Body
Issue/Request:
Approval of a recoating project for the Water Towers located on Hook and Ranson Roads. Project includes surface prep of the existing tanks and application of a coating system to the interior and exterior of Ranson Road Water tower and to the exterior only of Hook Water Tower.
Key Issues:
• Lee’s Summit maintains 4 Water Towers, 1 Stand Pipe and 4 Ground Storage Reservoirs to provide potable water services to the Customers of Lee’s Summit Water Utilities.
• These Towers and Tanks are protected from internal and external corrosion with epoxy coating systems.
• The replacement of these systems is funded through the utilities Equipment Replacement Program. (ERP)
• The City’s Elevated Towers are due for coating replacement and Hook and Ranson are scheduled to be done this coming spring and fall respectively.
• The City advertised and bid this project and received 6 bids.
• Worldwide Industries Corp. has been determined to be the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
Background:
The Ranson Road Water Tower was constructed in 1991 and repainted in 2004 and is now due to be repainted again. This tank will be painted both interior and exterior after having the surfaces blasted and prepared behind full containment. While this is being done the tank will be out of service and the adjoining dog park will be closed.
The Hook Road Water tower was constructed in 2007 and has its original coating still intact. This tank will receive exterior recoating only as internal inspection indicates that coating system is still in good condition. The remote nature of this tank removes the requirement of containment for the surface preparation and coating work.
