SUMMARY
The Utilities Division of the Department of Public Works & Utilities replaces the City's undersized or structurally damaged sewer mains through annual capital improvement projects. The Sewer Line Replacement Project FY24 (named such because the multi-year project started in FY24) will improve the capacity and maintain the operability of the sewer collection system by replacing approximately 5.6 miles of existing vitrified clay pipe (VCP), asbestos cement pipe (ACP), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe ranging in diameter from 6 to 12-inch with new 8, 10, 12, 16, or 24-inch PVC or HDPE pipe. This project takes place at twenty-nine locations throughout the City and the design for the full project are scheduled to be completed in April 2026.
However, since the A Street portion of the Sewer Line Replacement Project FY24 conflicts with the FY26 Pavement Improvement Project scheduled for construction this summer, staff is bringing the A Street portion now as a standalone project so that the construction of the sewer pipes can be done before the new paving is completed this summer. Staff has completed design work for the A Street Sewer Line Replacement and prepared the bid documents. Staff is requesting Council's approval of the plans and specifications and the calling for bids to be received on March 24, 2026.
