Acceptance of the Drainage Advisory Committee’s recommendation to approve expenditure of 2018 General Obligation (GO) Bond funds for construction of erosion mitigation and repair of the leaking pond spillway at Shenandoah Valley at Battle Creek
End
Background:
The case was brought before the Drainage Advisory Committee on April 28, 2025 for construction funds. The Committee voted 7-0 to recommend approval of expenditure of funds.
The proposed project in Reserve A of the Shenandoah Valley at Battle Creek subdivision is to mitigate erosion and construct repairs to the leaking detention pond spillway.
The Property Owners Association (POA) is requesting a partnership with the City to repair the leaking pond. The DAC previously approved funds for an engineering study that was completed in 2023. The POA has contracted with a private firm to complete the construction plans that were completed in September 2024.
Site investigations confirmed that the pond is leaking and eroding around the spillway and that a 10-inch sanitary sewer is directly under the spillway.
At the October 28, 2024 Committee Meeting, staff requested and the Committee recommended $45,000.00 of the 2018 GO Bond, Proposition 6 for construction costs. The project was bid and the bid opening was April 15, 2025. The low bidder came in at $69,250.00. Staff is requesting an additional $32,000.00 to cover the additional construction cost.
This area flows to Ford Creek (Unnamed).
Cost: $32,000.00
Funding Source: 2018 General Obligation Bond
