Council authorizes engineering work for Turf, Countryside and Ranch flood project estimated at $2.5M
Summary
The council adopted R‑2026‑29 to hire Engineering Resource Associates for flood‑improvement engineering work; staff said the project is estimated at $2.5 million, with a $250,000 grant secured and a potential federal grant to cover about 75% of costs.
Wheaton councilmembers voted unanimously April 6 to adopt Resolution R‑2026‑29, authorizing Agreement No. 606 with Engineering Resource Associates, Inc. for professional engineering services on the Turf, Countryside and Ranch Flood Improvement Project. City staff reported two proposals were received and described the project as "estimated at $2.5MM." The city has secured a $250,000 grant from Congresswoman Ramirez and is awaiting a federal grant expected to cover roughly 75% of the project cost.
City Manager Michael Dzugan said staff recommended proceeding with engineering work to be ready if the federal grant is awarded, noting that a prompt start is necessary to meet grant timelines. Council approved the contract authorization unanimously.
