Explanation

This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify and increase a service agreement with Marion Electric Motor Service Inc for Electric Motor Repair Services for the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plants.

The Director of Public Utilities opened bids on September 25, 2002. Two (2) awards were made, Marion Electric Motor Services Inc and McNaughton-McKay Electric Company. McNaughton-McKay has informed the Division of Sewerage and Drainage that they will no longer perform motor service operations. The original agreements were established for one (1) year with a two (2) additional year extensions available. The Division of Sewerage and Drainage is opting to rebid the agreement in 2005 based on the information above. However, to allow for sufficient time to bid the contract and secure a completed agreement, this ordinance extends the current contract with Marion Electric Motor Services Inc. two (2) months beyond the current expiration date of April 1, 2005. The new expiration date will be June 1, 2005. Furthermore, funds are being allocated for six (6) months. Further funding will be requested when a new agreement is in place.

This service agreement is used by the wastewater treatment plants for the maintenance of motors of various size and horsepower that power pumps throughout the plants. Some of the service includes rewinding reconditioning, preventative analysis and bearing packing.
