Overview
Overview
The Engineering Division requested a proposal from Baxter & Woodman to do the engineering design and construction management for the Central Pump Station variable frequency drive (VFD) and pump replacement project. The project involves replacing two existing older pumps and fittings at the central pump station along with the VFDs that control the various pumps. Design work is planned for 2021 and early 2022 with construction planned for the fall of 2022. Baxter & Woodman has previously completed work at the Village's pump stations and has conducted multiple studies of the Village's water distribution system and is best qualified to perform this work.

Recommendation
Recommendation
Approve the Resolution.
Fiscal Impact
The FY2021 Budget includes $100,000 for this design work in the Water & Sewer Fund, Public Works - Water, Water Supply, Capital Improvements, account no. 504-43730-776-570707. The proposed FY2022 Budget includes $670,000 for the construction and construction engineering work in the same account.
Background
The 2017 Pump Station Energy Study recommends replacement of the VFD system and these older pumps in order to improve pumping efficiencies and save energy and costs. The existing VFDs are approximately 25-30 years old and are near the end of their useful life and the two pumps planned for replacement are from 1996 and are also in need of replacement in order to maintain efficiencies and ensure reliability.
