Please see <br /> attached payment breakdown for details. <br /> Explanation: City Project 12-9 consisted of expansion of the pond in Freedom Park into areas south and west of <br /> the existing ball field. This will increase flood storage available for high intensity rainfall events and reduce the <br /> probability of flooding at downstream locations. In addition, the first phase included construction of additional <br /> catch basins along Pike Lake Drive at Fredeen Court and 12th Street. These catch basins will provide additional <br /> capacity to allow surface water to enter storm sewer under these intersections, which can reduce the potential for <br /> flooding at these intersections. To allow for the additional capacity collected by the new catch basins,the 30-inch <br /> corrugated metal storm sewer pipe discharging to Pike Lake (from Pike Lake Drive and 12th Street)was removed <br /> and replaced with a larger 54-inch concrete pipe. <br /> Costs and Funding: This project will be funded from the Stormwater Improvement Fund (Fund 421) and the <br /> New Brighton Exchange(NBE)TIF Districts. <br /> The provisions of the contract with Midwest Asphalt Corporation stipulate that the City makes a partial payment <br /> to the contractor at least once each month at regular intervals on the basis of the work performed during that <br /> preceding month. This partial payment shall not exceed 95 percent of the value of the certified estimate. <br /> Grant W ffels, <br /> Director of Public orks <br /> Attachments <br />
