Update (11.01.2023):

Stantec Inc is moving into the design phase of the project.  During the early stages of the design process, crews will be in the neighborhood conducting various investigations to collect information that will help them figure out what pipes need repair and what construction methods to use. Over the next several months, crews will conduct a variety of activities, including pipe and maintenance hole inspections, survey work, utility locates, and soil and pavement sampling throughout the project area. These activities may temporarily disrupt and delay traffic and will occur over time, not all at once. These activities will help to avoid conflicts with other underground utilities during construction, including water, gas, and telecommunications lines. They will also help the design team clearly understand features of the existing landscape so that we can minimize construction impacts. 

Some residents in the area may receive letters from the City requesting permission for crews to enter various affected properties.  Included with these letters will be a Permit of Entry form for residents to fill out and return to the City.  It is important to return these forms to the City as early as possible, so the City and its contractors have time to properly investigate the pipes on the property.  Good quality inspections will allow the design team to determine the best repair methods while reducing construction impacts.  

More information is provided in our November Project Kick off Update.

Update (08.03.2023):

In June, the city received 4 proposals for the design phase of this project.  A panel of city staff reviewed the proposals and selected Stantec Consulting Services to provide the project design.  Execution of a design contract with Stantec was authorized by City Council at the August 8 City Council meeting.  Design is anticipated to begin in late summer of 2023.

Update (5.24.2023): 

The City has posted a Request for Qualifications to select a designer for this project in mid-June.  If you are or know a consultant who would like to bid, please direct them to the city’s bidding website:
