Commissioners authorize manager to proceed with estimated $50,030 well at Kremling landfill site
Summary
Road & Bridge presented a Winnegar Well Service estimate of $50,030.75 (not-to-exceed) for a 500-foot domestic well at the Kremling landfill shop; commissioners authorized the manager to proceed up to that cap and to stop if adequate water is not encountered.
Road and Bridge staff presented a drilling estimate from Winnegar Well Service for a 500-foot type-2 domestic well at the Kremling Road shop/landfill site with a not-to-exceed amount of $50,030.75. Commissioners discussed per-foot costs, steel casing, and contingency planning if sufficient water is not found, and agreed to authorize the county manager to accept the estimate and proceed up to 500 feet.
Commissioners noted drilling costs and the need to choose an appropriate drill site near the planned building and parking areas. The board directed staff to proceed under manager authority and asked that staff return if alternative, substantially different estimates are obtained. The decision was framed as time-sensitive if the county is to drill before ground-freeze conditions set in.
