located at the southeast corner of Old Potash Highway and Engleman Road in the City of Grand
Island, developed by W.C. "Dub" Baker of Re-Max Realty Specialists; and
WHEREAS, the Utilities Department evaluated the prof ect's overall design to ensure
pipe sizing was adequate to meet the Utilities Department volume requirements; and
WHEREAS, evaluation of the development's design indicated a necessity of
continuing 20" water main piping west toward Engleman Road which is larger than the 12" line
needed to support the development's water requirements, but necessary to accommodate future
growth in the area; and
WHEREAS, it has been a long standing city policy that the Water Department pay
the cost to over-size water mains when the installation of a major trunk pipeline benefits the overall
water system; and

multiple area material suppliers, ranging from $36,341.37 to 39,390.82 in order to establish a cost
for the over sizing.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF
