The project budget includes expenditures for design and the purchase of long lead time items that have already occurred. This expenditure authorization request will authorize the expenditure of all budgeted funds in the FY2022 budget to be used for the construction phase of the project.
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 CIP for FY2022 through FY2026.
STAFF ANALYSIS
The groundwater wells at Site 18 have been impacted by increased nitrate levels, which is a common issue for wells in the valley.
The expenditure for this project is needed to maintain the site’s operational status and to provide safe and reliable levels of redundancy in the system. Additionally, the completion of this project will allow the city to maintain drinking water quality requirements. This project will incorporate an innovative treatment technology to reduce nitrate levels along with upgrades to the chemical feed system. The construction of the project is scheduled to coincide with low water demand periods commencing this Fall.
