PUBLIC WORKS IN PROGRESS
A) Underground Storage Tanks
The Public Works Department publicly advertised for bids to upgrade
two existing fuel tanks located at the Service Center and relocate
and install the underground fuel tank at the Police Department to the
Service Center to meet or exceed all EPA requirements.
The bid opening was held at 2:00 p.m., April 9th, 1990. Unfortunately,
only one bid was received. The only bidder informed us that the
specifications would not bring the tanks up to EPA requirements.
Therefore, we are currently in the process of requesting the Texas
Water Commission review the specifications and make any recomrrended
changes. Upon receipt of changes, we wi 11 re-adverti se and set a new
bid opening date.
B) Street Department
During the past two weeks with the County working on Jackson and Cheek
Sparger, the entire street department crews have provided all the traffic
control devices and flagmen.
Since the Council will not be in Colleyville for the remainder of the
week, the street department crews wi 11 be able to patch the enti re
city by Thursday evening, depending upon the weather.
C) Inspecti ons
90 Wastewater Improvements 9-438
As of this date, the line's on Jo Will, Cedar and Bransford have been
installed. Jo Will and Cedar lines have been tested and are acceptable.
Bransford line will be tested on April 11, 1990. The next line will
be Frontier. The street repair crew will begin on Jo Will during next
week.
Monticello Phase IV
As this project nears completion, a final inspection walk is needed.
The inlet box top still has to be poured, which should be completed
April 11, 1990. This estimated final date is April 16, 1990.
Pebble Hill
The paving contractor is still in this addition completing hand pour
sections. This project will not be ready for a final inspection until
the end of April.
Hidden Oaks
All pavement stabilization has been completed. The paver should move
into the addition by the end of the week. There is no estimated
com~letion date at this time.
Highland Meadows Phase IV
A different contractor, who has been laying storm drains, has some
water services which will have to be replaced from the main. Also,
the contractor had to lower two (2) water mains which will result in
additional bacteria samples. This project is progressing slowing,
but the project will completed by the end of April.
Woodbury I and II
All water, sewer and storm drains have been installed and tested except
for the addition of 200' of a 6" sewer main on the northeast end of
the project. This line should be tested by the middle of next week.
When the testing is complete, the pavers may move onto the site.
Fox Meadows Drainage
This job has been rained out several times. The pipe has been installed,
the channel cut and the Ri p-Rap 1 ayed. The contractor has poured the
bottoms to the wingwall and junction box. To date, it has been too
muddy to complete. No estimated completion date can be given at this
time.
D) Building Inspection Department
