Title
Discussion and action on water line extension on Ivey Road
Body
SUMMARY:
The City has received a request for a water line main extension that is located outside the existing city limits.
· Ivey Road: Staff is recommending a 2 inch line approximately 2,300 feet to be installed in the ROW of Ivey Road. The estimated cost for materials of this project is: $4,047.65 (excluding tap fees)
The project was reviewed by the Crossville Regional Planning Commission at their April 17, 2014 meeting. The Planning Commission voted to recommend to City Council that the project should move forward with the staff recommendation of a 2 inch line being installed.
By the current Municipal Code § 18-108:
"Customers desiring water main extensions pursuant to this section must pay all of the material cost of making the extensions. In addition, the applicable tapping fees will be required. In this regard, it will be necessary for customers to deposit with the city an amount equal to the estimated cost of the materials"
Staff recommends approval of the water line extension for Ivey Road contingent upon the receipt of payment for material cost from the customers requesting the water main extension.
Attached are the map of the project area and a letter from Jerry Garrison, Catoosa Utility Department Director. The letter mentions two extensions, however; the request for a water main extension down Spencer Lane has been withdrawn.
Recommended Action
NECESSARY COUNCIL ACTION: Approve or deny the request for water main extension on Ivey Road.
