The Geneva Committee of the Whole approved a draft resolution authorizing a contract with Dom Mechanical Industries Inc. for improvements to the Kautz Road sanitary lift station, with a not-to-exceed amount of $610,337.76 that includes a recommended 10% contingency.
Staff said the project was included in the FY25 budget using a December 2023 cost estimate; design changes and updated material costs increased the engineer's estimate, and staff reissued the bid. The city received a single bid from Dom Mechanical Industries in the amount of $554,888.88; staff recommended the contract be funded by reallocating funds from under-budget capital projects and other project savings. Staff noted Dom Mechanical has previously worked for the city and performed satisfactorily.
Superintendent Van Gescombe and a representative, Alex Hopps from Fairgram, were present to answer questions. The committee authorized moving the draft resolution forward by unanimous voice vote; staff said a contingency is included to address unforeseen field changes.
