On
February 9, 2009, under Roll Call Number 09-230, the City Council authorized
submittal of four project applications under the Infrastructure Assistance
Program. The projects were identified as
those being the most competitive in the grant selection criteria. Important criteria considered were the direct
relationship of the project to the 2008 disaster, threat to health, safety, or
welfare, benefit to low and moderate income persons and burden associated to
the same group if local revenue was used to accomplish the project, and the
ability to construct the projects quickly.
The four project applications submitted were as follows:
- $2,000,000 for construction
of a storm sewer lining project in the Livingston area south of the Des
Moines River. This project will
install a cured-in-place liner in the existing storm sewer. The storm sewers were damaged in several
locations within this area during the 2008 flooding and rain events, and almost $540,000 has been spent in emergency
repairs. This project will reduce
the incidence of damage due to future high river levels.
- $1,200,000 for construction
of a sanitary sewer lining project in the East Highland Hills area. This project will install a
cured-in–place liner in existing sanitary sewers in areas where damage to
the sanitary sewer occurred in the 2008 flood due to extremely high wet
weather sewer flows. This project
will prevent future sanitary sewer collapses and help protect the
community health.
- $2,500,000 for the
installation of emergency stand-by power generators in the five storm
water pump stations in the
