no itemized roll call in the official record
No action was taken. The Board gave staff direction to move forward with the project and to incorporate the addition of a line item onto the base bid to add chaseways to the project. The County of Lake does not have available funds to assist the water district with this add on item. Mr. Gardner will go back to his Board to ask for the funds needed to cover this portion of the work and will return with a status report. If the water district does not have the funds, the line item will be removed from the project.
Clerk’s notes: Public Works Director Scott DeLeon presented the item to the Board. Clearlake Oaks County Water District General Manager Alan Gardner was also present and spoke. The water district is concerned about access for future repairs to the water lines which will be directly underneath the Clearlake Oaks Safe Routes to School Sidewalk Project. The addition of chaseways during this project would alleviate the need to dig up the concrete for repairs. Mr. Gardner is asking the County to cover the cost of adding the chaseways to the project as the water district does not have funds at the current time.
