Recommendation
Approve the Resolution.
Fiscal Impact
The Fiscal Year 2020 Water and Sewer Fund Budget allocates funds for materials and supplies for the operation and maintenance of the water distribution and sewer collection systems in the Operational Supplies account, numbers 5040-43730-777-560631 ($130,000.00) and 5040-43750-781-560631 ($25,000.00).
In an effort to achieve better pricing staff only requested pricing be good through June 30, 2020. The hope is to eliminate a long term economic uncertainty. Depending on material needs staff may re-bid this purchase for the second half of 2020.
Background
Seven vendors provided material price bids for 2020. The materials are purchased from the lowest cost qualified vendor based on the availability and quality of the material. Staff is bringing forward only the bid from the vendor that would exceed $25,000.00, the Village Managers spending authority.
Based on the bid summary and the estimate of materials needed, staff anticipates spending up to an amount of $50,000.00 with Core & Main LP.
Alternatives
The Board can delay action to gain additional information.
