Resolution 2013-27 was introduced and placed on fir"st reading by Mayor Kennedy. A Resolution declaring conditions within the sanitary sewer collection system at 6355 and 6369 Barton Road to be real and present emergencies necessitating action without public bidding as required by the North Olmsted Charter Art. VIII, Section 6 and further authorizing the Mayor to enter into a contract with KMU Trucking to install infrastructure improvements within the sanitary sewer collection system, as detailed in the specifications on file in the Department of Public Service, and declaring an emergency. Councilman Schumann made a motion to suspend the rules requiring three readings and formal committee review. The motion was seconded by Councilman Barker and passed unanimously. Dennis Lambert, 25057 Carey Lane said this Resolution was discussed in Caucus. As he stated to Safety/Service Director Thomas and to the Assistant Superintendent of Collection at the WWTP, the pipe serving 25 houses measured about 49 square inches. That's an 8-inch sewer line. They are going to somehow choke off the larger sewer so that it equalizes the pressure between the 8 inch sewer line and the larger sewer that's feeding the main sewer system down the way. This Council needs to consider adding a separate parallel line to that sewer line to do a permanent remedy for that, and Council should be considering putting some money aside for this and other areas that are going to require such things. Forty-nine square inches basically accommodates 4 houses. There '~` are 25 houses instead of 4. Gareau said that the analysis is not to choke off or restrict the *" larger line. It was to create a flow situation whereby both inflow from each direction could be accommodated and carried to the east. So, there is not going to be any restriction of flow to the people who are "upstream" on the other side of that line. [t's just a matter of permitting that material to flow by creating a "Y" situation where the two lines will come together and then proceed to the east. Councilman Schumann moved for adoption. The motion was seconded by Councilman Barker and passed unanimously. Resolution 2013-27 adopted.
