Authorize the Mayor to execute the same. Discussion: A drywell is an underground structure that disposes of unwanted water, most commonly nuisance water, by dissipating it into the ground where it merges with the local groundwater. A drywell will continue to function properly as long as the soil will infiltrate the unwanted water. There are numerous drywells within the City of Palm Desert that no longer provide the required drainage capacity to function properly. When this happens, water begins to pond on the roadway and the drywell becomes a maintenance problem. Staff has identified eighteen drywells that present a continual maintenance problem while providing no useful function (see attached map and list of locations). On February 22, 2008 staff advertized for bids for the removal of these drywells citywide. Bids were received and opened by the City Clerk on March 24, 2008 at 10:00 A.M.
