Sedona approves replacement and upsizing of Northview sewer line at up to $593,920
Summary
The City Council unanimously approved a cooperative 'linking agreement' with Keir Civil Corporation to replace and upsize segments of a problematic Northview sewer main, authorizing a contract not to exceed $593,920 and noting some costs will shift to next year's sewer rehab budget.
The Sedona City Council unanimously approved a linking agreement with Keir Civil Corporation for the Northview Sewer Line Replacement Project, authorizing construction work in an amount not to exceed $593,920.
City staff described the project as replacing about 400 feet of an existing 6-inch sewer main and upsizing approximately 850 feet of line to 8 inches to provide additional capacity. Presenters said the current pipe has multiple sags and recurring grease buildup that has resulted in sanitary sewer overflows and requires monthly cleaning; staff said a properly functioning sewer line would normally be cleaned on roughly a five-year rotation.
Public works staff said Keir Civil Corporation was selected based on prior performance and the availability of local construction crews. Staff also said the contract amount exceeds the current year's budget for the project; the city will use funds from the next year's planned sewer line rehabs to cover the overage.
A council member moved to approve the linking agreement; the motion was seconded and carried by unanimous vote.
No construction timeline or anticipated start date was specified at the meeting. Staff noted the project aims to reduce maintenance demands and avoid further sanitary sewer overflows in the Northview area.
