BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION:
Well #4 is a municipal well providing service for the West Public Water System since 2004. During routine
inspection services, the contractor was unable to pull the pump due to failure of the well's pitless unit.
This specific equipment is a significant part of the well head, providing access, piping support of well
equipment and directional flow of water to treatment. The replacement unit is consistent with City
standards for maintenance, security and quality standards.
The 2018 budget included $50,000.00 for this well and its repair needs. Two quotes were sought for
replacement of the unit from professional well drillers. The low quote and staff recommendation for
acceptance is E.H. Renner & Sons, Inc. for $34,188.00.
