366 <br />
