Explanation
Background: This ordinance authorizes the Director of the Recreation and Parks Department to enter into contract with Technical Choice, LLC for design improvements to the Champions Golf Course irrigation system. The work will include preparation of plans and specifications which will upgrade the existing irrigation system by collecting GPS data, work on wells and pump stations, central control PC upgrades including central control software, main line replacement, lateral line repairs, and other renovation items.
The installation date of the original irrigation system is unknown, but main lines were installed with transite pipe and the lateral lines were installed with galvanized steel. Main lines are located in the center of fairways, with lateral lines running in very non-traditional areas. The original system has quick couplers throughout and was upgraded to a Toro Vari- Time hydraulic system in the 1970’s.
In 2001, an irrigation renovation project was completed. This renovation included retaining the main irrigation lines, the center row sprinkler heads were removed and capped and a double row system was installed using the first and last fairway sprinkler heads as connection points. Green and Tee complexes were completely replaced with new pipe and sprinkler heads. The control package for this renovation was and still is Toro E-Osmac field controllers with a Toro Site Pro Central PC. The current system exists in the same state as it was renovated to in 2001.
The costs for this project will be $41,500.00 with a contingency of $3,500.00 for a total of $45,000.00.
