Recommendation
Motion to approve Resolution No. 04-24 to award an Agreement with Generic Chemical, Inc., for supply and delivery of GP-143 Polymer utilizing the City's City Standard, in a total not to exceed estimated amount of $136,000.
Body
Background:
The City of Delray Water Treatment Plant (WTP) uses the chemical polymer to enhance the coagulation in the removal of solids from raw water as part of the production of potable water. The use of polymer is critical in reducing turbidity, aiding in successful disinfection. The WTP has been using General Chemical’s GP-143 Polymer since 1998, after extensive comparison testing. On October 17, 2023, Utilities received Commission approval for issuance of purchase order as expenses had exceeded the $65,000 threshold over the past two (2) fiscal years due to price increases. Guaranteed pricing for this new agreement is $6.58/lb. valid through September 30, 2026.
This motion is in accordance with the Code of Ordinances Chapter 36, Commission Approval Required and Purchasing Policies.
