Submitted by: Matthew Cox, Public Works Director 
Resolution 21-163
ITEM 7.C.
Council Action: 5/24/2021
Description

Resolution authorizing the mayor to execute an agreement with Ehrhart Griffin & Associates for engineering services in connection with the 2100 Block of Avenue H Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation.  Project # PW22-23

Background/Discussion

The sanitary sewer in the 2100 Block of Avenue H and the sewer in N. 22nd Street from the alley to Avenue H is a reinforced concrete pipe constructed over 60 years ago.

 

During a recent lateral connection repair, it was discovered that the sanitary sewer main was in very poor condition.  The reinforced concrete pipe has disintegrated to the extent that in some locations the pipe is non-existent.  The sewer replacement will require the removal and replacement of the street pavement.

 

This project requires immediate attention and is being added to the FY22 CIP with costs to be paid with Sales Tax Funds. The estimated construction cost is $625,000 based on preliminary limits which are shown on the attached map. The exact limits of the sanitary sewer rehabilitation will be determined during design.

 

The Engineer was selected from the pre-qualified list of engineers because of their successful project history and availability to complete the project.

Recommendation

Approval of this resolution for the selection of Ehrhart Griffin & Associates to serve as project engineers for design and construction engineering services associated with the sewer repair.
