Summary

The city manager updated the council that construction is underway on the 60th/Seventh Avenue sanitary sewer project, funded by a roughly $2 million state grant, with completion slated for summer and in-house engineering performing design and inspection.

The University Place city manager told the council the 60th/Seventh Avenue sanitary sewer project is under construction and is funded primarily by a state grant of approximately $2,000,000.

The manager said contractor mobilization is complete and work focuses first on installing the new sewer pipe and manholes; side sewer connections will follow. Staff said the project connects the new line to an existing pump station at 30th and Fifth on the south side of the city, and that Pierce County will own and maintain the pump station. The city's engineering crew designed the project in-house and is providing construction inspection services, staff said, and the project is slated for completion this summer.

Council members thanked staff for the update and asked for a follow-up on budget and schedule performance closer to the project's finish. The manager said staff will report back if issues arise; no formal council action was taken during the update.
