(KLZA)-- The Falls City Council unanimously approved an agreement for engineering services for sanitary sewer rehabilitation improvements when they met Monday night.
On the recommendation of the Board of Public Works, a contract with Kirkham Michael was approved in an amount of $30,600. Utility Superintendent Alan Romine says the City plans to redo some lines and manholes on Wilson Street and on the west side of Falls City. The work is estimated to cost $250,000.
City Administrator Gary Jorn says the City Wastewater Plant crew helped determine what the priorities are by monitoring flow levels and utilizing a city-owned system to video sewer lines. The information is then presented to an engineering company to determine the best way to make improvements.
Jorn says it is important for the City to upgrade systems before any major breakdowns occur.
Kirkham Michael is currently working with the City on the new water well and water plant upgrades at Rulo.
