Summary
Committee members said the city is interviewing firms for a citywide stormwater study after flooding on Academy in Samuel Street; they also reported Liberty Street work will begin around June 15 and that the awarded contract came in at about $1,100,000 with coordination planned with CTOP/CTUB.
The Infrastructure Committee discussed progress on stormwater repairs and a larger citywide stormwater study at its Jan. 27 meeting, and confirmed that a Liberty Street paving/repair contract was awarded to Gantz with work to start mid-June.
Committee members said a flooding event on Academy in Samuel Street prompted engineering work that will be bid to a contractor; an early reported repair estimate noted in committee remarks was 'Originally, it says it's gonna come in around 250,000. We got down to 1.39' (the transcript did not specify units for the latter figure). The committee also reported that Liberty Street work, awarded to Gantz Excavating, will commence around June 15 and that the total project 'came in about $1,100,000.'
The committee is interviewing firms for a citywide stormwater management study (six responses, three interviews scheduled; Thrasher and Kimley-Horn already interviewed and Greenway was scheduled next) and emphasized the value of GPS/GIS mapping of stormwater infrastructure as part of that study.
