Summary

City staff reported the Gun Club lift station construction is wrapping up: water service into the building was confirmed, PLCs and electrical integration are underway, a wet test and operator training are planned, and a deep manhole replacement will require extended road closure.

City staff updated the Public Works Committee that work on the Gun Club lift station is approaching completion, with system integrations and testing scheduled soon.

"The interior is looking pretty spiffy," Speaker 7 said, adding that electronics and the electrical system are being integrated and PLCs will be installed before a planned wet test and operator training. Speaker 7 confirmed that the water service crossing Watertown Road into the building had been installed "today."

Committee members discussed a replacement of an on‑site manhole located in a driveway and the need for an extended road closure to accomplish the deep excavation and retention system required for the work. Speakers noted the excavation depth and challenging ground conditions — "37 feet from ground surface," Speaker 7 said — and that contractor crews, not city techs, will perform the confined‑space entries.

Staff said demolition of the existing building is tentatively planned for around September, pending completion of integrations, testing and training; no action was required at this meeting.
