SUBJECT: Waiver of Procurement Requirements for Well Rehabilitation Drilling'Contractor
REFERENCE: Section 3.70.080 Kent City Code.
Number 1.1.10 City of Kent Administration Policy
FUNDING: Riverbend Capital Budget
The Parks Department is asking for a written determination waiving the procurement
requirements allowed in the Section 370.080 Kent City Code and City of Kent Administration
Policy Number 1.1.10 to hire Hokkaido Drilling, Inc. to refurbish and redevelop the irrigation
source well atRiverbend-Golf Complex.
We believe it in the city's best interest to negotiate a purchase directly with Hokkaido Drilling
because this company drilled the original'irrigation well in 1987-88. They have valuable previous
knowledge of the<existing'site and ready access to previous construction details. In addition, the
hydrogeologic engineering firm currently conducting testing & inspections preliminary to the well
redevelopment, Robinson Noble, judges it appropriate that the original'drilling contractor perform
the rehabilitation. The shorter timeframe enabled by direct contracting will also expedite the
recapture and reinvestment of Riverbend's funds which are currently being spent on water
charges.- The estimated cost of Hokkaido Drilling's services is $33,72600. Existing budgeted
funds'will cover the cost of this purchase.
