PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
On 3/24/2025, City Council passed Resolution #15934, which approved the award of
the 2025 -2027 Emergency Storm Sewer Point Repair Contract to multiple contractors
which were qualified via competitive bid.
BACKGROUND:
Stormwater Utility was notified of a sinkhole at the intersection of Garfield Street and W.
Abriendo Avenue. Upon visual and closed caption television (CCTV) inspection, it was
determined the cause of the sinkhole was a broken pipe and aging stormwater
infrastructure. Along with the storm sewer that contained the sinkhole, it was
determined the adjacent pipe and inlets were also past their useful life and in need of
replacement. An emergency point repair was performed to repair the stormwater
infrastructure.
