AGENDA ITEM 7H
STAFF ORIGINATOR: John Powell, City Engineer
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 14, 2001
TOPIC:
Resolution No. 01 - 66 — Order Preparation of Plans and Specifications for the
2001 Surface Water Management project
VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority
BACKGROUND:
After storm water ponds and drainage ways are constructed, they require periodic maintenance
to ensure their effectiveness. Five areas have been identified for maintenance in 2001, they
are located as follows:
Location
Mar Don Acres
Twilight Acres 2nd Addition
Highland Meadows West
Thomas Street
Tomahawk Trail
Type of Maintenance
pond cleaning
pond cleaning
downstream ditch cleaning
outfall repair
ditch cleaning
The maintenance activity required at these sites is more extensive than what is typically
undertaken by Public Works staff. They have been combined into one project in order to
minimize mobilization costs. If, after we begin preparation of the construction documents,
discover the cost of a specific maintenance activity far outweighs the benefit, we may
recommend reductions in the project scope.
The funding for this work is provided by the Surface Water Management Fund. This fund was
established in 1992 as a revenue source in order to meet the "administrative, planning,
ponding, mitigation, and water quality needs" of the City. It is reimbursed through assessments
to new subdivisions and is also collected as property owners connect to City utilities.
The schedule for this project is as follows:
City Council Approves Plans and Specifications
City Council Authorizes Ad for Bids
City Council Awards Contract
Construction Begins
June 25, 2001
