Agenda Item Brief:

Consideration and possible approval of a contract to Reno Concrete, Inc. for the Vista Drainage Improvement Project in the amount of $56,596.  The project is the improvement to existing drainage facilities to mitigate storm runoff flows that bypass public storm drain facilities and enter private property during major storm events.  Staff recommends approval.



Background:

The project is the improvement to existing drainage facilities to mitigate storm runoff flows that bypass public storm drain facilities and enter private property during major storm events. There are two (2) existing shared driveways that serve three (3) single family residential homes – APNs 030-393-41, 42, and 43 within the City of Sparks, NV. The proposed drainage improvements include additional Type 4-R catch basins in line with existing catch basins, valley gutters across both of the driveways to continue any bypassed flows within curb and gutter in Vista Blvd, new pedestrian ramps, and replaced striping improvements as necessary.
