DESCRIPTION:
This project is the second phase of the City's Drainage Inlet Grate
Replacement Program. The program, which begain in Fiscal Year 1989-90, will
replace all existing drainage inlet grates in the City with new, bicycle-
proof grates which are safer for bicyclists and which will reduce maintenance
and liability exposure. In Phase I, 326 grates were installed; the remaining
170 grates will be installed in Phase II.
Due to the low cost of replacement in Phase I, more new grates were installed
than expected. Therefore, it is anticipated that the cost for Phase II will
be significantly lower than the budget.
It is recommended that the City Council authorize Staff to advertise for bids
for Phase II of the Drainage Inlet Grate Replacement Program.
