TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: Steven M. Gohde, Assistant Director of Public Works�(`���
RE: Amend 2014 Capital improvements Program (CIP) to move Funds from the Armory
Area Detention Basin Project to Marion Road Storm Sewer Outfall Project ($495,000)
BACKGROUND
An outfall to the Marion Road storm sewer needs to be constructed to relieve flooding along
Marion Road and to provide a point of connection to the storm sewer for the Rivers II
development. This pipe will also provide a connection poin�for the vacant lot west of the Rivers
II development. By constructing a single outfall, the riverwalk will only be disturbed in one area.
ANALYSIS
This project was not included in the 2014 CIP. The estimated cost of this project is $495,000.
However, the Armory Area Detention Basin construction project was budgeted in the 2014 CIP
for $3,800,000. This work was awarded for under $2,300,000, which leaves funds available in
the Storm Water Utility to fund this project.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no fiscal impact to this fund transfer.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend amending the 2014 CIP to move funds from the Armory Area Detention Basin
project to the Marion Road Storm Sewer Outfall project.
Approved:
