Utility board approves $580,900 bid to rebuild Lift Station 12; board notes higher materials costs
Summary
Dave O'Meara's $580,900 bid to rebuild Lift Station 12 was accepted; board discussed budget and rising materials and control-panel costs.
The Lawrenceburg Utility Service Board accepted a bid of $580,900 from Dave O'Meara to rebuild Lift Station 12, the city said at its March meeting. Staff told the board the job is a total rebuild of the station's mechanical and electrical components; the concrete vault will remain in place.
Board members noted the bid exceeded the earlier engineer/budget estimate. A staff member explained materials costs have risen sharply — pumps, pipe, fittings and the control panel (including SCADA implementation) were cited as primary drivers — and said sufficient budget funds are available to cover the bid.
The board approved the motion by voice vote. Staff indicated the work focuses on mechanical, electrical and control upgrades and that the pit/vault concrete will not be altered.
