Public works: water main pressure test, service-line work and ditch stabilization quotes
Summary
Public‑works staff told the council the main water line installation is nearly complete and pressure testing is underway; they plan to begin service-line hookups and presented two quotes for ditch riprap and Flexomat lining work, with costs and scope discussed.
Public‑works staff reported that the main water line installation is substantially complete and that crews were performing a pressure test to confirm the system before beginning individual service‑line hookups. The staff member said the team will coordinate with the water department and customers to set up accounts and confirm wastewater systems are operating properly before connecting service lines.
For drainage work behind industrial properties, staff presented two written quotes: Greenbrier at $66,000 and Oak Enterprises at $70,433 to clear and lay riprap along approximately 500 feet (125 feet to clean and 375 feet to lay riprap). Staff also noted the use of a flexible channel lining product identified in the transcript as 'Flexomat' for the ditch bottom.
Council members discussed next steps, including selecting a contractor, confirming funding, and ensuring other regulatory and permit conditions are met before construction proceeds.
