5. 1. Public Works Committee Meeting Date: 06/18/2024 Primary Strategic Plan Initiative: Address infrastructure needs. Title: Consider Recommending City Council Ordering a Request for Proposals for Sewer and Water Connection to Fire Station No.1 Purpose/Background: Purpose: The purpose of this case is to consider recommending City Council ordering a Request for Proposals for sewer and water connections to Fire Station No.1. Background: In 2021, concurrent with overlaying the Fire Station No.1 parking lot, a 6-inch ductile iron water extension was constructed. This extended a water service from the west side of the parking lot into the fire station's utility closet. The 2-inch copper line from the on -site well remains in service, supplying water to the fire station. An existing 4-inch sanitary line runs parallel to the recently installed water service, and carries sewer to an existing tank located just west of the parking lot. This overflows into the septic field located west of the parking lot in the green space. As part of the Lynwood Townhomes project, sanitary sewer and water stubs were extended to the west side of the Fire Station property. The extensions were built with the 2 nd phase of Lynwood's construction, and complete in 2023. This project proposes to complete the water and sewer extension to connect the water and sewer between the fire station and the stubs placed as part of the Lynwood Townhomes project. This requires extending approximately 80 feet of sanitary sewer, and removing the existing septic tank and impacted drain field. As well as extending approximately 95 feet of 6" ductile iron water service and relocating a fire hydrant and 6" gate valves. A sketch of the proposed improvements is included in the attached draft Request for Proposal (RFP). The water service is being constructed as 6-inches to accommodate the future fire station sprinkler system, currently proposed as a 2024 improvement in the 2024 — 2033 Capital Improvement Program. Staff proposes to take this to the June 25th City Council meeting to order the UP, and return proposals to the July 23rd City Council meeting to consider the award of a contract. This would allow the work to occur in August 2024. Notification: Notifications are not required for this case. Time Frame/Observations/Alternatives: Alternative # 1 — Motion recommending City Council ordering a Request for Proposals for sewer and water connections to Fire Station No.1. Alternative #2 — Motion of other. Funding Source:
