Item No. 6.G.
For Meeting of: July 16, 2019

ITEM TITLE:Resolution authorizing an Agreement for Sewer and Infrastructure Development and Easement with Catalyss, LLC
SUBMITTED BY:

Scott Schafer, Director of Public Works

Mike Price, Wastewater/Stormwater Division Manager, 249-6815

SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The City of Yakima (City) currently has a lift station for wastewater West of Catalyss property that it would like to decommission.  To replace the decommissioned lift station with gravity sewer, it is most efficient to run a gravity sewer line downslope through the Catalyss property.  There also is currently a City stormwater facility that needs to be updated on the property.  Catalyss would like the easement for the stormwater facility to be moved and the City would like to use that newly-located easement for the new wastewater gravity line and stormwater facilities.  Catalyss has agreed to do the engineering and specification work and the City Public Works Department will construct the wastewater and stormwater facilities in the agreed-upon new easement location.  This project has been contemplated since at least 2012 and is budgeted in the Public Works budget.
