Existing Conditions <br />3.1 Surface <br />The existing streets within the Birch Tree Ponds Area are asphalt paved residential streets. Except for <br />Fountain Avenue North, road widths are 28 feet, with surmountable curb and no sidewalk. The northerly <br />section of Fountain Avenue North is 28 feet in width with bituminous curb and no sidewalk while the <br />southerly section of Fountain Avenue North is 30 feet in width with surmountable curb and no sidewalk. <br />The roadway drainage is conveyed by storm sewers to stormwater ponds within the project area. <br /> <br />3.2 Storm Sewer <br />Stormwater is collected in existing curb catch basins on either side of the roadway. These discharge to <br />stormwater basins within the project area. A majority of the existing storm sewer structures have <br />deteriorated and require replacement. <br /> <br />3.3 Municipal Utilities <br />3.3.1 Sanitary Sewer <br />The sanitary sewer system in the Birch Tree Ponds Area consists of 8” to 15” polyvinyl chloride <br />pipe (PVC). Public Works conducted a review of the existing sanitary sewer components, such as <br />manholes and pipe, and found no deficiencies. Sewer televising is scheduled to be completed to <br />ensure there are not any corrections needed as part of this project. <br /> <br />3.3.2 Watermain <br />The watermain system in the Birch Tree Ponds Area consists of a 6” to 8” ductile iron pipe (DIP). <br />Public Works has completed a review of the existing watermain components, such as gate valve <br />locations, gate valve condition, and hydrant conditions. There have been watermain breaks in <br />the area since the watermain was installed. Minor changes to the system that include a limited <br />amount of additional of valves, valve bolt replacement and three hydrant extensions have been <br />included. <br /> <br />
