Regular PEDC Meeting <br />Dec. 18, 2002 <br />Page 6 <br /> <br />Sycamore Street and that four inch line is an old cast iron line that is very old and <br />probably has low pressure and needs to be replaced. Mr. Napier said that the <br />City went to Neagle Street where there was a new eight inch line and installed <br />about a block and half of eight inch water line, then came up north. Mr. Napier <br />said that he met with the plant manager of Hydro-Conduit and he agreed that the <br />city would install the line through our right-of-way, and he would take it from <br />there and run it due east to their box culvert plant to a fire hydrant. Mr. Napier <br />presented a drawing illustrating the project. Mr. Napier said when they tied <br />everything in, they turned the water line on and had the same 17 gallons a <br />minute. Mr. Napier said they found that the inch and half line they had going <br />from the meter into the building was corroded causing most of the problem. <br /> <br />City Manager Malone pointed out that one of the advantages of this project is <br />that we now have a new eight inch line that serves the fire hydrant located next <br />to the building. He said the city spent about $16,000.00 running the eight inch <br />line and there is great water pressure now for fire protection for the box culvert <br />facility. City Manager Malone said it has been looped in to the six inch line that <br />goes to the original tie-in on the four inch line. He advised that in the future the <br />city will go back and replace the four inch line. <br /> <br />After discussion, a motion was made by Director Fendley, seconded by Director <br />Severson, for approval of the resolution. The motion carried unanimously. <br /> <br />There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned. <br /> <br />ATTEST: <br /> <br />JAY GUEST, PRESIDENT <br /> <br />MATTIE CUNNINGHAM, CITY CLERK <br /> <br /> <br />
