VIA: Marisa Stoller, City Clerk
FROM: Andrew Hayes, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A WATER MAIN EXTENSION
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF PUEBLO, A COLORADO
MUNICIPAL CORPORATION AND THE BOARD OF WATER WORKS
FOR PUEBLO, COLORADO FOR THE EXTENSION OF WATER MAINS
IN W. 18TH STREET AND NEWPORT AVENUE AND AUTHORIZING
THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE THE SAME
SUMMARY:
This proposed ordinance will approve a water main extension agreement between the
Board of Water Works and the City of Pueblo related to the extension of water mains in
W. 18th Street associated with the ongoing road construction project at that location.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The City is currently constructing a two-block segment of W. 18th Street, including the
installation of water, sanitary sewer, and stormwater utility infrastructure between Perry
Avenue and Sun Mountain Boulevard. The Board of Water Works requires builders to
enter into agreements related to the extension of water mains in its water distribution
system. The attached agreement generally describes the mains to be installed and
their location, references required standards for construction and installation, and
requires compliance with Board of Water Works rules and regulations related to the
delivery of water service. This Ordinance will approve the agreement and authorize the
Mayor to execute the agreement on behalf of the City.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Under the proposed agreement, the City will not incur any additional costs related to the
establishment of water services in the area. The scope of work and approved budget
for the road construction project already include sufficient funding for required utility
construction activities.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
Not applicable to this Ordinance.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
Not applicable to this Ordinance.
ALTERNATIVES:
Failing to approve this Ordinance will preclude the City of Pueblo from being able to
complete the installation of water utilities associated with the road construction project
on W. 18th Street.
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommend approval of this Ordinance.
