East Lane Street Drainage Improvements

Repairing Stormwater System

This project will repair and realign the damaged private stormwater drain system that has resulted in a sink hole at 513-515 E. Lane St. Once the house over the sinkhole is demolished at the expense of the property owner and the property owner has provided suitable access permissions to the city, we will assist in providing temporary stabilization measures to allow the conveyance of stormwater across the property in order to prevent further erosion and sediment loss while the permanent solution is being designed and constructed.

Design

The consultant will first survey the area and perform initial hydrologic and hydraulic analysis to prepare for the design of the project. The City has performed closed circuit television video (CCTV) inspection of the damaged pipe and adjacent stormwater system to provide to the consultant for initial analysis.

Project Goals

Install a new 36” pipe in a new alignment between 509 E. Lane St and N Elm Street, properly abandon the existing damaged pipe, and repair and stabilize the sink hole at 513-515 E. Lane St to prevent further property damage.
