Subject: Approval of the Purchase of a New Pump for Well #2 at the South Water Plant.
(Utilities Director Bolling)
Background Summary:
As part of the approved City of Ocoee Budget for Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the Water Facilities Repair &
Replacement (R&R) budget includes $65,000.00 to inspect and make necessary repairs to Well #2 at the
South Water Plant (SWP). A purchase order in the amount of $14,372.50 was issued to Locke Well & Pump
to pull and inspect the pump and 12" flanged pipe, as well as provide a video inspection of the well while the
pump was out. After the pump was removed and inspected, it was determined that it would be more cost-
effective to replace the pump. In addition, the video inspection of Well #2 revealed damage to the motor shaft
assembly and the concrete riser. Locke Well & Pump provided a quote of $62,587.16 to replace the pump and
make the necessary structural repairs, bringing the combined cost of this project to $76,959.66. Although this
is over the budgeted amount of $65,000.00, the Water Facilities R&R budget has adequate funds available for
this project.
Issue:
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners approve the structural repairs and purchase a new
pump for Well #2 at the SWP with Locke Well & Pump at a cost of $62,587.16?
Recommendations:
Staff recommends that the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners authorize the City Manager to cause
structural repairs and the purchase of a new pump for Well #2 at the SWP by contracting with Locke Well &
Pump at a cost of $62,587.16. Staff also recommends that the City Manager be authorized to approve
changes to this contract up to the limit of his purchasing authority for each change order.
