AGENDA TITLE: Contract Award for Wood Pole Testing Program (EUD 91-1)
MEETING DATE: May 15, 1991
PREPARED BY: Electric Utility Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt the attached resolution
awarding the contract for the above project to the sole
bidder Osmose blood Preserving, Inc., Gresham, Oregon in
the amount of $14,884.44.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Electric Utility Department has conducted a sample
testing of its wood pole population and found a
significant number of poles in a deteriorated condition.
In order to classify the level of deterioration and
determine replacement priorities, the above recommendation has been made.
It is anticipated that this testing will be performed in stages with the first stage
being the 60-kv transmission system followed by age declining sections of the
distribution system.
Plans and specifications for this project were approved on March 20, 1991. Only one
bid was received. However, since the estimated cost of the project was $22,000, the
bid received is very advantageous to the City and thus warrants the recommended
action.
FUNDING: Included in the Department's 1990-91 fiscal year budget.
