Explanation
§ This contract allows the city to lease odor scrubber units as an odor control solution for its sewage pumping stations.
§ Pumping stations are essential to providing wastewater service, and these odor scrubber units reduce odors associated with the pumping stations.
§ Leasing odor scrubber units, which have a relatively short useful life of two to three years, is a best practice.
§ The lease contract provides for any necessary replacement parts and maintenance during the lease period.
§ Annual expenditures are estimated to be $138,000.
