1. Metro King Count~ 2005 Sewer Rate Increase Metro is increasing its 2005 sewer charges
for service and for new connections. They have been charging for new connections since 1990,
and those rates will go up again next year. Generally people pay the Cost up front or over 15
years. There will be a 9% increase in monthly sewer rates, resulting in an average charge of
$32.60 per single-family house in 2005. The connection fee is increasing fi:om $18 per month to
$34.05. Pam C noted it is City policy to pass on increases from Metro. Recommend ordinance
to COW and Regular Meetings.
2. 2004 Small Drainage Bid Award Dennis Craig, Inc. won the contract for the small drainage
projects for this year. There are seven projects, including the S. 180th Street underpass drainage
repair. There was not a map of where the other six projects were, and staff promised there would
be a map when it went to Council. Dennis asked for a rough cost of each of the projects. Funding
for the projects will come from the street fund, although staffis working to get the S. 180th
project funded separately. The lowest price was higher than the engineer's estimate.
Recommend bid award to COW and Council for approval.
3. Fort Dent Storm water Pump Station #19 The City tried to repair Pump Station 19, but it
was too far gone to be repaired. Replacement of the pump station was needed, and some
associated drainage improvements were added. Drainage fi:om the parking lot that now goes to
the river will be diverted to the pond, and will be cleaned a little more than currently. The
winning bid from Western Engineering Constructors, Inc. for $221,588.17 was quite a bit lower
than the engineer's estimate. Recommend bid award to COW and Regular Meeting for
approval.
4. Fort Dent Storm water Construction Services Penhallegon Associates Consuliing
Engineers, Inc. (PACE) won the contract to design the improvements needed at Fort Dent
drainage. Staff would normally do this, but they are too busy to be able to do that just now. The
$50,078 contract will cover about 65 working days in a 90-day period. Dennis thought it was
expensive, but he realized staff couldn't afford to do it. Recommend bid award to COW and
Regular Meeting for approval.
5. Information Notices Committee members appreciated seeing what the citizens will see in
the Hazelnut. They changed the open house in Allentown from 7-9 to 6-8 October 6th.
Information.
6. Other Pam C raised the issue of dead plantings on S. 51st near Bonsai. Staff said they
thought it was past the time the contractor had to keep them alive, but said they would check.
