Project Description
Project Impact
This project is an ongoing annual rehabilita on of exis ng City sanitary li sta ons. In previous years, five li sta ons were rehabilitated annually. In Fiscal Year 2013, the City will use capital reserves budgeted in FY 2012 to con nue enhancements es mated at $2.1M. Improvements include replacement of pumps, wet wells, electrical controls and associated equipment, and control panels. These improvements ensure effec ve and efficient opera on at li sta ons.
The project requires the support of Purchasing through the bid prepara on and award phases.
Project Alternatives Staff could perform some of the work in-house. However, due to the scope of the project, it is more beneficial to have staff working on other preven ve maintenance ac vi es.
Project Effects Deferring or delaying the rehabilita on places the U lity at risk for sewer overflows.
Project Purpose This rehabilita on prevents sewer overflows and provides a reliable wastewater collec on system. We could perform some of the work in-house to save costs, but this will take staff away from other preven ve maintenance ac vi es.
Project Benefit This project benefits the strategic priority of Neighborhood and Environmental Sustainability. It is listed as WW-4, 1-10 in the U li es Master Plan.
Project Cost The project cost was calculated in the Water and Sewer Master Plan and was updated through an evalua on of 50 li sta ons in FY 2010 by Eckler Engineering.
