City manager details $20M bond projects and a 10‑year water/sewer plan; $200M+ needs identified
Summary
City Manager reported a 10‑year water and sewer master plan (framed in a 15‑year outlook), estimated over $200,000,000 in projects across 15 years, a $20,000,000 bond issue with Lift Station 1 as the first major project, and an additional $3,000,000 allocated for I&I repairs.
City Manager (S3) updated the commission on capital projects tied to the recently issued bond program and the city’s water/sewer master plan. “We have approximately identified 200,000,000 plus projects that we wanna accomplish over the next 15 years,” S3 said, and described the first major project under the new bond as Lift Station 1, which is proceeding under design and was part of a $20,000,000 bond package passed this summer.
Manager S3 said the Lehi Station 1 estimate had been about $15 million and is “coming 13 ish” in current estimates, and that the council also approved an additional $3,000,000 for I&I (inflow and infiltration) repairs and pipe replacement. The manager described Parkwood Terrace as a substantial ongoing project (noted at roughly $12 million), and said the city completed a $1,000,000 police management software project. Staff warned that rapid execution followed the bond issue to avoid higher construction costs and that design firms are working on multiple projects now.
Commissioners asked questions about sequencing and impact fees for oversizing future stations; staff said they will explore impact‑fee options so developers share the cost of future capacity expansion.
