Board approves pump refurbishment award and equipment fund appropriations
Summary
Commissioners approved awarding the No.4 influent pump refurbishment to ProPump Inc. as lowest responsive bidder and approved appropriations from the equipment replacement fund to cover a pump refurbishment and prior-approved transformer and SCADA improvements.
The board approved a package of operational procurements and equipment-fund appropriations on June 24. Staff explained one of four influent pumps is out of service and recommended awarding the refurbishment contract to ProPump Inc., named as the lowest responsive bidder in the packet. The transcript lists the refurbishment amount in the bid tabulation as “$94,43” (format in packet inconsistent); staff asked that the funds be appropriated from the equipment replacement fund.
Separately, the board discussed two previously approved items — a transformer bid ($179,000) and SCADA improvements ($130,000) — that require formal appropriation because they were not included in the FY2026 operating budget. Combined appropriation requests and the pump refurbishment were presented as a package against the equipment replacement fund balance (discussed in the meeting packet) and the board approved the appropriations presented.
What’s next: staff will finalize contract documents with ProPump Inc., appropriate funds from the equipment replacement fund as approved, and report back in the next monthly packet on appropriation accounting.
