Maintenance report: Inwood adds pumps, plans stormwater diversion on North Douglas Street
Summary
City maintenance reported purchase and servicing of storm pumps, plans to divert stormwater on North Douglas Street to improve pumping efficiency, and intention to solicit resurfacing estimates for Diagonal Street; the pool also needs painting before next season.
Jamie Van Beek presented the city’s monthly maintenance report, saying he has cleaned and serviced all pumps used for pumping excess stormwater during heavy rain. Van Beek said he purchased one new 3-inch pump and two used 2-inch pumps and now has eight trash pumps in good working condition.
Van Beek described a plan to divert stormwater on North Douglas Street to a pit to allow water to be pumped more efficiently. He also said the swimming pool needs to be painted before the next season and said he will obtain estimates for resurfacing Diagonal Street, considering both asphalt and concrete options.
City staff reported these steps as part of regular infrastructure maintenance; no formal council vote was required on the maintenance items reported at the meeting.
