Summary

Council approved a contract with ACE Pipe Cleaning Inc. for rehabilitation of 28 manholes and junction boxes using a cementitious spray liner and epoxy cover after rejecting a competing bidder's foam liner proposal; vote was 6–0.

The council authorized a contract with ACE Pipe Cleaning Inc. for rehabilitation of approximately 28 manholes and collector vault structures across the city at a contract value of $369,904.

Utilities staff explained that hydrogen sulfide gas corrodes the concrete in manholes and junction boxes; the city specified a cementitious spray liner with an epoxy cover as the required repair method. One bidder was disqualified for proposing a foam liner that did not meet the city's specified cementitious requirement. Council approved the award to ACE Pipe Cleaning, the low bidder that met specifications, by unanimous vote.
