Explanation
1. BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into a professional engineering services agreement with CT Consultants for the Barnett Road Stormwater System Improvements Project, in an amount up to $572,427.07, for Division of Sewerage & Drainage, Stormwater Section CIP No. 611040-100000 and with the Division of Water CIP No.690236-100139. This is a joint project between the Division of Sewerage and Drainage, Stormwater Section and the Division of Water.
The scope of work is to investigate existing stormwater drainage issues along Barnett Road between E. Main Street and E. Livingston Avenue. Existing storm sewers on Barnett Road, E. Main Street, E. Mound Street, S. Hampton Road, Astor Avenue, Bolton Avenue, Towers Court N., Towers Court S., Ruby Avenue, S. Waverly Street, Brownlee Avenue and E. Livingston Avenue will be investigated to determine their condition and capacity to serve as outlets. After the investigation is complete, engineering recommendations and detailed plans will be developed to construct a new storm sewer system to mitigate stormwater drainage issues.
This Project will design approximately 7,640 linear feet (LF) of new storm sewer to mitigate roadway, yard and ditch flooding issues. This includes approximately 1,800 LF of new storm sewer to enclose existing ditches and 1,095 LF of new storm sewer along Barnett Road from Main Street to Livingston Avenue plus approximately 4,745 LF of new storm sewer on Main Street, Astor Avenue, Bolton Avenue, E. Mound Street, Towers Court and E. Fulton Street for connection into existing storm sewers or new outlet.
Approximately 915 linear feet of 8-inch water mains will be replaced within the project area.
The Consultant shall identify unknown storm or sanitary connections, within the project area, that drain to the existing ditches and storm sewer system along Barnett Road and design to re-direct them to the proposed storm sewer or a separate san...
