PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
Mayor and Council are asked to consider authorizing and executing a Contract for Professional Services with HDR Engineering, Inc. to provide engineering design for W.O. 12-43, Water Treatment Plant Backup Power Phase III.

In the event of a power failure at these pump stations, it is critical these pump stations continue to operate so that the distribution system does not have water shortages.
