<br />CIT`1 OE LA PORTE <br />INTER OFFICE MEMORANDQM <br />January 27, 1992 <br />TO: Robert <br />ERONI: ~ e <br />• <br />T. Herrera, City Manager <br />Gillett, Director of Public Works <br />SLBJE Proposed Street Improvements <br />East H Street Between S. Virginia and S. Utah <br />The 1991-92 Budget allocated 517,000 for replacement of the <br />concrete pavement on East H Street. The replacement is necessary <br />due to damages from sewer repair, construction of the East La Porte <br />Relief Sewer and deteriorating storm sewers.The budgeted amount <br />included street replacement and storm sewer rehabilitation. <br />A routine T.V. inspection of the existing sanitary sewer revealed <br />advanced decay of the pipe material. Additionally, the line is <br />located under the paved street section and is undersized. In fact, <br />the existing 8" line carries sewer from two intersecting 8" lines. <br />It is recommended that the existing 8" sanitary sewer located under <br />this street be enlarged and relocated adjacent to the pavement. <br />H. Carlos Smith Engineers and Surveyors, Inc. was asked to examine <br />the proposed proje~~t and develop a prcposal to desigr. the necessary <br />improvements. A preliminary estimate from tre Engineer is <br />extremely close to the budgeted amcunt. The Engineer has propcsed <br />a design and construction administration budget of S'_4,000. <br />Additional funds are available from the Street Division's operating <br />budget. A total of $90,000 was budgeted for contract overlay. <br />Through an interlocal agreement with Harris County, 570,000 was <br />approved by Council for the overlay program. A total of $20,000 <br />remains, which could be used to fund the engineering of the East <br />H Street Project. The proposed budget is attached for your review. <br />A formal proposal from the Engineer, with alI phases of the work <br />identified with cost, will be available soon. I will forward it <br />for further. review as it becomes available. If you have any <br />questions, please advise. <br />Attachments <br />xc: John Joerns, Assistant City Manager <br />Orville Burgess, Street Superintendent <br />
