summary
Summary Explanation/Background:
In accordance with the City Charter/Code of Ordinance, Section 32.46 "Emergency Procurement,” the City Manager authorized issuing an emergency Purchase Order to repair the wastewater force main break at 1100 S. Federal Hwy., Pompano Beach, FL 33062. The City maintains two competitively solicited utility repair contracts (Ordinance 2020-29). Each contract has a clause (Article 4) that permits additional quotes from a different contractor. Due to the response times provided by the primary and secondary contractors for this urgent need, the Utilities Department requested an additional quote from a local company to address the discharge of wastewater along the public right-of-way and into public water bodies. The Utilities Department Memorandum No. 2023-52 includes the details of the repair. To prevent a threat to public health and minimize the disruption of utility services, Purchase Order 331014 was issued to DBF Construction LLC., in the amount of $114,750.00. City Commission approval is requested to ratify the actions taken by City staff.
Origin of request for this action: Staff
Fiscal impact and source of funding: The $114,750.00 in emergency repairs will be paid from budget account 420-7345-535-65-12 Capital Projects / Sewer.
