Explanation

1. BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into a construction contract with Kalkreuth Roofing and Sheet Metal, Inc., in the amount of $69,632.50, for the Hap Cremean Water Plant (HCWP) Roof Restoration 2011 Project, Division of Power and Water Contract Number 1178.

There were no public meetings held regarding this work. The HCWP is a secure facility and is not a publically accessible building.

The project specifications require that the roofing project utilize a modified bitumen membrane incorporating a combination of 28% post industrial and 11% pre consumer recycled content. The roofing surface is specified to be supplied as a white, elastomeric, urethane coating with an Energy Star approval rating.
