STAFF REPORT
TO: The Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners
FROM: Ray Brenner, Public Works Director �� —j/
DATE: June 29 , 1992
ISSUE:
Should the Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners approve
the emergency expenditure of $6 , 758 . 00 , to repair the irrigation
pump at the City Garage?
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
It was reported on Thursday, June 18th that the pump motor was
turning, but the pump itself was not . This pump/well serves as
irrigation for three baseball fields and the fooltball field located
behind the garage. I called Robert Holland to ask if he could
recommend a company that would provide us with costs to make the
necessary repairs. He recommended Locke Well and Pump Company,
stating that this company is reputable, reliable and gives good
pricing on their labor/materials. Mr. Dawson, Locke Well and Pump
Company President, was called and a crew arrived the next morning
to begin pulling the 40 HP turbine pump, 140 ' of 6"xl" column
shafting, and one bowl assembly. Upon completion of the inspection
of these parts, it was estimated that parts and labor would cost
around $7, 500 . 00 . I then met with Mr. Shapiro to discuss the
urgency for the repairs. He directed me to proceed to negotiate
down the price, if possible, and I did. Mr. Dawson agreed to
reduce the costs from $7 , 500 . 00, to $6 , 758 . 00 , a savings of
$742 . 00 . Mr. Shapiro considered this an emergency due to the newly
placed sod, along with reconstruction projects, fertilizing being
done, as well as preparing the football field for opening day.
Due to the lack of monies in the General Fund, staff elected to
transfer $3 , 500 from the P.P.T.D. Supplies Account (001-541-5202 ) ,
and $3 , 000 from the Lease/Rental Account (001-541-4400 ) , into the
Parks/Beach Maintenance Account (001-541-4609 ) .

RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore , based on the above background and discussion, it is

Commissioners approve the expenditure of $6 , 758 . 00 , to pay for the
repair of the pumping system.
