Project Description Ongoing development results in greater demand for water services and thus new water mains are required for distributing water to the new areas. The E. Dunne Hill Reservoir Water Main Project was designed in FY 15/16 to install approximately 4,000 feet of 16" transmission main to supply water to the new 850,000 gallon reservoir near Flaming Oaks Lane from the existing E. Dunne Booster Station. Construction of the transmission piping project is scheduled for FY 16/17. The combination of the new transmission main, the new reservoir and modifications to the existing E. Dunne Booster station will significantly improve water storage capacity and fire protection for the surround area. A new CIP is being prepared as part of the new Water Master Plan to be completed in early FY 16/17. Future water main projects will be defined including scope and timing of the projects in the new CIP. The spending plan below will be updated once the new project schedule is defined. Project Justification The new water mains will ensure that there is an adequate distribution system enabling the City to meet new water demands.
