Resolution #96-40 Approving Plans and Specifications and Authorizing I Advertisement of Bids for the Old Highwa)' 10 Watermain Improvement I Mr. Stonehouse presented the completed plans of the Old Highway 10 watermain project and used an overhead to point out the location of the watermain and sanitary sewer. He noted the I problem at 4355 Old Highway 10 and that the base of the trees is 15 to 18 feet above the existing pavement elevation. Mr. Stonehouse explained that the existing sanitary sewer main lies parallel to the edge of the roadway, approximately 8 to 10 feet west of the pavement edge. Since State I standards call for a 1 O-foot horizontal separation between sanitary sewer lines and watermains, staff recommends the watermain be installed approximately 20 feet west of the roadway edge. To protect and avoid disturbing the large pine trees, he recommended the use of a trench box. I Mr. Stonehouse advised that this may increase job costs by approximately $5,000 but will save a substantial number of trees and will keep the project within the right-of-way. Mayor Probst pointed out the proposed resolution also establishes a special meeting on July 15, I 1996 to deal with receipt and authorization of the contract to allow the City to meet the County's schedule for the proposed project. eI MOTION: Malone moved and Aplikowski seconded a motion to adopt Resolution No. 96- 40, Approving Plans and Specifications and Authorizing Advertisement of Bids I for the Old Highway 10 Watermain Improvement.
