Background:
body
A private development project (22-1072 David Boulevard Apartments) has a proposed multi-family development with a total of 297 units and a clubhouse located off S. McCall Rd. in West County.
In February 2022, CCU held a Design Review Team (DRT) meeting with the Engineer of Record for this development. At that meeting, there was a discussion to limit the number of lift stations and upsize the proposed Lift Station (LS) to accommodate the existing Low Pressure Sewer (LPS) area and serve additional Commercial properties surrounding the project. CCU is experiencing problems with the existing LPS system due to numerous deep bores and very long distance to existing LS#872 where the wastewater flow from the LPS system discharges. It was understood that this proposal would require a cost share agreement for the upsizing of the LS.
CCU listed 2 options in the attached White Paper. After evaluation of both options, the decision was reached to select option #2 at a CCU cost of $100,000. It is in CCU’s best interest to install the necessary infrastructure now and only pay the difference in LS depth and pump sizes.
The Engineer’s Opinion Probable of Cost (EOPC) estimates that CCU’s cost share for the proposed upsizing improvements is $100,000.
CCU is requesting the BCC provide direction as to the proposed upsizing of lift station as presented.
If Board approves moving forward, the department will work with legal to draft the cost share agreement which will be presented to the BCC at a future Board meeting.
