City engineer outlines storm‑sewer, Safe Routes and $2.8M electrical plan
Summary
City staff reported progress on several infrastructure grants and projects: a completed topo survey for a $1.5M storm‑sewer project; ITEP work due early 2026; OSLAD bidding planned Q2 2025; and a $2.8M Regional Site Readiness electrical project to boost capacity for future growth.
Adam Kremer gave the council an update on a slate of capital projects and grant efforts that city staff expect to advance over the next 12–18 months. He said the preliminary topographic survey has been completed for a $1.5 million storm‑sewer project, and preliminary plans are in progress for downtown improvements that include reconstruction of Water Street.
Kremer told the council the ITEP project is scheduled for completion in early 2026, following road work expected to finish by the end of 2025. He said the NOFO for the Unsewered Grant is expected soon and that the topographic survey for Phase II of the Safe Routes to School project will begin after school construction is finished. OSLAD Phase 2 is planned to be bid in the second quarter of 2025, with construction targeted to start in July 2025 after ball season.
The engineer's summary included a total project cost of $2.8 million for a Regional Site Readiness Grant tied to electrical improvements intended to support future growth. Those electrical upgrades, Kremer said, are meant to facilitate increased electrical capacity in the industrial/service areas the city is targeting for development.
