A RESOLUTION APPROVING EMERGENCY SEWER REPAIRS AT
CURRY FARMS DRAINAGE WAY - PW116C
WHEREAS, the City received heavy rains on September 4, 2005 causing the Curry Farms
drainage way to erode a large portion of the embankment and ditch bottom resulting in the sanitary
sewer to heave and become unearthed in some areas;
WHEREAS, staff does not feel this sewer main should remain in its present condition
because the instability of the soil may cause the pipe to crack and cause a sewer spill and may wash
the pipe away;
WHEREAS, staff has met on site with a contractor and geotechnical and erosion control
consultant who have estimated the cost to correct the problem to be $35,000;
WHEREAS, funding for this project is proposed from half Stormwater Utility Fund and
half from the Sewer Utility Fund.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Chanhassen City Council:
1. Approve expenditure of funds not to exceed $35,000 for emergency sewer repair and
drainage way stabilization at the Curry Farm drainage way.
Passed and adopted by the Chanhassen City Council this 12th day of September, 2005.
