Re: Tartan West Water Tower Bid Acceptance - Resolution No. 31-05
Summary
On May 6, 2005 three (3) bids were received, publicly opened and read for the Tartan West Water
Tower (500,000 gallon water spheroid) project. A summary of the bids is shown on the attached bid
summary. The Engineer's estimate for this project was $1,400,000. Maguire Iron Company, Inc.
submitted the lowest and best bid of$1,180,275.00.
Detailed design of this project began in October of2005 and was initiated in response to water
distribution system improvement needs identified as part of the Tartan West development project.
Until the water tower is brought on-line, system pressures will be provided by a booster station
currently under construction and intended to be operational by June 1,2005, The booster station is
designed currently as a three-pump system (1 @ 200 gpm and 2 @ 700 gpm back-ups) but may be
reconfigured once the tower is operational to provide an economical water supply feed to the tower.
As City Council is aware, a tax increment financing (TIF) district has been established for the Tartan
West development. The water tower project was included in the Description of Public Infrastructure
Improvements to be funded by the future service payments generated from the private improvements
being constructed within the TIF district.
The project will be financed initially by an advance from the Water Fund. An advance of $600,000 was
made in 2004 and an additional $600,000 will be advanced in 2005.
Maguire Iron Company has no previous experience in Central Ohio but has significant experience in
other parts ofthe country, particularly in Minnesota and Wisconsin, with water spheroid type tank
construction. Reference checks of contacts provided by Maguire with their bid, and conversations with
other engineers and clients familiar with Maguire's work, indicate that the company is responsive and
performs quality work. No information indicating that the company has ever had difficulty at meeting
tight construction schedules was identified. This is important with respect to this project given the
tower is to be substantially complete by August 2006, prior to the opening orthe Elementary "12"
school along Hyland-Croy Road.
Recommendation
Staff recommends Council adopt this resolution accepting the bid of Maguire Iron Company.
