Water-main replacement progressing; 8-inch blowout repaired on Gobbler’s Knob Road
Summary
Town Superintendent Matt reported the water-main replacement is nearing completion for most alleys and that an 8" main blowout at Gobbler’s Knob Road and Westside was repaired the same day it occurred. The council heard timeline notes about pressure testing and planned hookups.
Superintendent Matt told the council the water-main replacement project has advanced with almost all alleys between South Cle Elum Way and Sixth Street now having new mainline installed; service hookups will begin after pressure testing and bacterial sampling clearances. Matt also reported an 8" main blowout at Gobbler’s Knob Road and Westside that occurred early Friday morning and was repaired later that day.
"There was an 8” main blow out at Gobbler’s Knob Road and Westside last Friday morning at 2:00 A.M. and was fixed around 2:00 P.M.," Matt reported via his written update presented by Clerk Luanne. The minutes note that residents will receive notification before any planned water outages while tie-ins proceed.
The superintendent also said Washington Avenue has been crack sealed by the County in preparation for a chip-seal project around the end of July funded by TIB. The transcript does not include detailed timelines for each hookup; work continues under regular project meetings.
