Body
BACKGROUND
This action will authorize a construction services contract with John Burns Construction Company of Texas, Inc., for the replacement and rehabilitation of approximately 28,870 feet of water and wastewater main improvements. This includes the installation of approximately 140 feet of 4-inch, 920 feet of 6-inch, 13,150 feet of 8-inch, and 3,360 feet of 12-inch water mains, and approximately 70 feet of 6-inch, 6,110 feet of 8-inch, 550 feet of 12-inch, 30 feet of 18-inch, 10 feet of 42-inch and 370 feet of 48-inch wastewater mains. In addition, the improvements include the rehabilitation of 3,680 feet of 8-inch, 180 feet of 12-inch, 120 feet of 18-inch and 180 feet of 21-inch wastewater mains.
The existing mains targeted for replacement and rehabilitation were built between 1935 and 1982. These mains are contributing to an increase in maintenance costs, as well as service interruptions. The installation of the proposed segments will improve the capacity of the water and wastewater systems and reduce maintenance costs.
