Title
Approval of emergency sewer line repair near Stanley Street
Body
SUMMARY: The sewer line shown on the attached image, with a red outline, clogged the Wednesday before Thanksgiving with sewer overflowing from the manhole close to Crossville Medical Group. The line could not be fully cleaned because the jetter head could not pass the blockage. The line was cleaned enough to stop the overflow.
Several large pieces of the clay line were washed out into the manhole while jetting. The City requested Bobby Luttrell and Sons, LLC, the company under contract with the CDBG sewer rehab project, to attempt to video the line and they were unable to video the line because of the clay line collapsing.
Luttrell and Sons, LLC has been hired to pipe burst the line as per the attached estimate utilizing the unit bid prices in the CDBG project. This will require them to remobilize their equipment and crews that perform the pipe bursting. We don’t believe that the point repair will be required, but asked them to show it on the quote just in case it is needed. The pipe bursting and the point repair is the bid price from the CDBG project. The mobilization is not a bid item, but is a fair price to bring in the necessary equipment to perform the work. City monies will be left over from the CDBG project to cover this repair.
City Staff has considered this repair to be an emergency and recommends the approval.
