A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING
THE PURCHASE OF A REMOTE TERMINAL UNIT AND
ACCESSORIES FOR KILLELEA SUBSTATION
REHABILITATION PROJECT
WHEREAS, Lodi Municipal Code §3.20.070 authorizes dispensing with bids for
purchases of supplies, services, or equipment when it is in the best interest of the City to
do so; and
WHEREAS, the Electric Utility Department is in the process of finalizing the
construction agreement for the Killelea Substation Rehabilitation Project with Rosendin
Electric, Inc., as previously authorized by the City Council on May 3, 2006, following
project redesign work, which was completed by Power Engineers in March 2007; and
WHEREAS, for purposes of reducing the project cost by as much as $25,000,
staff recommends a direct purchase of the remote terminal unit and accessories as sole
source from Siemens rather than acquiring the unit and accessories from Rosendin
Electric as part of the construction agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Siemens remote terminal unit will be compatible and consistent
with the existing Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system that is currently in
operation at the Electric Utility Department control center.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Lodi
does hereby approve the purchase of a remote terminal unit and accessories from
Siemens Power Transmission and Distribution, Inc., of Palatine, Illinois, for the Killelea
Substation Rehabilitation Project in the total amount of $60,000.
