RECOMM5DED ACTION: That'the City Council approve the plans and•
specifications for the above project and authorize advertising for bids, and
appropriate $14,000 firm the Water Capital Outlay (18.1) Fund and $19,000
from the Wastewater Utility (17.1) Fund.
BACKGROUND 24URNIARN This project corrects two deficiencfcs in the
downtown area. The new 8" water main in Sacramento Street will provide
better water pressure to the businesses in this block. These businesses are
currently tapped into a 2" water main. When 221 South Sacramento Street
washes cherries during the spring season, there is such a draw in the 2" City
main that the other businesses have no water pressure. The new water main
will eliminate this problem.
The City has also had an ongoing problem with a public Wastewater main in the
Post Office parking lot. A sag in this main cannot be fixed because it is
located under a handicap ramp and a wall which was built with the Post Office
remodel project. This project will reroute the upstream customers so that
the City can bandon the problem wastewater main.
