MEMORANDUM “SEP29

B. Kirk, ~ September 15, 1982
City Administrator

FROM: F.E. Peters., P. Eng.,
City Engineer

SUBJECT: Repair of Elinor Crescent and Wellington Street -
Public Works Committee, September 14, 1982

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City proceed with the repair of the sections
of road damaged by broken watermains on Elinor Crescent and
Wellington Street at a total cost of approximately $23,000 and

nds be taken out of the Water Utility Capital
Reserve Fund.

BACKGROUND AND COMMENTS:

We have had watermain breaks this year which have
damaged two sections of Wellington Street and. a section of
Elinor. Crescent. The damage is severe in places and the
pavement badly warped and rolled... The cost of the repair will
be quite high since the sections of the road will have to be
completely reconstructed. ;

Normally any patching of road associated with the
repair of broken watermains would come out of the Water ,
Maintenance Budget. In this case, because of the high edst of
repair, the Water Maintenance Budget will not be sufficient to
carry the cost of the work. Since the work must be done, the
Committee recommends that the funds be taken from reserve fundg
in the Water Utility Capital Account.
