This item is for consideration to waive the daily admission fees on July 4, 2026, at Centennial Pool, 3333 Harrison Street (Hours 1 PM-5 PM), with a capacity of 350, and Grandview Pool, 324 Grandview Street (Hours 1 PM-5 PM), with a capacity of 200.

This item is for consideration and approval to replace the purchase of a wood chipper, approved in the 2026 Budget, with a new trailer-mounted high-pressure sewer cleaner. Due to a change in operations the wood chipper is no longer needed. The existing sewer cleaner is currently the City's only unit of this size and is 11 years old. An additional unit will allow for continuity of service during maintenance and repairs, and allow crews to meet the growing need for sewer cleaning as sewer infrastructure continues to expand. The quoted amount is $158,534.87, including city sales tax, and will be paid from the Wastewater Fund. Staff recommends approval.

Approval of Resolution No. 5620 will release the financial assurance currently held in the form of a Property Escrow Agreement, thereby facilitating the sale of individual lots to perspective homeowners. Furthermore, the action will accept the public improvements associated with the streets and infrastructure into the citywide maintenance system to be maintained by the City's Public Works Department. Staff recommends approval.
