TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 15-29, Authorizing Preparation of Plans and Specifications, Aqua Lane Trunk Water Main Improvements VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority INTRODUCTION Staff is requesting council authorization to prepare plans and specifications for the Aqua Lane Trunk Water Main Improvements BACKGROUND The 2030 Comprehensive Plan identifies trunk water main improvements to strengthen the City's municipal water system. The proposed Aqua Lane Trunk Water Main project will extend the existing trunk water main along Aqua Lane and connect with water main extended north of Black Duck Drive. This project is a critical component of our system that completes a major loop and provides redundancy between Tower No. 1 and the well fields located in the southern part of the city. This connection is currently served solely by an existing trunk line along Hodgson Road. The City Engineer, WSB and Associates, has submitted a proposal to provide final design and bidding services for the proposed improvements in the amount of $49,350.00. The estimated construction cost of the project is $1,030,000. The project will be funded though the Trunk Area and Unit Fund. RECOMMENDATION Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 15-29 authorizing preparation of plans and specifications. ATTACHMENTS 1. Resolution No. 15-29 2. Project Location Map 3.

The length of the trunk water main is approximately 1.5 miles as shown in Exhibit A (see attached). Based on the discussions with staff, WSB would perform the following tasks: 1.
