Authorization
REQUEST: The Utility Department is Requesting Supplemental Appropriation in the
amount of $14,545.00 for emergency sewer repairs.
PURPOSE: The purpose ofthis item is to provide a supplemental appropriation to the funds
encumbered in Consent Agenda Item 202 of 2/23/2004 for relining sewer mains due to
an additional emergency sewer line repair needed on Pearl Road.
CONSIDERA TIONS:
This supplemental appropriation is needed to cover the cost of an emergency sewer relining
project needed to avoid further failure of the 8" sewer main on Pearl Road. Failure of this 395 foot
run of sanitary sewer pipe has already resulted in repair costs of approximately $6,500.00. Televising
of the line has shown this section to be in very poor condition presenting a public safety problem as
more roadway will be lost due to the continued collapse of this clay line. Open cut repairs have not
resolved the problem.
The City Commission approved on February 23, 2004, the piggybacking of a Broward County
Bid for $96,000 of sewer relining. Pearl Road was not included in that authorization. The estimated
cost for the relining based on the same piggyback bid is $14,545.00.
FUNDING:
The work will require a supplemental appropriation of $14,545 for the Utility Enterprise fund
(3600) balance. The fund balance was estimated at $2.5 million as of 10/1/2003.
