City Project No. SW2507 Wide Hollow Creek Berm Reinforcement (Project) restores the 1,800 linear foot earthen berm located along the northern boundary of West Valley Community Park between South 80th Avenue to the west and South 75th Avenue to the east (see attached Project Location Map). The berm mitigates flooding from Wide Hollow Creek to properties located to the north of the berm. High flows in Wide Hollow Creek from late winter and early spring snowmelts have eroded the berm and reduced flood protection. The project restores the original berm width and elevation, provides rock armoring to protect from further erosion, and provides access and a drivable surface to facilitate emergency and regular maintenance.
The City Engineering Division provided the Project design and bid documents. The City utilized the procedure established by the State of Washington for competitively bidding projects. Five contractors submitted bids, with Selland Construction, Inc. submitting the lowest bid of $233,685.
The attached resolution and contract provide the specific elements of the agreed upon berm reinforcement. The project is funded through the Stormwater Capital Fund 442. |
