Service director: 270 lead service lines in Olmsted Falls must be replaced by 2037, Pineway/Mapley/Bagley storm-sewer project to begin in February
Summary
Service Director Joe Borczuch said Cleveland Water indicated the city has 270 residential lead service lines that must be replaced by 2037 under a state mandate. He also said the Pineway/Mapley/Bagley storm sewer project held a preconstruction meeting and is estimated to start in February, with coordination planned between the contractor and Cleveland Water.
Joe Borczuch reported council was briefed by Cleveland Water staff on the lead service line replacement (LSLR) schedule and that the city has 270 residential service lines still containing lead. "My understanding is that the city has 270 residential lines that are still lead. Per the water department’s state mandate they must have them all replaced by 2037," Borczuch said, relaying the utility's direction.
Borczuch said the Pineway/Mapley/Bagley storm sewer project held a preconstruction meeting and is expected to start in February; he described coordination with Cleveland Water to align the storm-sewer construction and water main service-line replacement work and said resident notification materials will be provided. He indicated the initial LSLR work will be on the lines within that storm-sewer project area and that lines are distributed across 14 streets in the community.
