DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency's Water Resources Division staff monitors the condition of
water main pipelines by assessing critical factors such as the history of breaks, pipe
size, alignment, location, and system redundancy to determine replacement priorities.
The water main on Glenwood Place has been identified for replacement (Exhibit 1). The
improvements include new polyvinyl chloride (PVC) water main, fire hydrants, water
services, appurtenances, asphalt concrete pavement, and traffic striping. Once
completed, water service reliability and general service quality will improve significantly.
In addition, the potential for disruption due to water main breaks will be substantially
reduced.
