CREEKSIDE SUBDIVISION - Water Department Request to Up -Size Water
Main Extension and Construct a "Loop" Connection Associated with
the Watpr Main Extension.
Director Linnane stated that Creekside Subdivision will be
constructing a water main extension along Fish Creek Road beginning
in January. The Water Department is requesting to up -size the 6"
water line extension to an 8" line and also construct a "loop"
connection between the new main extension and the existing lines.
The Creekside contractor is willing to perform the work at the same
unit price given to the developer. This unit price does not
include bedrock excavation and, prior to commencement of the Town
work, an agreement will be signed between the Town and the
developer. The Committee recommends approval of the request to
expend from the 1992 Water Line Loop Project budget, the following:
1. Approximately $6,100 to up -size to an 8" line;
2. Approximately $17,000 for a "loop connection";
3. Employ the construction management services of Rocky
Mountain Consultants at a verbal, not -to -exceed quote of
$2,500.
Pertaining to the cost of installing an 8" water main and fire
hydrant along Fish Creek Road, Mr. Palmer requested the Town share
in these costs. The Committee requested Mr. Palmer submit a formal
request for reimbursement to staff, followed by presentation of the
request at a future Committee meeting.
CONTRACT LINE POLICY FOR TOWN INSTALLED WATER MAINS - Request to
Adopt a Policy.
The Water Department has recently constructed water mains in the
following areas:
1. Portions along the new Moccasin Bypass.
2. Western Interconnect Phase I - portion near Elkhorn Club
Estates.
3. Marys Lake Road - portion from Strong Avenue to Marys
Lake Bureau of Reclamation property.
The "Water Utility Policies and Standards" adopted July 1989 allows
developers who construct a water main to be reimbursed from
developers who connect into that water main at a later date. Staff
is requesting adoption of a contract line policy for Town
constructed water mains with the Town as the beneficiary. This
policy would only apply to property that did not have water service
available to it prior to construction of the line. The proposed
contract fee structure would be in effect beginning January 1, 1992
and conclude ten years thereafter. The above referenced request
applies only to the three projects mentioned above, on all new taps
connecting to these lines. The Committee recommends this item be
