Date:6/14/2016

OBJECTIVE

To receive City Council approval to reject all bids and re-advertise for bids at a future date for the construction of the West Haven Reservoir Rehabilitation Project.

BACKGROUND

Staff solicited bids to construct the West Haven Reservoir Rehabilitation Project and four (4) bids, ranging from $2.6 million to $3.8 million, were received and opened by the City Clerk’s Office on May 5, 2016.

DISCUSSION

Due to the significant reduction in water revenue based on the State mandated water conservation regulations, it has resulted in a shortfall of Water Funds to finance the construction of the West Haven Reservoir Rehabilitation Project. 

FINANCIAL IMPACT

There are no funds available at this time to complete the construction of the West Haven Rehabilitation Project. 

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the City Council:

 

  • Reject all bids received for subject project on May 5, 2016; and
  • Authorize the City Clerk to re-advertise Project No. 7359 – West Haven Reservoir Rehabilitation when funding is available.
