PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT

Bids were received for W.O. 05-15 Howard Heights Storm Drainage on July 13, 2010.  The Howard Heights area is generally located west of the BBWA Canal and north of Hilltop Road.  Approximately 200 acres of residential development drains down Nutter Boulevard to Shamrock Lane, and as this area of the Heights does not have existing storm drain infrastructure, there is a potential for property damage in large storm events.  When a city-wide storm drain priority study was performed, the Howard Heights project ranked number one on the priority list. 

The Howard Heights project was bid in four schedules.  Schedule 1 is the main backbone of the Howard Heights project and will construct storm drain improvements within Hilltop Road, Shamrock Court, Howard Heights Park and Dickie Park.  Schedule 2 will construct storm drain improvements within Nutter Boulevard from Shamrock Court to Aronson Avenue.  Schedule 3 includes storm drain improvements within Aronson Avenue from Nutter Boulevard to Stewart Court.  Schedule 4 includes storm drain improvements within Nutter Boulevard from Shamrock Court to Erickson Court.

In order to keep this project within budgetary constraints, only Schedules 1 and 2 will be awarded.
