City Engineer Rich Hefti presented to Council the feasibility report for Project #177,
Section 30 Storm Sewer Improvements. Steve Campbell, engineering consultant,
presented a brief summary, noting that this was an expansion of the original feasibility
study to include the southeast quarter of Section 30, and explained how the drainage is
accomplished into Hawkins Pond. The proposed storm sewer system would improve
overall drainage, recover both industrial and residential properties previously used for
temporary ponding and transform Twin Puddles Park from a retention to a detention
drainage area, allowing 100010 accessibility for recreational purposes. Total cost of the
project would be approximately $470,000. See Clerk's File 1987-26.
