The Infrastructure Committee on Aug. 19 approved a capital improvement project to replace approximately 6,700 linear feet of 8-inch water main and perform related storm-sewer work along Stony Brook Drive, with requested funding of approximately $1,210,000 using cash and revenue-bond dollars.
Utilities staff said design is complete and the project is ready to be bid as soon as materials are available. They estimated a seven-month construction timeline, likely March through September if work does not start earlier.
Council members noted recurring water-main breaks along the corridor and said constituents asked for the upgrade. The motion to approve was moved, seconded and passed 3-0.
Outcome: project approved to proceed to bidding; staff to manage procurement and schedule.
