Title
Approval of Engineering Study of Dunbar Road Sewer Line Capacity
Body
SUMMARY: To address ongoing considerations regarding the existing eight miles of sewer line relating to the Dunbar Road area, a formal assessment of its current capacity, including approved developments and future capabilities is necessary. City Engineering Staff has indicated that, based on current geometry, there is no additional capacity available on this line in the Tansi area. To obtain a definitive assessment, it is recommended to hire an engineering firm to conduct an analysis and model of the existing Dunbar sewer collection system. This study would accurately determine the line's capacity, identify any limitations, and recommend potential upgrades or improvements, such as line upsizing or the installation of pump stations, to increase sewer capacity in the area.
Recommended Action
NECESSARY COUNCIL ACTION: Authorize a contract with GRW to conduct a study of the existing sewer line on Dunbar Road to determine its capacity and recommend any necessary upgrades at an amount not to exceed $30,000.
