SUBJECT: Award a Contract for the Lift Station L16 & Forcemain Improvements Project No.

Action Sought
Approve Resolution No. 7450, which accepts the bid and awards a contract for Lift Station L16 &
Forcemain Improvements, Project No. 2014 -5 and includes a contingency amount equal to 5% of
the contract to cover minor change orders and quantity adjustments that may occur on the project.
Background
On April 1, 2014, City Council adopted Resolution No. 7425, which approved the plans and
specifications and authorized the advertisement for bids on the Lift Station L16 and Forcemain
Improvements.
On May 8, 2014, a bid opening was held for this project in which four bids were received. The
bids are summarized in the attached resolution. From the bid opening, the low bidder is Magney
Construction Co. from Chanhassen, MN and a bid of $403,170.00. The Engineer's estimate for
this project was $650,000.00.
The project is funded 100% from the City's Sanitary Sewer Enterprise fund in which sufficient
funds exist.
The bid did include a deduct for a sewage grinder alternative. Attached is a memo from Tom
Roushar of WSB & Associates, Inc. who was the design engineer and his recommendation is to
proceed with the bid base and the sewage grinder in that bid.
If Council awards a contract, staff is also requesting a contingency amount equal to 5% of the
contract to cover minor change orders and quantity adjustments that may occur on the project.
Recommendation
1. Accept the low base bid from Magney Construction and adopt Resolution No. 7450.
2. Approve a 5% contingency amount for this project for use by the City Engineer in authorizing
change orders or quantity adjustments on this project.
Budget Impact
The project is funded 100% from the City's Sanitary Sewer Fund.
Relationship to Vision
This supports Goal E: Deliver effective and efficient public services by a staff of well- trained,
caring, and professional employees.
Requested Action
Approve Resolution No. 7450, which accepts the bid and awards a contract for Lift Station L16 &
Forcemain Improvements, Project No. 2014 -5 and includes a contingency amount equal to 5% of
the contract to cover minor change orders and quantity adjustments that may occur on the project.

Dear Bruce:
Bids were opened on May 8, 2014. The bid tabulation is attached. Four base bids were received
as follows:
• Magney Construction:
$403,170.00
• Minger Construction:
$437,687.50
• Geislinger and Sons:
$489,200.00
• Lametti and Sons:
$572,700.00
The engineer's estimate for the project was $650,000. So, all four bids received were below the
estimated construction cost.
Magney Construction often constructs projects designed by WSB. So, we have worked with
them many times in the past. I also contacted Mark Magney who is comfortable with his bid and
is excited to do the work.
The base bid includes a JWC Environmental sewage grinder. An alternate bid was taken for a
Franklin- Miller sewage grinder. My review of the two sewage grinders is that the JWC
Environmental machine is superior to the Franklin- Miller machine for the intended purpose.
Also, Electric Pump who sells the JWC Environmental sewage grinder has represented them for
over 10 years, has 100+ installations in the Minnesota area, and has a full service department.
The service department is important because like any other piece of mechanical equipment, the
sewage grinder eventually will need to be serviced.
Based on my review of the two sewage grinders, my recommendation is that the City award the
project to Magney Construction in the base bid amount of $403,170.00 which includes the JWC
Environmental sewage grinder.
