Council awards Lowe Avenue pump station contract to low bidder at $398,050.01
Summary
The council approved awarding the Lowe Avenue Pump Station Improvements to Independent Mechanical Industries for $398,050.01, citing the need to shore up water-system reliability after the State Street pump shutdown.
The City Council voted unanimously April 1 to award the Lowe Avenue Pump Station Improvements contract to Independent Mechanical Industries, the low bidder, for $398,050.01. Public Utilities Superintendent Craig Blanchette told the council the project would "improve the liability of the water system at Lowe Avenue, especially in light of the shutdown of the State Street pump," and said the City's consulting engineer recommended the low bidder.
Alderman Sonia Perez moved the resolution and Alderman Vincent Zaranti seconded; the motion passed with all members voting in favor. City staff characterized the project as a reliability improvement for the water system and provided the bid amount and bidder name in the resolution (Resolution #2026 26).
