Council approves cooperative drainage agreement with UDOT for I‑15 project, with final legal and engineering review
Summary
Centerville approved a cooperative agreement with UDOT to document ownership and maintenance for drainage facilities tied to the I‑15 reconstruction; staff said UDOT will keep structural integrity while the city will maintain interior pipe cleaning and inspections will be preserved in final language.
City staff described a proposed long‑term cooperative agreement with the Utah Department of Transportation that identifies storm drainage systems through the I‑15 frontage and clarifies ownership and maintenance responsibilities. Lisa and the city engineer explained that UDOT will preserve structural integrity of facilities placed in their right‑of‑way, while the city will continue to maintain interior cleaning and routine inspection responsibilities.
Staff said the agreement is linked to UDOT's Part 7 design‑build exhibit and asked the council to approve the agreement subject to final city attorney and city engineer review of Exhibit A. Council members raised questions about possible reconstruction costs and liability if UDOT's construction altered the city's infrastructure; staff said their engineers have modeled the sizing and that inspection and field‑review language will be included prior to final execution. The council approved the cooperative agreement by unanimous vote, with final editorial and inspection‑language approvals retained by city staff.
