Title
RESOLUTION NO. 2276 - INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT WITH CDID NO. 1 FOR CONSTRUCTION OF DEBRIS SCREEN ON CUTOFF SLOUGH AT 36TH AVENUE
COUNCIL STRATEGIC INITIATIVE ADDRESSED:
Provide sustainable water quality and environmental infrastructure
CITY ATTORNEY REVIEW: REQUIRED
SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Consolidated Diking Improvement District No. 1 (CDID #1) and City staff have negotiated an interlocal agreement to construct and maintain a debris screen on the Cutoff Slough culverts at 36th Avenue. The twin culverts at this location collect vegetation, woody debris, garbage, and the occasional beaver dam. Access to remove debris is difficult and dangerous for CDID #1 staff, and the accumulation of debris increases the risk of upstream flooding.
The proposed debris screen will prevent debris from entering or blocking the culverts and improve the ability and safety for CDID #1 staff to remove debris, thus reducing the risk of upstream flooding. After construction, CDID #1 will be responsible to maintain the screen. Should the screen require replacement in the future, the City and CDID #1 would share equally in the cost to replace the screen.
FINANCIAL SUMMARY:
The estimated cost to design and construct the debris screen is $30,000, of which one-half will be paid by the City from the Stormwater Fund.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion approving Resolution No. 2276.
