RECOMMENDATION: ~
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
Authorize Staff to go to bid on the Serra Court Drainage
Improvements Project
It is estimated that this project will cost approximately $12,000.
Additional asphalt repair and overlay is not included in the
estimate, but will later be included in the City's Overlay Program.
Construction of these drainage improvements will extend the life of
the pavement and reduce the total maintenance costs for this street.
DESCRIPTION: The ~4nter rains have exacerbated an under~ound spring which
surfaces in the rear yards of two residences at the west end of Serra Court. This spring has now extended
under Serra Court, surfacing in Peppertree Road, and has caused severe damage to the pavement on both
Serra Court and Peppertree Road. Water under the street softens the road subgrade and allows it to flex
m.d break up the asphalt pavement. If preventative measures are not taken at this time, the City will ne yd
to do a full street reconstruction in the near future at a much higher cost.
The purpose oft}tis project is to install a perforated subdrain along and across Serra Court, where it will
tie into a storm drain crossing Dublin Green Drive. The subdrain is designed to pick up and drain off
undergound water before the water flows under the street. Repair and overlay of the street will be
included in a future Overlay Program, for which there will be a separate contract.
As the necessity for this work was not anticipated during the Council's approval of the Capital
Improvement Pro,am for 1996-97, a budget change will need to be made before awarding the bid for this
project.
Staffreconunends that the City Council authorize Staffto go to bid on this project and bring back a
budget revision authorization at the time of award of bid.
