SUBJECT: Award of Contract For Pitt River Road Pump Station Upgrading
(Public Works Committee August 7, 1990)

RECOMMENDATION s

That Council approve the award by Beaconcare Developers of the Contract for
the upgrading of the Pitt River Road pumping station to Mons Contractors Ltd
at their tendered price of $64,145 subject to the Developer providing written
assurance that the upgrading of the downstream sewers will be completed prior
to the new pumps becoming operational.

BACKGROUND AND COMMENTS:

The Agreement executed between Beaconcare (Whitney Development Ltd.) and the
City with respect to cost sharing of offsite works for the Government Housing
Project cn Lobb Avenue requires that the City approve the award of any
contracts for cost shareable works. Staff is satisfied that Mons Contractors
are the lowest bidder and that they are capable of performing the work. The
Committee was concerned, however, with the slow progress on design of offsite
sanitary sewer improvements by Civic Consultants Ltd. and therefore recommends
that the award of the contract be approved subject to the installation of the
downstream works being complete before the new pumps are put into operation.
