Voting Yea: all via voice (2) Voting Nay: None Absent: Majkrzak HEARING OF CITIZEN COMMENTS None NEW BUSINESS 2. Discussion and Possible Action regarding wastewater maintenance quotes for televising (CCTV), Cured in Place Pipe (CIPP) – Spot Repairs, and CIPP – Manhole to Manhole. Marquardt noted that, as part of the ongoing efforts in 2026, the Wastewater Utility will contract for several services to maintain the sanitary sewer collection system. These services include televising (CCTV), installation of cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) spot repairs, and CIPP manhole-to-manhole repairs. As in previous years, quotes have been obtained from qualified contractors who have consistently delivered quality services at the lowest unit cost. It should be noted that the cost per lineal foot for televising has increased significantly. Public Works Committee Meeting Agenda April 14, 2026 Page 2 Televising will consist of approximately 28,500’ of sanitary sewer and about 7,000’ of interceptors. The interceptor cost is higher due to increased pipe diameter as well as accessibility issues. *Please note Aqualis had quoted a larger televising area which is why their quote shows over 60,000’ of pipe. Due to their higher cost/foot they were asked to revise their original quote. Spot Repairs will consist of three spot repairs and grouting and sealing efforts. 1,621 feet of 8” liner will be installed on five sewer sections. These maintenance activities are funded annually through the Wastewater Utility Sanitary Sewer Repair/Replacement Fund (SRRF). $125,000 was budgeted into this account for 2026 maintenance items. Staff recommended a motion to award the CCTV project and CIPP spot repair project to Great Lakes TV Seal in the amount of $45,550.00 and award the MH to MH CIPP liner project to Visu Sewer in the amount of $69,703.00 and forward to Council for final approval. Motion made by Board Member M. Smith to approve the Wastewater maintenance items for televising (CCTV), Cured in Place Pipe (CIPP) – Sport Repairs, and CIP – Manhole to Manhole, Seconded by Board Member Hicks. Voting Yea: Board Member M. Smith, Board Member Hicks Voting Nay: None Absent: Majkrzak 3. Discussion and Possible Action regarding discontinuation of alley bounded by E. Main Street, Jefferson Street, E. North Street and Whitewater Creek. Marquardt stated the City has acquired most of the property between E. Main Street, Jefferson Street, E. North Street and Whitewater Creek. Within this area, the City owns a dedicated but unpaved alley. The Community Development Authority is discussing issuing a Request for Proposals for development of this site. To facilitate development, the alley should be vacated/discontinued. There is no financial impact with discontinuation of the platted alley. Staff recommended a motion for the Public Works Committee to direct staff to prepare an Initial Resolution to send to Council for the discontinuation of the alley bounded by E. Main Street, Jefferson Street, E. North Street, and Whitewater Creek. Public Works Committee Meeting Agenda April 14, 2026 Page 3 Motion made by Board Member M.
