(“City Engineer”) have identified sections throughout the City of deteriorated sanitary sewer lines requiring rehabilitation through sewer lining and related improvements. Sewer lining extends the life of our infrastructure by 40 to 50 years at a fraction of the cost of full pipe replacement. It reduces inflow and infiltration, which helps prevent sewer backups and system overload during heavy rain events. Because the process is trenchless, it minimizes road closures, disruption to residents, and restoration costs. The Service Director has recommended that the City move forward with an annual Sewer Services Program. Implementing an annual Sewer Services Program allows the City to take a proactive approach to infrastructure maintenance, addressing issues before they become emergency failures, stabilizing long-term costs, and protecting public health and the environment Cc: Liz Westbrooks, Clerk of Council Mayor Bill Schneider A.
