5.      Mall Lift Station Bid Award - Dean Weyen

As part of the Sewer System Capital Improvements Plan, the existing sanitary sewer lift stations will be upgraded and updated over several years.  The first of these projects will occur in 2009 with a modification to the Mall Lift Station wet well.  The project consists of two improvements to the existing station, as follows:  1. The top eight vertical feet of the existing reduced-diameter precast concrete wet well will be replaced with a greater diameter section to allow maintenance accessibility; and 2. Replacing soil within and adjacent to the station's existing chain link enclosure with crushed rock for the purpose of establishing all-weather vehicular accessibility.  This station is located in State Highway 8 right-of-way immediately south of Sangria Restaurant.  The project was advertised for bids and the bid opening occurred on April 29th.  A & R Construction, Inc. of Lewiston submitted the low bid in the amount of $26,000.00.  

ACTION:  Recommend approval of awarding the contract to A&R Construction or take such other action deemed appropriate.

6.      Alternative Security for Indian Hills 6th Addition Public Infrastructure Warranty - Les MacDonald

On October 9, 2008, City of Moscow entered into a Development Agreement with Thompson Development, LLC, Thompson Family Limited Partnership, for Indian Hills 6th Addition public improvements.  Section VIII.A of the Development Agreement required security to warranty the public improvements installed as part of such Development Agreement.  Moscow City Code § 5-1-10(C)(1)(e) allows a developer to post security with "[a]ny form of security which is approved of by Council."  Developer desires to post security in the form of a document which makes the City a co-obligee of the payment bond, on the Indian Hills 6th Addition project and subordinates Germer Construction's rights to those of the City.  City Engineer and City Attorney have reviewed the documents and would support the substitution, if approved by Council.

ACTION:  Consider whether to substitute the security interest for those traditionally accepted by the City and provide a recommendation to the Council or take such other action deemed appropriate.
