SUBMITTED BY: Mark Greenwood, P.E., Director of Public Works
APPLICANT: Coachella Valley Water District

Recommendation:
By Minute Motion:
Authorize a contribution of $60,000 to the Coachella Valley Water
District for extra paving on the Improvement District No. 53 Trunk
Sewer Project.
Discussion:
At the end of 2007, the contractor for the Coachella Valley Water District paved the one-
mile stretch of Hovley Lane West which was affected by a trunk sewer installation
project. The contractor was required to restore the road, at minimum, to its condition
prior to the installation of the trunk sewer line.
Hovley Lane West, as it was prior to the sewer line installation, had no crown in the
middle of the street. When the street was paved, the contractor was required to pave
the street with a crown to force water to the gutters and reduce the likelihood of water
ponding in the street. To build a crown in a street over a short distance does not require
much additional asphalt, but over a one-mile stretch it amounts to several hundred tons
of additional material.

CVWD has requested that the City contribute $60,000 for the additional paving costs
associated with the creation of the crown in the street. The condition of Hovley Lane
West after the sewer installation was substantially better than the street prior to the
work. Therefore, staff recommends that Council, by Minute Motion, authorize a
contribution of $60,000 to the Coachella Valley Water District for extra paving on the
Improvement District No. 53 Trunk Sewer Project. Funds are available in the Street
Resurfacing account: 110-4311-433-3320.
Fiscal Impact: One-time outlay of $60,000.
