ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:
The Mill Street sanitary sewer main has experienced increased flows due to upstream development, creating the potential for surcharging and sanitary sewer overflows during peak wet-weather events. The City’s Wastewater Collection System Master Plan identified this segment as a priority for capacity improvements. The proposed project includes upsizing approximately 6,500 linear feet of existing sewer main to a 15-inch diameter pipe to improve system reliability and accommodate future growth. CDM Smith Inc. will provide professional engineering services for surveying, geotechnical investigations, easement preparation, design, permitting coordination, and bidding support. The total cost for design and bidding services is $539,360. Funding for this work is available in the Mill Street Sanitary Sewer Upsize capital project. Completion of the design will allow the City to move forward with construction in a timely manner and reduce the risk of sanitary sewer overflows.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve the agreement and authorize the City Manager, or her designee, to execute the agreement as set forth in the caption above.
