This memo requests the City Council approve the attached resolution authorizing
emergency repairs to the storm sewer west of the intersection of North Grandview
Avenue and Rosedale Avenue.
Due to the heavy rain events that occurred on July 22 and 23, 2010, the existing twin
18- and 24 -inch diameter storm sewer pipes under North Grandview Avenue failed and
caused undermining of the pavement and sidewalk areas. (Note attached location map.)
As a result of the Presidential Disaster Declaration for Dubuque County, the City is
eligible for public assistance. Since the storm sewer damages to North Grandview
Avenue occurred on a minor arterial, as per the Federal Functional Classification
System map for Dubuque, repairs are not FEMA eligible. Thus the City submitted a
Detailed Damage Inspection Report and requested approval for Federal ER Funding to
complete the emergency repair work.
The estimate of probable cost for the North Grandview Avenue and Rosedale Avenue
Storm Sewer Repair Project is summarized as follows:
Estimate
Construction Contract $ 55,400
Contingency 5,540
Engineering Design 5,000
Construction Engineering & Inspection 6,000
Total Project Cost $ 71,940
The project funding summary is as follows:

Project, and to solicit informal bids for the project through adoption of the attached
resolution.
