Resolution approving the plans and specifications for the Recycling Center Entrance Drainage and Paving Project Phase I B.  Project #2021-169

Currently stormwater at the entrance to the facility flows underneath the existing scale. This drainage is detrimental to the life of the current scale foundation and other structures that would be placed in the area.

In conjunction with the purchase and installation of a new second scale, it is necessary to improve stormwater drainage and paving at the entrance of the facility. These improvements will provide adequate drainage for the scale in this phase and future phases of the project.  The additional paving will provide access to the new scale ramps and approaches.

Phase two of the project is the removal of the old 1997 scale and replacement with a new outbound scale and associated paving.

These two projects will enhance safety by eliminating issues caused by crossing traffic patterns and reduce bottlenecks at the entrance of the facility.

The estimated construction cost for this project is $69,440.  The project is included in the Recycling Center Operating Budget.

Approval of this resolution.  This project will address stormwater drainage issues at the Recycling Center.
