INTRODUCTION
The enclosed resolution authorizes the award of the construction contract for the Timber
Ridge/Rustic Point Water Main Extension 2017 Project.
DISCUSSION
This project will provide for the installation of 6800 LF of 12" DR-14 Water Main along JFK
Road to serve the area along JFK Road and the Derby Grange Road Housing Urban
Renewal Area. The installation will occur along the east side of JFK Road from near
Grandview United Methodist Church up to the proposed Timber Ridge Estates sub-
division across from Forest Glen Court. This project also includes extending 12" DR-14
water main along Derby Grange Road along the north side from JFK Road to near the
entrance to the Derby Grange Golf facility.
The construction of the improvements will include:
— Installation of approximately 6800 feet of DR-14 water main by directional boring
— Excavation of the subgrade to allow the placement of bedding stone and proper
backfill for the water main at valves and hydrants.
— Removal of asphalt pavement and replacement as required at street crossings and
along Derby Grange Road and JFK Road.
— Installation of 11 fire hydrants.
The Dubuque County Board of Supervisors concurred on the approval of the utility permit
at their May 8, 2017 work session with the County Engineer Anthony Bardgett.
