Engineer Report • NE 36"' St The 2020 Town of Yarrow Point Stormwater Management Plan was published last May. The new study incorporated known stormwater pipe alignments and sizes into the latest modeling software to identify and prioritize future capital improvement projects (CIPs) throughout the Town. A stormwater connection from 92nd Ave NE to NE 36th Street was identified as CIP #1. This project diverts flows along 92nd (south of NE 36th St) as well as Points Drive NE (east of the round -a -bout) to the storm system in NE 36th Street. As part of this project, several pieces of the NE 36th Street stormwater infrastructure (ie. catch basins, broken pipes, and cross bores) will be addressed. Our current CIP identifies this project as both S-1 ($280,000 for design and construction) and T-1 ($160,000 for full grind and overlay). There is no power, phone, or cable conversion associated with this project. Gray & Osborne, the Town's 3-year On -Call Engineer, is currently working on the design. Staff is expecting 60% submittal documents (ie. plans, specifications, and an estimate) for review in 3 weeks. Town staff will review the documents and assuming minimal comments, we expect the final bid package just before the July 4th weekend. We intend to bid and construct the project this year with the grind and overlay to be done in the summer of 2023. • Sewage leak in Wetherill Nature Preserve: Fencing was put up surrounding a raw sewage leak from a private property sewage line serving four homes at the end of NE 33rd St. Town legal staff is working with the property owners, City of Bellevue and contractors for resolution.
