BACKGROUND On March 26,2018,the City Council approved the preparation of the plans and specifications for the CRJ/CSAH 49 (Hodgson Road)Trunk Utility Improvements. • The improvements include construction of a sanitary sewer lift station and watermain proposed looping in the southwest corner of the City. The City's water system is in need of strengthening in that part of the City which is mitigated by the water system looping. The lift station is sized to serve approximately 50 acres both east and west of Hodgson Road. Watermain and a sanitary forcemain would be extended from Woodridge Lane to the western edge of the Lyngblomsten project. The Lyngblomsten project will extend these facilities to the north and east. The project cost including contingencies and overhead is $1.2 million. The project is funded through the trunk area and unit fund. Due to material delays and contractor labor shortages, construction costs are reported to be higher and the project cost estimates have been adjusted. Lift station materials can take up to a year to become available thus awarding a contract this fall will help address the delays.
