Creek Drive water‑main replacement planned to add three hydrants and ~1,150 feet of new main
Summary
NIES Engineering’s proposal for the Creek Drive project would replace roughly 1,150 linear feet of 4‑inch cast‑iron main with 6‑inch PVC, add three fire hydrants, and has an approved EGLE construction permit; the council authorized contract work subject to attorney review and a $24,000 fee cap.
NIES Engineering described the Creek Drive project as a replacement of existing 4‑inch cast‑iron water main with new 6‑inch PVC to increase reliability, water quality and fire protection. The proposal specifies approximately 1,150 linear feet of new main from Chickagami Trail to Grand Beach Road and the addition of three fire hydrants; the Creek Drive work already has an approved EGLE construction permit, the minutes state.
Council members said they want to receive bids by early September to allow construction this fall. NIES’ scope for Creek Drive is limited to assistance during the bid process to re‑bid work previously designed by others; final design and permitting responsibilities differ between Creek Drive and the Lake Shore Drive project.
