Project Name Project Description
Walker Branch Interceptor As the Transit Orientated Development (TOD) areas begin to develop it is becoming apparent that the city’s existing
Project - Continuing Project sanitary sewer system needs to be upgraded. The Walker Branch Interceptor Project will consist of sanitary sewer
improvements. Section one of the project will consist of increasing the sizes of the lines from 6-inch, 8-inch, and 10-
inch to 8-inch, 12-inch and a 15-inch respectively from Smithfield Road along Main Street to the Walker Creek and Mid-
Cities Boulevard confluence. The total length of sewer line for this section is approximately 5,500 feet. Section two
consists of replacing an 18 inch and 21 inch line with a 27 inch sewer line. The approximate length of this section of the
project is 4,100 feet.

Water Impact Fee Project - The Water Impact Fee project consists of the professional services needed to support the data collection, tracking and
Continuing Project anlaysis of the City's impact fee program.

Western Center Water Facility In October 2005, the City had a Water and Wastewater Plan prepared that would cover future system needs to "build
Expansion - Continuing Project out" (estimated at approximately 2017). One of the future needs identified was an additional 5 million gallon ground
storage tank to be located at the Western Center Storage and Booster Pump Station site. The current site is not large
enough to accommodate a new 5 million gallon ground storage tank. This project will include purchasing an additional
2/3 of an acre adjacent to the current site for the future expansion.
