1. Those that required no further action. They were evaluated and corrected, or did not need correcting because the water was fully contained within a dedicated drainage & utility easement (functioning as designed).
2. Those that required additional investigation and evaluation before deciding on a long term solution, and implementing corrective actions.
3. Those that had an identified recommendation for immediate action.
    

In conjunction with the 2012 Street Maintenance Program (SMP), various minor storm sewer repairs are necessary.  Staff has incorporated those items into a separate plan, as they must be completed before the sealcoat application can be applied.  One set of plans (Division A) will primarily address the larger projects to alleviate flooding concerns; those improvements are estimated at an amount that requires a 3 week bidding process.

The other set  of plans (Division B) will primarily address the minor storm sewer repairs; those improvements that must be completed quickly and fall under the $100,000 threshold for bidding requirements.  This project was sent out for quotes to local contractors in an effort to expedite the improvement in advance of the SMP activities.

On May 11, 2012 it was brought to our attention that the culvert under Wolfram Street NW, which serves to provide flow through for County ditch #66, was collapsing and in need of repair.  Staff quickly evaluated the situation and prepared a plan sheet to distribute as an addendum to the Division A project set.

Bids for both projects are due. and were opened, at 10:00 am Friday, May 18th.  They have been tabulated and are attached to this Case.  Between the opening and Council meeting staff will have the ability to check the contractor's references, and be in a position to make a recommendation for award at the Council meeting.
