Board, Commission or Committee Recommendation
The Board of Public Utilities recommended this request at their regular session on September 18, 2024 and recommends that the Council award Task Order #1 as presented.
Body
The three phase primary line along Trinity and down Oppenheimer has failed several times. The outages affect over 1600 customers. This project is the first phase in the replacement of the feeder 13-line section. The project will install a new switch at Trinity and Oppenheimer and proceed down Oppenheimer to replace a three-phase line that Is already damaged. The new line is needed to support the subdivisions and the new lift station at Los Arboles. This project will set the stage for the Trinity Drive electric replacement from Oppenheimer to Timber Ridge. The project will include the trench installation of 6” conduits, switch cabinets, pull boxes, junction boxes and primary cable.
Alternatives
If the primary line is not replaced the failure of the line in the future will cause outages to customers along Oppenheimer, Loma Vista, Los Arboles and Short Drive. The improvement to lift station at Los Arboles will also be in jeopardy as three phase power will not be available.
Fiscal and Staff Impact/Planned Item
Funds are within approved Capital Improvement Program budget.
