Capital Improvement Program <br />City of Ramsey, Minnesota <br />2011 thru 2015 <br />Project # 11-WTR-001 <br />Project Name C.R. 57 / Alpine Drive Watermain Looping <br />Description <br />Department Water Utility <br />Contact <br />Type Improvement <br />Useful Life 50 Years <br />Category Water Utility Improvement <br />Priority 6-Planned <br />Status Active <br />Total Project Cost: $35,000 <br />This project will include the extension of 550 feet 12 inch watermain to loop the existing water distribution system. <br />Justification <br />The installation of signals at the intersection of C.R. 57 and Alpine Drive will create an opportunity to accomplish this watermain distribution <br />looping at the lowest possible cost since much of the cost will be borne by the road project and the expensive requirement for boring and jacking <br />may be replaced by the cheaper open -cut construction method. Watermain looping provides the advantage of increased pressure and fire flows, and <br />enhanced system reliability. The watermain also needs to be lowered as the intersection is going to be reconstructed up to three feet lower. <br />Expenditures <br />2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Total <br />Improvements Other than Build 35,000 35,000 <br />Total <br />Funding Sources <br />35,000 <br />35,000 <br />2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Total <br />Water Utility Fund 35,000 35,000 <br />Total <br />35,000 35,000 <br />Revised 12/2010 <br />Page 290 <br />
