CHULA VISTA CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF: April 2, 1974
ITEM TITLE: Resolution - Approving Six Month Extension of Time-
Municipal Golf Course Irrigation Wells
Ic-'
INITIATED BY: Director of Public Works/City Engineer (!;;
BACKGROUND
On September 25, 1973, the City Council awarded a contract to Acme
Drilling Company for the construction of three irrigation wells at
the Chula Vista Municipal Golf Course. On January S, 1974, the City
Council approved a thirty-nine day extension of time, making the
contract completion date March 8, 1974. Two wells have been completed.
Well #1 has a capacity from 3 to 4 hundred gallons per minute, and
Well #2 a capacity from 7S to 100 gallons per minute.
On February 20, 1974 a conference was held between Acme Drilling
Company, Department of Parks and Recreation and the Department of
Public Works. At that meeting it was decided not to drill the third
well but to recondition an existing well near the 13th Tee.
The reconditioning of this well can result in a savings to the City
of approximately $3,000. Because of the critical shortage of
irrigation water, the City must place Well #1 into service prior to
commencing work on the existing well near the 13th Tee. We are
therefore requesting a six month extension of time for the contract
completion date in order to accommodate the delivery of the pump
and motor, and the work necessary to place Well #1 into production.
This will change the contract completion date to September 8, 1974.
