AGENDA TITLE: Professional Services for Test Water Well Drilling 2000/02
MEETING DATE: August 16, 2000
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council approve retaining Clark Well, Inc., of Stockton, as
a qualified driller for test well professional services for 2000/01 and
2001/02; and appropriate funds in accordance with the recommendation
shown below.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In the past, the Council has approved retaining a qualified driller, on
a time -and -materials basis, for drilling test wells. The work is fairly
specialized and few drillers do this work. Clark is an engineer
specialized in this field, has done a good job in the past, and
cooperates well with City staff. We have also checked costs and Clark has been substantially less
expensive. The cost of each test well is approximately $12,600 plus lab testing expenses of
approximately $2,500. Actual cost will be based on time and materials. This approval would be for test
wells done in the next two years.
We anticipate drilling test wells in the northeast industrial area as part of the Mondavi annexation, and in
the southwest area, possibly Roget Park once a park concept is approved. Pending results of testing in
these areas, additional test wells may be necessary.
FUNDING: Water Development Impact Fees (Budget Page E-14) $30,000
