On January 21, 2020, City Council authorized the execution of a professional services agreement with AE2S to perform a feasibility study for the West End (Low Bluff) Lift Station and Forcemain Project, SEWER-24-001.
The feasibility study has been completed and is attached for Council review. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the feasibility of extending trunk sanitary sewer improvements, and identify feasible lift station site locations and force main alignments that can serve the west end of the community. The report also addresses the estimated improvement costs and funding.
Based on unknown land development scenarios, City Council is being requested to provide guidance on the alternates for the needed sewer lift station and forcemain to serve the future developments in the west end of the community.
A presentation will be provided at the City Council meeting (see attached) | | |

It should be noted that while the funding is shown as the Sanitary Sewer Fund, this is the short-term funding source. The long-term, actual funding will be fully generated and paid by property owners/developers within the service area through the Trunk Sanitary Sewer, Lateral Sanitary Sewer and Sewer Connection fees once the land is developed and/or connected to the sewer. The project costs are 100 percent recoverable from the area it will serve (e.g. future development area) and no costs are absorbed by other property owners. | | |
