Do you want to go back to item 14? Yes. Report from Financial Management Recommendation to award a contract to Fleming Environmental for the construction of an above ground storage tank field site at the West Police substation. For a total contract amount not to exceed $708,000. District seven. Can we have a second, sir? Thank you. Is there a staff report. Please? Manager Dan Berlin. Good evening, Mayor Garcia and members of council. This project is to award a contract for the replacement of an underground fuel storage tank at the West Santa Fe Avenue substation with an aboveground tank and system. The tank is due for a replacement based on its age and condition. The project includes associated piping, fuel dispensers, alarm and monitoring equipment. The Fleet Services Bureau manages the fuel program for city vehicles, which includes both U.S. cities, which are underground storage tanks, as well as aboveground storage tanks or Estes. Whenever possible, we seek to replace a USB system with an AC to use. These are less expensive to build and to operate due to their simpler design. There are also less regulated in the case of West PD. We work closely with the police department to ensure the tank would meet their needs in terms of size, location and functionality. This tank will be a larger tank to allow for emergency storage of fuel in this part of town. 3000 gallons larger. And it provides unleaded fuel through four dispensers and nozzles available for use. 24 seven. The system is due for replacement this year under our Schedule Tank Infrastructure program and also is only 50% operational currently due to a piping problem that cannot be repaired and must be replaced. The Tank infrastructure program is funded through regular collection of funds from city departments using fuel for their vehicles. Funds are available in Fleet Sub Fund for fuel system capital improvements. That concludes my presentation. I'm available to answer questions. Any public comment on the item? CNN. Please cast your votes. Thank you. Motion carries.
