ORDINANCE 93-27
APPROVING A SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION FROM THE SEWER FUND FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION OF THE CRITZER SEWAGE PUMP STATION
IN THE AMOUNT OF $5,553.41
Whereas, the Critter Sewage Pump Station was constructed by Pulaski
County in 1971 and annexed by the Town in 1988. It serves Renfro's
Newbern Road plant, Long-Airdox, Appalachian Power Company, Critter
Elementary School and 61 residences and carries approximately 13
percent of the Town's total wastewater flow; and
Whereas, the pump station's insufficient wet well capacity requires
that the pumps run almost continuously. Due to its age and short
rests between pumping, the existing pump station often overheats
and suffers mechanical breakdowns; and
Whereas, because the pump station was not designed to handle the
existing sewage volume from major industries and residential areas,
the Town had an immediate need to replace the pump station; and
Whereas, the Town of Pulaski Engineering Department opened bids on
March 26, 1993 for the Critter Sewage Pump Station Pumps and
awarded a contract, in the amount of $83,733.00, to Emory L. Wilson
and Associates, Colfax, North Carolina; and
• Whereas, the Engineering Department opened bids for the Critter
Sewage Pump Station Wet Well and Piping on April 16, 1993. The
Town received one bid from Structures and Utilities,
Christiansburg, Virginia, in the amount of $35,874.54; and
Whereas, the FY 1992-93 Sewer Fund Capital Outlay budget contains
$80,000 for the construction of the Critter Sewage Pump Station,
which was based on an Engineering Department initial cost estimate
in March 1992. The Engineering Department further refined their
estimate in July 1992 after the adoption of the budget; and
Whereas, the project cost exceeded the budgeted amount due to
design revisions mandated by the Health Department and other
Engineering Department revisions since March 1992; and
Whereas, the total cost of the project was estimated to be
$119,988.16, which exceeded the budgeted amount by approximately
$40,000; and
Whereas, on April 21, 1993, Town Council approved Ordinance No.
93-11, approving a supplemental appropriation in an amount not to
exceed $45,000 to the Sewer Fund Capital Outlay budget funded by
the Sewer Fund balance, which was $363,054 as of March 31, 1993;
Whereas, the total project cost exceeded the supplemented amount by
$5,553.41 due to a cost overrun on electrical improvements.
NOW, THEREFORE, be it ORDAINED by the Town Council of the Town of
Pulaski, Virginia, sitting in regular session on October 26, 1993,
- 166 -
•
•
that $5,553.41 is approved as a second supplemental appropriation
to the FY 1992-93 Sewer Fund Capital Outlay Budget from the Sewer
Fund balance to complete the Critzer Sewage Pump Station
Replacement.
This ordinance is effective upon adoption and is adopted by
