Authorization
REQUEST: Public Works Department/Stormwater Division Providing an Update of the
Emergency Stormwater Piping Replacement at 444/446 Alderwood Court.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this Board item is to keep the City Commission informed as to the
completion of the emergency stormwater pipe replacement at 444/446 Alderwood
Court as authorized at the May 13, 1996 City Commission meeting.
CONSIDERATIONS:
The City Commission authorized emergency repairs to the stormwater piping
system at 444/446 Alderwood Court at the May 13, 1996 City Commission at a cost of up
to $40,000. The City negotiated a change order with the low bidder of Bid #96-006,
Prime Construction Group Inc., for $39,843.00 to perform the emergency repairs. The
work was completed to our satisfaction on August 12, 1996 at a cost of$36,843.00. We
were able to lower the change order price by the City supplying the 12" replacement pipe
at no cost by reusing the 12" PVC water and/or reclaimed water mains that the S.R 434
contractor is replacing that are only 3 years old.
The easement issue was resolved by the owner of 446 Alderwood Court providing
us a temporary construction easement to install the pipe in the permanent easement. The
resident at 444 Alderwood Court is still claiming that his pool deck was damaged from
subsidence created by the stormwater pipe. We believe this is not a valid claim due to the
fact that the pool is twenty feet from the pipe and also a large barbeque pit and slab is

between the pool and stormwater pipe which exhibits no sign of settling. However, the
resident was advised that he could file a claim against the City and the matter would be
turned over to our insurance carner.
IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE:
The replacement of the storm water pipe, driveways, sidewalks and restoration was
completed in three weeks and accepted by the City on August 12, 1996.
