This existing pipe drains an area adjacent to Highwood Road to Lake Minnetonka. This failing pipe has been causing flooding problems in several yards and threatening a home basement. The proposed project is to directional bore a new pipe from the ponding area adjacent to Highwood Road along a 20 foot wide platted alley to Lake Minnetonka. A project plan is included for your review. The pipe will be directionally bored, so no excavation will be required for pipe installation under the road and down the hill. Excavation will be required near the lakeshore to install a manhole and a short section of pipe. Riprap will be installed at the lakeshore. In order to protect the hill side, the contractor will be required to barge in the necessary materials and equipment across the lake to complete the work near the lakeshore. The estimated cost for this project is $40,000, and the project will be funded from the storm water utility fund. The deadline for the receipt of quotations is 10:00 a m. on Monday, May 13*.
