Board approves $3,500 MRI proposal to widen E3 basin control structure
Summary
Citing the need to increase outflow capacity, the board approved MRI Construction Proposal #606 for $3,500 to widen the E3 Basin control structure weir to maximum width; the district engineer will provide before-and-after photos and consider adding a manual gate.
The River Ridge CDD approved MRI Construction Proposal #606, a $3,500 contract to widen the opening on the E3 Basin control structure to improve water outflow. The motion was made by Kurt Blumenthal, seconded by Bob Schultz, and passed unanimously.
"The current control structure going out to the Florida Power & Light easement is slightly shy of the maximum width and the proposal entails MRI using a concrete saw to widen the weir width to the maximum to get the most water out of the community," said Charlie Krebs, the district engineer. The board asked Krebs to provide before-and-after photographs, project details and to investigate whether a manual open/close gate could be installed near the structure.
Cleo Adams presented MRI Construction Proposal #606 and the board approved the work, which district staff said is intended to increase capacity for drainage control. The vote was recorded as unanimous; staff will deliver the project photos and specifications to the board and follow up on the manual gate inquiry.
