Order Feasibility Report - Hawkins Pond Lift Station & Forcemain, City Project #328CITY OF ROSEMOUNT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR ACTION CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: January 16, 2001 AGENDA ITEM: Order Feasibility Report — Hawkins. Pond Lift Station & Forcemain, City Project #328 AGENDA SECTION: Consent PREPARED BY: Bret Weiss AGENDA NO. Acting City Engineer 6 — ATTACHMENTS: Resolution I APPROVED BY: I �� ___j The item is on the agenda for Council to consider ordering the preparation of a Feasibility Report for the Hawkins Pond Lift Station and Forcemain Improvements, City Project #328. The Hawkins Pond area experienced flooding during the July, 2000 rainfall. Staff recently reviewed drainage issues that resulted from the storm with the Utility Commission and it was decided that construction of this lift station was an immediate concern. The Commission recommended moving up the schedule for completion from 2003 to 2001. An associated project that will be included with this project is the Wensmann Pond bank stabilization. The Hawkins Pond and Birger Pond outlets will discharge into Wensmann Pond. Upon initiation of Birger Pond pumping operations last year, the banks of Wensmann Pond started to exhibit some erosion. Further, several fences and trees are located within the pond easement and should be relocated. We plan to meet with the neighborhood to discuss options to resolve these issues and then incorporate the recommendations into the Hawkins Pond construction plan. The funding for the project will come from the Storm Water Core Fund. This project was originally intended to be constructed in 2003, but due to significant potential flooding issues was recommended to be moved into the 2001 CIP. The completion of the Feasibility Report will include separate neighborhood meetings with both Hawkins Pond and Wensmann neighborhoods. Staff recommends adopting the attached resolution to direct Staff to begin work on the Hawkins Pond Lift Station and Forcemain Improvements.
