ISSUE

RECOMMENDATION
Approve this Resolution
BACKGROUND
On Friday January 19, 2007, the Wastewater Department became aware of a
broken sanitary sewer line in the alley between Pine Street and Spruce Street, in
the 900 block of Pine Street. The Wastewater Department undertook a point
repair. As work progressed, it became evident that the sanitary sewer line was
broken and collapsed at multiple locations throughout the length of the block
extending from Summit Avenue to Washington Street. The sewer needed to be
replaced throughout the entire block. In addition there were issues with
underground utilities and with electric poles that required equipment the City
does not own. Because the job proved to be beyond the scope of the
Wastewater Department, the City Manager was asked on January 25, 2007 to
approve an emergency repair. A copy of the agreement with Pate Construction
Co., Inc. is attached, along with quote for the unit prices for the work.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funding for this project will be taken from the emergency repair budget funded by
the Sewer User Fund. Funding is available and was appropriated in the 2007
budget.
