Description

Resolution accepting the work of Compass Utility, LLC as complete and authorizing the release of retainage after 30 days if no claims are filed in connection with the East Manawa Sewer Rehab, Phase XII.  Project # PW24-09

Background/Discussion

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.

 

The rehab program also includes installation of new sanitary sewers utilizing a vacuum system.

 

Phase I and II of the program included Huron Circle from Navajo to north of Osage Street.  Phase III of the program was construction of the sanitary sewer vacuum pump station. Phase IV was the first phase of vacuum sewer installation with the porous pavement and subdrain system on Huron Circle from Navajo to just west of Blackhawk Street.  Phases V through IX continued the rehab and completed Huron Circle, Blackhawk Street, Osage Street, Victor Street, Aztec Street, East Navajo Street and extended the vacuum sewer along Navajo Street.  Phase X included Pickard Lane from Hall Walk (Alley) south to Navajo Street.  Phase XI included Pickard Lane from Hall Walk (Alley) north to Navajo Street.  

 

Phase XII included extending the vacuum sewer along the east side of Navajo Street from the pump station at the intersection of Mohawk and Navajo Street to Comanche Street and along the south side Comanche Street from Navajo Street to Apache Street.
