SUMMARY

RECOMMENDATION
Approve expenditure of funds up to $584,200 to purchase and install an aeration blower at the Goodyear Water Reclamation Facility. (Todd Carpenter, Process Operations Manager; Stephen Scinto, Interim Deputy Public Works Director)
FISCAL IMPACT
The Goodyear WRF Blower Replacement (Project 60093) has an approved project budget of $622,700 in the FY2022 Capital Improvement Program funded through wastewater operating funds. $38,500 has been expended for Design Services and the remaining available budget of $584,200 will be used for the purchase and installation of the equipment.
BACKGROUND AND PREVIOUS ACTIONS
Per City of Goodyear Resolution 08-1255, all expenditures of budgeted funds in excess of $500,000 must obtain Council approval. The city has developed and approved a Capital Improvement Program for FY2022 through FY2026. The aeration blower was planned to be replaced in FY2023 per this plan. A formal solicitation was put out for competitive bid, and through the selection process Felix Construction will be providing the blower and installation services.
STAFF ANALYSIS
The approved CIP includes the purchase of a replacement blower at the Goodyear WRF in FY23. This blower is controlled by a variable frequency drive (VFD) which will give operations a full range of flexibility in meeting daily aeration basin treatment demands as well as the anticipated future expansion needs.
