North Star Pump Service to re-furbish the three pumps for the price of $24,579.65. Staff
received two quotes for this project with the other quote from W.W.Goetsch Associates,
Inc. for $33,330.00. As an informational item, one new pump has a purchase price of
$33,631.00.

ACTION REOUESTED:
Move to accept the low quote from North Star Pump Service and authorize staff to
contract for said services for the price of $24,579.65. With the costs to be expended from
the Sanitary Sewer Fund.
