Sewer cleaning contractor completed about 21 miles of cleaning; manhole inspections and relining planned
Summary
Public works said a contracted crew cleaned roughly 116,000 feet (about 21 miles) of sewer line this year, responded to 12 calls and that the city inspects more than 1,200 manholes annually. Staff plans relining and a sewer realignment through Friendship Park.
John said the city's sewer-cleaning contractor completed about 116,000 feet — roughly 21 miles — of cleaning and camera inspections this year and that crews responded to 12 calls, three of which were issues on city mains. "When they clean, they're getting us in good shape," John said, describing camera work that identifies laterals and settled sections that need repair.
He told the council the city performs annual manhole inspections (more than 1,200 manholes) and plans a sewer relining in a location near a new subdivision and a realignment project that will run through Friendship Park to address capacity and condition concerns. Staff said relining and targeted repairs will continue as budget and project sequencing allow.
