Item No. 12 082
Date: 2-13-12
Item/Subject: ORDER, Authorizing Execution of Contract in the Amount of $340,626
to Bangor Hydro Electric for Bangor Events Center
Responsible Department: Finance
Commentary:
This Order will authorize a contract with Bangor Hydro in the amount of $340,626 for necessary
electrical upgrades to support the new arena and convention center. Over the past several months,
the project team has been meeting with Bangor Hydro to determine the most efficient and
economical way to achieve the necessary upgrades. The upgrades include taller poles on Main
Street, underground installation up Buck Street, heavier conductors, larger transformers and new
switch gear. This work was included as a component of the owner's cost in development of the
overall project budget. The project team obtained external quotes, reviewed a myriad of
alternatives with Bangor Hydro and had the project reviewed by the Cianbro's electrical
subcontractor.
On February 6, 2012, the Finance Committee unanimously approved staff recommendation to
execute the contract with Bangor Hydro in the amount of $340,626.
