<br />6.1A <br />Pa e 1 <br /> <br />REPORT <br /> <br />To the Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From the Cit Mana er <br /> <br />June 28. 2010 <br /> <br />SUBJECT <br />License agreement between Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board (JPB) and City of <br />Redwood City (the city) for the Sanitary Sewer Replacement Project (Manzanita, <br />Shasta, Spruce, Pine, and Heller). <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Approve, by motion, the license agreement to allow sanitary sewer pipelines to be <br />placed as part of the Sanitary Sewer Replacement Project (Manzanita, Shasta, Spruce, <br />Pine, and Heller), to cross the JPB right-of-way, and authorize the City Manager to <br />execute related documents. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br />Staff proposes this license agreement anticipatory to offering the Sanitary Sewer <br />Replacement Project (Manzanita, Shasta, Spruce, Pine, and Heller streets) for public <br />bidding in late July. The work of this project requires a license agreement between the <br />city and JPB as the proposed pipeline configuration encroaches on JPB's right-of-way. <br />The license agreement establishes the terms and conditions for placing sanitary sewer <br />pipeline, by jack and bore method, that will encroach on JPB's right-of-way at two <br />locations; 1) between Shasta and Spruce streets, and, 2) at Pine Street. <br /> <br />The terms and conditions contained in the proposed license agreement between JPB <br />and the city have been negotiated by staff. They address construction coordination and <br />communications, liability, permit requirements, permit fees, property protection, traffic <br />control, inspections, workers safety, and restoration work required subsequent to <br />construction. <br /> <br />The city systematically replaces sewer infrastructure to ensure the continued reliability <br />of the system. Pipeline and components are identified and prioritized for replacement <br />based on both existing capacity and condition. The Sewer Master Plan identifies <br />potential replacement projects based on capacity. An annual review of service/repair <br />activity identifies potential replacement projects based on condition. <br /> <br />The Sewer Master Plan, completed in 2008, evaluates the viability of the collection <br />system based on capacity limitations. Thirteen replacement projects (approximate total <br />cost of $38 million) are currently identified by the master plan to mitigate existing <br />capacity limitations during peak wet weather flows. The proposed Sanitary Sewer <br />Replacement Project along Manzanita, Shasta, Spruce, Pine, and Heller is identified as <br />a Priority 1 by the Sewer Master Plan. <br /> <br />As well, an annual evaluation of service/repair activity aims to identify aging and <br />deteriorated segments of sewer pipeline for replacement before a failure. Staff from <br />the Building, Infrastructure, and Transportation Department and the Public Works <br />Services Department identify pipeline segments that have required excessive <br />maintenance or have experienced repeated service disruptions. Television cameras <br />are used to further investigate and evaluate the condition of pipeline segments. <br />
