Summary Explanation and Background:
On July 21, 2022 the Utility Services Department was notified of a spill on North Wickham Road and Business Center Boulevard, near Deer Lakes Drive. It was discovered that two sinkholes developed and caused a blockage in our 18-inch gravity main. Per our investigation, it was determined that the sinkholes were caused by large holes inside the manholes between the segment of pipe causing the blockage. Due to working around existing utilities and the complexity of the issue, L7 Construction, Inc. was issued an EPO in the amount of $14,999.00 to assist our staff with the emergency repairs which included repairing the two failed manholes, clearing the blockages and filling in the sinkholes.
The total cost of the effort described above from L7 Construction, Inc. was $227,242.92. Since an EPO in the amount of $14,999.00 was issued to initiate the work, approval is needed in the amount of $212,243.92 to pay L7 Construction, Inc’s invoice #22-033-1 in its entirety.
