Title
Six-Month Extension and Dollar-Limit Increase to the Term Contract for Fire System Water Meters for the Water Resources Department (Citywide)
Water Resources has requested the contract extension and increase to facilitate the rebidding of the contract. The department is completing research and testing two new types of maintenance-free, fire rated meters prior to re-bidding the contract. These new meters could potentially provide a substantial cost savings in annual maintenance costs to the City.
Water Resources and Purchasing recommend authorizing a six-month extension and dollar-limit increase of $100,000.00 with Badger Meter, Inc., increasing the contract amount from $165,241.04 to $265,241.04, through May 31, 2015.
