Resolution accepting the bid of Compass Utility, LLC for the East Manawa Sewer Rehab, Phase XIII.  Project #PW25-09

On July 30, 2024 bids were received through the City bidding software Ion Wave as follows:

The area of East Manawa is very flat with open ditches.  There are no storm sewers in this area and the streets are thin asphalt or seal-coated rock roads.  During rainfall events, considerable surface ponding occurs due to the poor drainage.  Phases I thru XII are substantially complete and included construction of the vacuum sewer pump station, Huron Circle, Aztec Street, Blackhawk Street, Osage Street, Victor Street, East Navajo Street, Pickard Lane, and vacuum sewer along Navajo Street from Huron Circle to Comanche Street.   

Phase XIII will reconstruct Mohawk Street from Navajo Street to Comanche Street and Comanche Street from Navajo Street to Mohawk Street.  The close proximity to a gravity sanitary sewer outfall allows Mohawk to be constructed with a gravity sewer instead of a vacuum sewer. Other improvements include a new concrete roadway, and sidewalks will be added on the west side of Mohawk Street and the north and south sides of Comanche Street. The reconstruction of Mohawk will also allow new housing to develop on the City owned property located along the east side of Mohawk street.

This project is included in the FY25 CIP with a budget of $1,300,000 in Local Option Sales Tax funds and $450,000 in Sewer funds.  

Approval of this resolution.  The project continues the infrastructure improvements for the neighborhood.
