Consent Agenda Item INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES Date: October 5, 2015 To: Joseph A. Baird, County Administrator From: Vincent Burke, P.E., Director of Utility Services CA'n Prepared By: Arjuna Weragoda, P.E., Capital Projects Manager �"_ Gordon Sparks, P.E., Environmental Engineer 1T�5 Subject: Approval of Work Authorization No. 2015-001 to Blue Goose Construction to complete Water Main Loops to The Highlands and Falcon Trace DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITIONS: The staff in the Department of Utility Services has identified three areas that require water main loops in order to ensure supply during emergencies and increase pressure and fire protection. Two water main loops are proposed for the Highlands. One is between Sunset Drive SW and Sunrise Drive SW. This loop is to replace the one that was inadvertently abandoned some time ago when road work took place in the area. The second one in the Highlands is at 20th Avenue south of 19th Place. The third water main loop is to serve Falcon Trace on 20th Avenue south of 21St Street. ANALYSIS: Since these loops will require new water main construction, staff decided that the quickest and most economical way to complete the work would be to utilize the Department of Utility Services Labor Contractor. The total estimated labor and materials costs is $143,850.52 (See Attachment 1). The estimated cost of the labor is $101,954.60 and the estimated cost of the materials is $41,895.92. FUNDING Funding for these projects is derived from the capital fund in the operating budget and the R & R fund in the operating budget. Operating funds are derived from water and sewer sales.
