3. Holiday Lakes Gravity Line Feasibility Study This study is intended to identify opportunities to reroute flows to consolidated gravity mains in lieu of the current force main network. Where feasible, areas would be identified to eliminate small lift stations, and consolidate into larger regional type stations. Additionally, this study would identify the potential to move gravity lines into street right of way in lieu of easements crossing property lines. 4. Lift Station Condition Assessment As part of the City's ongoing maintenance program, lift stations are periodically repaired and upgraded to ensure that they function properly. To evaluate the useful life of the lift stations, a condition assessment analysis will be performed on the City's older lift stations. This assessment will identify parts in need of repair or replacement The study will involve identifying sources of sewer system infiltration and inflow and cross connections between storm drainage and sewer system pipelines. These cross connections contribute stormwater to the sewer system during rainfall events and can lead to sanitary sewer overflows. 6. Sewer RateStudy Following the update of the Master Plan, the City will develop a sustainable wastewater utility financial plan and make recommendations on rate changes necessary tomeet ongoing operational and maintenance needs of the City's sewer infrastructure. Project Justification To continue to effectively plan, develop, and finance the City's sewer system infrastructure, regular updates to the planning documents are necessary. This sequential planning allows for consistency with potential changes to development, sewer system operations, and capital improvement project funding and prioritization. The individual special studies included in the CIP will provide guidance on future operations and capital improvement projects. and score the lift stations to prioritize the use of capital funds. 5. Inflow& Infiltration/ Cross Connection Elimination Study
