The purchase order repairs cannot exceed $5,000. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: Emergency sewer line repairs on Citrus Avenue, west of Rancho Avenue were required, and the contractor who was issued the term purchase order performed the necessary work, but the amount exceeded the terms of the purchase order.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: None FINANCIAL IMPACT: The FY99-00 Wastewater Budget included sufficient funds in the Emergency, Unscheduled Sewer Line repairs in Account No. 522-8200-8200-2303 to cover the costs of the repairs. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that Council adopt the attached Resolution Declaring Emergency Conditions at the locations stated above, delegating authority to the Utility Director to order actions required, and authorizing payment in the amount of $7,500 to EI -Co Contractors for repairs made to the sewer lines.
