APPROVE QUOTE AND CONSTUCTION CONTRACT FOR CULVERT
REPLACEMENT ON KENYON AVENUE.
Proposed Action
Staff recommends the following motion: Move to approve resolution awarding contract to
McNamara Construction Inc. for Kenyon Avenue culvert replacement.
Overview
On the evening of Tuesday, April 9th a sink hole formed on Kenyon Avenue. The Street
Department was called in and determined the road was not passible and subsequently closed and
set up a detour. Upon further investigation it was determined an old metal 24ā culvert storm sewer
pipe under the roadway had failed, allowing road base material to wash away causing the sink hole.
City staff investigated many alternatives to fix the culvert pipe but determined the best long-term
solution is to replace the culvert with a concrete pipe.
Staff solicitated quotes to replace the culvert which includes replacement of a section of the road
and restoration.
Quotes received are as follows:
McNamara Construction Inc. $60,000
Valley-Rich Co. Inc. $80,000
Friedges Inc. $95,000
McNamara Construction Inc. has worked on projects for the City. They are currently scheduled
to complete the 2019 Street reconstruction project. Their work has been acceptable.
The City does not have a storm water budget line item to cover storm sewer system failures such
as these. Staff is proposing to use Environmental Resource Fund reserve funds.
Financial Impact: $60,000 Budgeted: Yā Nā Source: Environmental
