Explanation
1. BACKGROUND: This Ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify and increase the construction contract with Kokosing Construction Company, Inc. for the Dublin Road Water Plant (DRWP) Sludge Pump Station and Electrical Substation Project, for the Division of Water, Contract No. 1009-Part 1.
This contract provides for work to bring the Dublin Road Water Plant into compliance with Ohio EPA regulations and to improve operational reliability.

B. RFP-011 Separate Potable Water Lines from 910 and 940 Buildings - $157,753.00

As part of Contract 4 (Ion Exchange) a water line must be relocated. This water line feeds the 910 complex. If the work is not performed prior to the relocation there will have to be a disruption of water service to the complex while the line is relocated. The work to be furnished through this modification will mitigate the interruption.
