Town of  Westlake  Item # 2 –   Review of Consent  Agenda Items  Town of Westlake Memo To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Town Council From: Jarrod Greenwood, Public Works Superintendent Subject: Regular Workshop Meeting of June 8, 2009 Date: June 1, 2009 ITEM Hear and discuss update on Drainage Improvements in Stagecoach Hills. VISION POINT AND KEY RESULT AREAS This item supports the following Vision Point and Key Result Areas: ;  We are Leaders o  Infrastructure maintenance and planning BACKGROUND Stagecoach experienced significant drainage problems in June 2007. Staff discovered a bar ditch that was not designed to contain the large amount of runoff being diverted to it. As a result of this diversion, water overflowed the bar ditch, drained through private property, and flooded homes along Stagecoach Circle. Staff met with Stagecoach residents at the February 24th neighborhood meeting to present the proposed plans and discuss the scope of the project. Several residents expressed concerns and a desire to have a subsequent on-site meeting on February 27th. This meeting identified some issues that required additional research and revision of plans. Staff had a follow up meeting on April 21st to present the final plans and the appropriate changes to accommodate their concerns. The proposed drainage improvement plans include redirecting the water to its original path, installation of larger driveway culverts (pipe), and regrading (deepen) the bar ditches on the affected properties along Stagecoach Circle and Thornton Drive. The project was advertised in May with one bid being submitted with a base bid amount of $44,013.42 and an alternate bid amount of $66,585.40 for a total cost of $110, 599.82. The base amount includes the minimum amount of bar ditch cleaning, drainage repairs, and culvert installation to provide Stagecoach residents with some drainage relief. The alternate amount includes some additional bar ditch cleaning, drainage repairs, culvert installation, and culvert end treatments (head walls) to provide additional drainage relief. This contract will have a 30 day completion schedule. FUNDING The adopted FY 08/09 budget included $75,000 for the engineering and construction of Stagecoach Drainage Improvements. The cost of engineering is $11,700 and the cost for construction is estimated to be $110,999.82 This will require a budget amendment of $47,300 that will be brought back to Council for approval at a later time and will be paid from the Property Tax Reduction Fund. 4.
