$15M engineering note targeted to priority sewer projects including clarifiers, lift stations and backyard sewer work
Summary
Staff said the $15 million bond‑anticipation note would fund engineering and early construction on high‑priority projects including primary clarifier work, five lift stations, and backyard sewers, with a longer‑term CIP estimated at $105 million.
Consultants and board members said the first tranche of funding would focus on projects that can be advanced quickly once engineering is complete. Staff listed primary clarifier upgrades, rehabilitation of five lift stations and targeted collection system work (including backyard sewers) as priorities to begin under early bond financing.
Plant superintendent Rhonda and consultants described pilot technologies (plate settlers, cloth media) intended to increase primary treatment capacity without full replacement and to reduce capital costs. Dasham told the workshop the long‑term capital improvement plan is estimated at about $105,000,000, and that the $15,000,000 note would let the district complete engineering and start construction on priority items.
