City Engineer Gus Psihoyos is recommending acceptance of the Heeb Street Retaining
Wall Reconstruction Project, as completed by Drew Cook & Sons Excavating, Inc., in
the final contract amount of $75,586.40, which is a 23.3% decrease from the original
contract in the amount of $98,567.00.
During the construction of the retaining wall, it was decided not to replace the sanitary
sewer main in the vicinity of the wall due to egress concerns of the residents on the
street. The sanitary sewer and water main will be replaced as a separate project.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.
