DATE ISSUED: September 8, 2023

PROPOSED SERVICE: Heber Avenue Waterline Replacement

PROPOSED PROVIDER: Silver Spur Construction, L.L.C.

DEPARTMENT: Public Utilities

This is a public notice of Park City Municipal Corporation’s intent to waive a competitive procurement process. Rule 5-2 of the Park City Municipal Corporation (PCMC) Procurement Rules provides that the competitive procurement requirements for certain procurements may be waived under certain circumstances and when there is reasonable justification for such a waiver. The Procurement Official has determined that a waiver is appropriate based on the information below.

Waiver Justification: A waiver is necessary to mitigate a circumstance that is likely to have a negative impact on public health, safety, welfare, or property.

The water infrastructure in Heber Avenue has a high-risk score and was prioritized to be replaced in the next 12 months. The high-risk score is based on the likelihood and consequences of failure. Given the recent waterline failures on Heber Avenue and Main Street, Public Utilities concluded it is necessary and more efficient to replace the waterline in Heber Avenue from Swede to Main Street as soon as possible.

For these reasons, a waiver is justified and necessary.

Public Utilities sought bids from multiple contractors and Silver Spur Construction was the only contractor that could provide the services in a timely manner.

Matt Dias, City Manager, approved the waiver and the selection of Silver Spur Construction.
