Consent Agenda Item E <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA <br />DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES <br />Date: February 22, 2017 <br />To: Jason E. Brown, County Administrator <br />From: Vincent Burke, P.E., Director of Utility Services <br />Prepared By: Arjuna Weragoda, P.E., Capital Projects Manager <br />Subject: Approval of Work Authorization No. 2017-002 to Replace Water Services in Grand <br />Harbor at St. David's Lane—UCP #4130 <br />DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITIONS: <br />The water main within St. David's Lane has been in existence for approximately twenty seven (27) years. Over the past <br />five years, the Indian River County Department of Utilities Services (IRCDUS) has been called to the St. David's Lane <br />area within Grand Harbor for emergency repairs to various water laterals between the main and the meter box. Grand <br />Harbor management personnel approached the county about re -paving St. David's Lane. Prior to doing so, IRCDUS <br />operations personnel has recommended replacing the laterals under the roadway in order to minimize potential <br />future interruption of water service to our customers in this area and also to avoid open cutting the newly paved <br />roadways. <br />ANALYSIS: <br />Staff decided the most efficient and timely method to replace these service lines was to utilize the IRCDUS labor <br />contractor, Blue Goose Construction. A list of the anticipated material quantities was prepared and bid prices from <br />the Blue Goose Construction contract was used to calculate the labor expense. The total material cost was based on <br />unit prices derived from the Annual Contract for Utility Warehouse Stock where the county will realize a 7% savings <br />on the material by Owner Direct Purchase. The total labor cost estimate for Blue Goose Construction is $89,255.65 <br />(See Attachment 2). The total construction labor cost including the material cost is therefore $127,806.85. <br />FUNDING: <br />Funding for this project is derived from the R&R budget in the Operating fund. The Operating fund budget is derived <br />from water and sewer sales. <br />ACCOUNT NAME <br />ACCOUNT NUMBER <br />AMOUNT <br />Grand Harbor -St. David's Lane <br />1 471-169000-17502 <br />$127,806.85 <br />P144 <br />
