2017 Paving Program — Phase 2 — Castings
Additional Castings
To approve the additional purchase of manhole and catch basin castings from EJ
Prescott, Inc. of Concord, NH in the amount of $61,209.. Funding will be through:
Department: 169 Wastewater; Fund: Wastewater; Activity: Sewer Structures.
Work associated with the annual paving program includes replacing all broken and
obsolete manhole and catch basin castings. In order to keep costs down, the paving
contract specifies that the castings will be supplied by the City.
Approximately 6.5 miles of additional roadway will be paved this year under a
change order to the 2016 Paving Program (Brox Industries contract) and will require
replacement castings as part of the work. In April 2017, after a bidding process to
purchase 550 castings for the 2017 Annual Paving Program, EJ Prescott, Inc. of
Concord, NH was determined to be the qualified, low bidder. EJ Prescott has agreed
to hold the prices that were bid in April 2017. This approval is for the additional
purchase of 140 catch basin frames, 140 catch basin grates, 150 manhole frames, 20
drain manhole covers and 120 sewer manhole covers meeting DPW specifications
and they will be installed under the change order to Brox Industries.
