Introduction
This report requests that the city Council award a contract for
the construction of storm drainage facilities on Second Street to
Jana contracting Company in the amount of $49,6l0.00.
Background
As part of the FY 1985-86 budget, the City Council appropriated
funds to construct a supplemental storm drain in 26th Street
(project #661-919) which would tie into existing downstream
drains. However, since the original project was proposed staff
has determined that there is insufficient capacity in the
downstream drains. Therefore, the original project is no longer
feasible.
Portions of the funds available in account #31-760-661-000-919,
originally intended for the 26th Street storm drain, have been
expended for other smaller storm drainage projects to eliminate
local flooding.
The project proposed in this report will
alleviate local flooding in the 2500 block of Second Street.
A Notice Inviting Bids was published on February 12th, 13th, and
16th, 1987.
Plans and specifications were issued to eleven
