(All Council Districts)
Body
BACKGROUND: Public Works staff is in the process of creating an asset management system for the storm drainage system. Mapping of the entire system has been in progress since 2012 and is nearing completion. The next steps in this data gathering process is to inspect and rate the condition of the storm sewers using high definition digital cameras mounted on remote controlled small tractors. This work will also include cleaning these pipes with high pressure water and vacuum systems.
The contract identified five sections within the City of Peoria (one in each council district) that add up to 68,000 feet of pipe ranging in size from 4" to 60" diameter. Pipes, manholes, and inlets will all be rated based on an industry standard that has been adopted by the Public Works Department. All work is to be completed and data delivered by the end of 2023.
The contract advertised on May 18th and 19th and bids were opened on June 9th with the following bids were received:
Contractor Bid Amount
J.C. Dillon $241,685
Hoerr Construction $657,379
National Power Rodding $595,682
Dukes Root Control $657,445
Engineer's Estimate $713,697
Crawford, Murphy & Tilly prepared the bidding and contract documents.
The work will be completed based on bid unit prices per foot of pipe and per manhole/inlet inspected. Public Works staff is recommending adding the 10 percent contingency to account for unknown conditions that are encountered as the work is performed.
