MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council
THROUGH:
Paul Ostrander, City Manager
FROM:
Scott Curtin

SUBJECT:
Resolution No. 2021-58
The purpose of this memo is to request Council's approval to award Task 6 to HDL Engineering
Consultants LLC under the term agreement from May 2020. Task 6 will begin to address
renovations to three primary sewer lift stations. This work will upgrade 40 year old pump
controllers, provide new pumps, new pump rails, floats and level transducers at three primary
locations identified during the facility and infrastructure assessments completed earlier this year.
This project is included within the current Capital Improvement Plan and is currently funded for
$400,000. The department has standardized on Flygt pumps, and pending the successful
completion of this project intends to continue with similar upgrades for the next two fiscal years
as detailed within the Capital Improvement Plan.
It should be noted the upgrades at this time are only to pumps, controllers and other components.
Renovations to the actual wet wells, influent and effluent piping, will be needed at a future date,
however that will require a much larger investment. Work at this time is intended to safe guard
current operations and allow staff the equipment to more effectively manage their responsibilities.
In the event funding for a larger renovation project becomes available, the controllers and
equipment being provided now will be included within that future project.
