Mayor Dannels called a special meeting of the Board of Trustees to
order at 4:00 P.M. to consider preventive maintenance costs
associated with the Glacier Creek Water Treatment Plant.
In a memorandum dated March 7, 1991, Public Works Director Linnane
reported that the underdrains and filters at said Plant must be
repaired or replaced. Two alternatives were presented: (1)
underdrains repaired or replaced with similar technology, with an
estimated cost range of $71,000-$110,000 and life expectancy of 15
years (maximum); and (2) underdrain and filters replaced with
state -of -the art technology, with an estimated cost for Phase I of
$129,000 and Phase II of $40,000, with a life expectancy of 30-40
years.
Staff recommended Alternate #2 with Phase I being performed in
1991, and Phase 2 being performed in 1992. Short-term costs may be
greater; however, the long-term costs are less than Alternate #1.
The total budget for water line projects in 1991 (excluding water
lines associated with the Marys Lake Water Treatment Plant) is
$221,000. The cost of Phase I (as identified above) can be
supported from the 1991 Water Line Project Budget. Staff
negotiated labor prices with two firms, and the associated costs
supplied by Kitchen and Company have been included in their
recommendation.
The remaining $95,000 budget will allow partial construction for
water lines identified in the 1991 Budget: Fall River III, Devil's
Gulch and 1991 Water Loop Project.
Timing is essential due to the anticipated length of time to
receive the materials (10-12 weeks±) and the approaching summer
season.
It was moved and seconded (Aldrich/Hix) staff proceed with
Alternate #2 as identified above and it passed unanimously.
There being no further business, Mayor Dannels adjourned the
meeting at 4:15 P.M.
