Bid Award: Water Line Replacement Project - George Bell Avenue
end
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION:
Summary Recommendation
Award a construction services contract for a Water Line Replacement at George Bell Avenue to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder in the amount of $301,824.46 to Yuma Valley Contractors Inc., Yuma, Arizona. (Engineering-RFB-26-148) (David Wostenberg/Robin R. Wilson)
end
STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
Awarding this contract aligns with the City's strategic outcome of Respected and Responsible by replacing approximately 1,642 linear feet of existing 2-inch water line with a 6-inch Class 235 DR18 C900 PVC pipe along George Bell Avenue, from 8th Street southward, including Claxton Street. This upgrade will improve system performance by ensuring appropriate water pressure throughout the area.
REPORT:
The existing 2-inch water line along George Bell Avenue does not meet City standards and is currently underserving the community. It is severely undersized and unable to provide adequate water pressure or support fire suppression needs.
This project will replace the outdated line with a 6-inch Class 235 DR18 C900 PVC pipe and will include the installation of 15 one-inch water services, four two-inch water services, and two fire hydrants. These upgrades will improve water pressure, enhance fire protection capabilities, and support future development in the area.
