Purpose & Explanation
2026 Storm Sewer Lining
The scope of this project involves the lining of City maintained storm sewers and culverts.
The storm sewers and culverts being lined are a safety concern due to the numerous sink holes and require continuous on-going maintenance requirements. The lining process will eliminate future sink holes caused by separated joints and will extend the life of the storm system pipes. After the pipe interior has been repaired, Public Works staff will restore any sink holes that remain in grass areas.
The estimated cost of construction is $250,000 that includes a 10% contingency.
78” Storm Sewer Pipe Repair at Darrow Park
The project scope entails the spot repair of a 78-inch metal pipe extending from Darrow Park to Lascala Drive. This major component of the local storm sewer infrastructure was identified for remediation during a post-flood inspection in August 2024.
The estimated cost of construction is $100,000 that includes a 10% contingency.
These projects will be bid separately and are planned for summer/fall of 2026.
