QUESTION:

1. What material (i.e. poles, insulators, bolts, hardware, etc) is the bidder/contractor expected to provide?
   
   1. If the bidder/contractor will provide material, are their specific material vendors to use in order to source the same material the City uses on a daily basis.?
2. What class poles are required for each pole height?
   
   1. 30’
   2. 40’
   3. 45’
   4. 50’
3. Is the bidder/contractor responsible for transferring any facility on the pole other than power (i.e. cable, fiber, telephone, etc)?
4. Is the City willing to provide a temporary laydown yard for material and truck parking while the project is being worked?
5. What is the deadline to perform all pole replacements after the bid is awarded?

ANSWERS:

The contractor would provide all materials per the spec sheet; the only thing I would like to upgrade is the porcelain bells and insulators to polymer for 15kV. The vendor we use is Gresco. Here is the diagram that shows the pole size and class for each location. Contractor would be responsible for transferring and, where possible, facilitating the transfer of other facilities. City would provide laydown yard for material and truck parking. The deadline for pole replacements is 3-4 weeks.

UPDATED ADDENDUM FOR THE 2026 POLE CHANGEOUT PROJECT

1. The city will supply a transformer if needed and service wire.
2. We do have a laydown yard to store equipment and material.
3. Monday through Friday and some Saturdays, we're okay with customers not being disturbed. Two projects must be completed on Saturday.
4. We do have an area for the old pole and material.
5. The city would also like to transfer all communication lines where possible.
