From: Chuck Gilman, P.E., PMP, Public Works Director
Agenda Caption: Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding the South
Knoll-The Glade Utility Rehabilitation Project. (This item is also on the Consent Agenda,
Item #2d)
Relationship to Strategic Goals: Core Services and Infrastructure- Efficiently, effectively,
and strategically placed and infrastructure that maintains citizen’s health, safety, and

Recommendation(s): Staff is recommending that the Council receive the presentation and

Summary: The construction contract for this project is included on the consent agenda
for action. The South Knoll-The Glade Utility Rehabilitation Project includes the
rehabilitation of water and wastewater utility infrastructure in the area generally bounded
by Glade St, Haines, Langford, and Bee Creek Drive. Both the water and wastewater
infrastructure in the area is in need of replacement due to an increase in service disruptions,
deteriorating lines, and a need to improve fire protection.
In addition, favorable bids were received on this project, so the sidewalks in the area that
are in need of repair, but that are not directly impacted by the rehabilitation of the water
and sewer lines will repaired as part of this project. Additionally, each street that is
impacted by the installation of new water or wastewater utilities will receive a 2-inch
overlay of new asphalt. All utilities crossing Southwest Parkway will be installed using
trenchless technologies, so the street will not be overlaid with new asphalt.
Budget & Financial Summary: Funds in the amount of $2,265,192 are currently
budgeted for this project in the Water Capital Projects Fund and funds in the amount of
$3,005,683 are currently budgeted for this project in the Wastewater Capital Projects Fund.
Funds in the amount of $481,679.89 have been expended or committed to date, leaving a
balance of $4,789,195.11 for construction and related expenses.

project is $50,434.60.
