Agenda items were as follows: a. Water line replacement and r of Westchester Drive and Coe Avenue. The committee was concerned about gthe~ng the water lines on these streets. However, consultant Jeffrey Filarski of Western Reserve Engineering told the coiiimittee that relining the water lines would not add but would increase flow pressure. Because flow pressure is not a problem in these areas, the committee decided not to reline the water lines. Accordmg to Mr. Filarski, water line breaks are caused by corrosion, stress due to construction and poor drainage of the soiq around the water 1me. Once the cctiistniction of the new streets is complete, there should not be a problem with the water lines. b. The street program will be confined to projects previously scheduled for 1995. c.
