From: City Manager


Ordinance Number:   Resolution Number: 10-20-01 - REGULAR MEETING


ORDINANCE/RESOLUTION CAPTION: 

Approval  to commit additional match funds for South Park Pump Station and sewer upgrades CDBG project & award the bid for South Park Sewer System Upgrade.



BACKGROUND SUMMARY: 

In 2019, the city received a $750,000 CDBG grant to make upgrades to the South Park sewer system (pump & lines) in S. Hartsville. Res. 07-19-02 (7-9-19) committed $132,500 to the project. On 9-24-20, the project received bids.  The base bid plus alt. 4 & 5 was $76,638.05 over budget in the sewer facilities line.

To allow this project to move forward, council would need to commit these additional funds and award the base bid plus alt 4&5.



IMPACT IF DENIED: 

If denied, the much needed pump station and sewer line upgrades project for that area would be unable to move forward .The $750,000 grant would be returned to SC Dept. of Commerce, which would have a negative impact on future CDBG grant awards in addition to sewer system failures by not making the necessary improvements.



IMPACT IF APPROVED: 
Necessary sewer improvements will be made to South Hartsville area.


FINANCIAL IMPACT: 
An additional $76,638.05 will be needed for this project.
