BLOUGH 11 ( CLERK, SOUTH BEND, ING. April 28, 1970 Memo to: South Bend Common Council Subject: Ordinance Appropriating $70,000 from Sewage Disposal Fund The Sewage Disposal Fund is the residual of a General Obligation Bond issue created for the purpose of constructing the interceptor sewer system and other miscellaneous sewers. We have several small sewer projects where .the party needing sewer is willing to pay his share of the cost but cannot pay the total cost of the sewer extension. We are suggesting that the City pay the difference, and that others hooking to this sewer in the future reimburse the City at our standard rate of seven cents (7G) per square foot. There is no reimbursement on the Washington Street sewer because it was planned in 1957 to take care of factories along the river which were bypassed by the interceptor sewer. Easements were obtained at that time; however, due to the uncertainty of the boundaries of downtown renewal the projects were never completed. The projects are as follows: PROJECT I -- Construct a sanitary sewer with lift station in Rosemary Lane from Hartman Drive to Charles Street - Bid Price - - - -- $29,614.85 Engineering - - - -- 721.85 Contingency - - -- 3,000.00 $33,386.70 Less Portage Realty Share 8,360.00 $24,976.70 PROJECT II - Construct a sanitary sewer in Washington Street from Niles Avenue west to River - Estimated Cost -- $18,083.00 Engineering - - - -- 2,800.00 Contingency - - - -- 2,000.00 $22,883.00 PROJECT III -- Construct a sanitary sewer in Madison Avenue from Michigan Street east to the River. -- Quoted cost - - - -- $1800.00 .Contingency - - -- 200.00 $2000.00 Less resident cost 384.00 $1,616.00 PROJECT IV -- Construct a sanitary sewer in Cleveland Road from old city limits to Lilac Road 600' of 24" sewer pipe @ $18.00, $10,800.00 3 Manholes @ $450.00 - - -- 1,350.00 Pavement Repair - - -- 2,000.00 Contingency - - -- _ 2,000.00 $26,150.00 Less Westminster Church share -- 2,590.00 $13,560.00 $63,035.70 The remaining $6,964.30 is requested to be appropriated for small miscellaneous sewer projects that come up from time to time. This will make a total appropriation of $70,000.00. r � S. Taylor City Engineer
