A tabulation of the bids received is included for your review. Based on these bids and the latest estimates of the cost of the Bremerton Intertie, the following table gives the status of the project. Item Asbestos Cement Pipe Ductile Iron Pipe Phase I Construction Costs Reservoir W/Alt. 2b $453,147 $453,147 Pipeline 118,219 126,683 Total $571,366 $579,830 Other Project Costs Sales Tax $ 30,282 $ 30,731 Contingency 28,568 28,991 Design Fee 47,138 47,836 Construction Management 28,568 28,991 Total Phase I Project Cost $705,922 $716,379 Phase II Estimate, Including ,r all Project Costs $431,000 $491,000 Total Wacer System Improvement w }'rcgrs:m Cost $1,166,922 $1,207,379 Cranc Eligible Amount $ 984,034 91,000,756 Probable Grants (41%) - 403,454 _ 410O310 Balance $ 783,468 $ 797,069 Consulting Engineers, Architects and Applied S, ienttets Kramer, Chin a Mayo, Inc. Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Port Orchard September 22, 1975 Page Two G.O. Funds Authorized $700,000 $700,000 Additional Funds Required $ 83,468 $ 97,069 From the table above, it is obvious that additional grant money must be obtained and additional funds are required from the City in order to complete the entire project. In light of these requirements, we recommend the following: 1) The City authorize award of the contracts to the low bidders for the reservoir and the asbestos -cement pipeline, subject to State Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) approval of the award. Sufficient funds are in hand to complete Phase I of the Improvement Program. 2) Authorize a meeting between DSHS, Kramer Chin & Mayo and the City Director of Public Works within the next two weeks concerning the additional grant money to complete Phase II. Preliminary discussions with DSHS have laid the groundwork for this meeting, and indications are favorable that such a grant increase is obtainable. 3) The City authorize their financial consultant to work with RCM and the City staff to recommend a method for raising the additional funds required. 4) Following these meetings with DSHS.and the financial consul- tant, Kramer, Chin & Mayc will return to the Council with recommendations for the balance of the project. At that time we will present a final pre -design report on the Bremerton intertie (Phase II of the ?SIP). It is unfortunate that inflation and problems with the Highway Department have had such an effect on this program, but we remain confident that the work can be completed. Phase I will go a long way toward alleviating the present water storage and supply problems, but in light of the anticipated Kramer, chic &Nlayo, Inc. Honorable Mayor. and City Council City of Port Orchard September 22, 1975 Page Three growth of the City we strongly recommend that Phase II, the Bremerton inter - tie be constructed as the long range solution to the City's water problem.
