Description:
Task Order for project that consists of re-coating of the exterior roof of the existing water storage tank.
Reservoir has not been re-coated since the 1980’s. The coating is worn off the dome, as areas are worn down to the primer. There are large patches where there is no coating on the roof. The coating will stop rust from occurring.
The tank is in good condition; it just needs maintenance to ensure it stays in good condition.
Timeline:
Desired construction to begin June 14, 2021 through September 25, 2021, with anticipated final completion by October 15, 2021.
Budget:
Task Order for services rendered is $57,883.00.

Description:
Kurt Markegard, Public Works Director, stated paint is coming off the top of the reservoir. This has been occurring over approximately the last three years. The top of the tank has no fall protection. The reservoir is a 1968 4-million-gallon steel tank. The tank needs to be protected from both the outside and inside.
In 1998, the City took the tank down and painted the inside. The City needs a new reservoir before taking the current reservoir out of service to coat the inside.
Mayor asked that no City Staff go up on top of the reservoir.
KLJ did prequalification on this project, as the location is 50 feet in the air with no fall protection.
The City of Laurel planned to re-coat its water tank as part of its routine maintenance, and such project was publicly advertised for competitive bids form interested and qualified bidders.
