inspection.

BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION:
The 2022 Water Utility Budget includes partial funding for a routine well inspection with various equipment
upgrades. Well #6 was drilled in 2005, had routine maintenance in 2016, and is in need of an inspection.
This well provides excellent water quality and capacity assisting the East Public Water supply. Quotes were
sought to conduct an inspection along with upsizing the equipment to provide full water appropriations,
improving the capacity over 250 gallons per minute.
Quotes for inspection and equipment improvements were received from two well drillers. With an
alternate motor option deduct and review, City staff recommends award to Traut Well Companies for
project costs of $111,797.00. If the video inspection reveals sand intrusion within the aquifer to a degree
impactful of capacity, additional costs for sand removal will be incurred.
The Public Works Subcommittee was presented this information at their October 19 meeting with
recommendation to proceed to City Council consideration.
