Explanation
1.0 BACKGROUND: This Ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify and increase the professional engineering services agreement with T & M Associates for the Old Beechwold Area Stormwater and Sanitary System Improvements Project.
The goal of this project is to address roadway and yard flooding within the Old Beechwold Area due to an under-performing stormwater system.
