Action: City Clerk Hines read the title, and Capital Projects Manager Elka Linton-Dorsett reported over the last two years the City has implemented a program of televising and cleaning out the existing drainage lines. In doing so we were able to identify multiple points of failure and deficiency in the existing drainage along 172"d Street. In response to that we established a Capital Program within the budget which we publicly bid. We had one response to that bid which was Southern Underground Industries who also happens to be the City's small project contractor. The bid amount is a little less than$1.1 Million Dollars. The intent of that work is to repair the existing system, there will be a point excavation and in some instances we are adding new lines to facilitate the bridge. Public Speakers: None Commissioner Aelion asked if this drainage improvement is long term, and Ms. Linton- Dorsett said yes it is. Commissioner Aelion asked if a developer buys the Salem House and redevelops it, will it affect the drainage system, will we have to revisit it? Ms. Linton- Dorsett said private property requires their drainage on site and so regardless of what happens within private property, it does not impact the street drainage. City Attorney Ottinot said if this Resolution is approved, the City Manager will negotiate a final price in order to expedite the project. City Manager Russo said the amount needs to be put in here, and Ms. Linton-Dorsett said the exact amount is not to exceed $1,063,306.25 9
