City of Centerville <br /> Council Meeting Minutes <br /> October 8,2014 <br /> 7. Approval of Change Order for Centerville Road Reconstruction Project — See Engineer's <br /> Letter <br /> Engineer Statz stated that it was understood throughout the project's design that there would be a <br /> conflict with two of MCES's sanitary sewer forcemains and the proposed City trunk storm sewer <br /> that cross under Centerville Road near Meadow Lane. It was planned that the forcemains would <br /> be lowered beneath the new trunk storm sewer as this was the most economically feasible option <br /> and has been completed on numerous other projects throughout the metro area. Engineer Statz <br /> went on to say that upon submission for permits by the contractor, the MCES is now requiring <br /> additional air release manholes and clean out manholes for the forcemains. The contractor <br /> estimates an additional $91,000 for the new structures and equipment. Staff has considered <br /> alternative options and chosen the most economical redesign of the storm sewer to be placed <br /> underneath the existing forcemains of which the County will share 25% of the cost. The <br /> contractor estimates this to be approximately $31,500 for the City's portion, however, it will also <br /> require and additional $4,000 for design and ditch lowering. Engineer Statz stated that the <br /> contractor desired to commence work as soon as possible and a change order would be <br /> forthcoming. Engineer Statz stated that a benefit of this work would be lowering the ditch which <br /> would assist residents on east side of Centerville Road with drainage issues and cleaning of an <br /> additional 230 fee of the city owned ditch along the south side of LaMotte Park. Engineer Statz <br /> suggested taking the soil from the ditch trenching be placed within the park in an area of unused <br /> which would act as a berm and be seeded. <br /> Discussion ensued regarding the Parks and Recreation Committee's knowledge of the soil <br /> placement, Engineer Statz's knowledge of this issue prior to this point, potential for odor release <br /> from the air release manholes, venting and filters are needed and warrantee period. Engineer <br /> Statz stated that he would contact the Parks and Recreation Committee and felt that the <br /> warrantee period was one year. <br /> Motion by Council Member Fehrenbacher, seconded by Council Member Paar to Approve <br /> a Change Order for the Centerville Road Reconstruction Proiect Relating to the design <br /> and Installation of the City's Trunk Storm Sewer Beneath MCES' Forcemains in an <br /> Amount Not to Exceed $35,500. Council Member King opposed. Motion passed. <br /> 8.
