Replacement Phase I Project, RECOMMENDATION Approval of Resolution BACKGROUND an agreement in the amount of $1,697,205.00 for the Northern Sanitary Sewer Interceptor Development along the Interstate Highway 25 corridor in the northern area of Pueblo has led to significantly increased wastewater flows in the principal sanitary sewer interceptor serving the area, and it is anticipated that flows will continue to increase. A hydraulic "bottleneck" in the sanitary sewer main exists in an area south of Colorado Highway 47 along the 1 -25 frontage road. The sanitary sewer main needs to be upsized to accommodate both approved projects and projects currently in planning stages, and to avoid a building moratorium. A sanitary sewer interceptor within the 1 -25 frontage road alignment will carry wastewater flows from new developments. The first phase of construction must be accomplished in 2008 to ensure that current and future projects will be able receive sanitary sewer service. Because the project is driven directly by growth, it seems appropriate to fund both the design effort and construction from the Sanitary Sewer Collection System Improvements Fund ( "Fund "). Monies in the Fund are collected from sanitary sewer connection fees, and are intended to be used for growth- related capital projects approved by City Council. The proposal to use the Fund for the Project design and construction was presented to the Pueblo Planning and Zoning Commission on May 30, 2007, and the Commission made the recommendation that the proposal was an appropriate expenditure for the Fund. Documentation of that recommendation is attached. It does, however, remain the province solely of Council to approve projects using monies from the Fund, in accordance with § 16 -11 -4 of the Pueblo Municipal Code. A copy of the bid sheet and the agreement with Pate Construction Co., Inc., is also attached. This project was identified and funded in the Wastewater Department's capital budget for 2008.
