MUNICH November 19,2003 To: Mark Marquez, City Manager From: John E. Bierschwale, Asst. City Mana Re: West Deitz Creek at Maske Road Drainag Based upon our previous discussions regarding the West Dietz Creek drainage flooding problems into the Windy Meadows Subdivision and Oak St, I have spoken to Larry Akins knowing he needs additional fill material for the Paul Silber tract to raise the ground elevation for proper drainage. He has agreed to accept all the dirt from the West Dietz Creek Drainage channel at Maske Rd. low water crossing for his development. This would be a cost savings to the City of Schertz in the amount of approximately $700,000. It is of the utmost importance we consider this project at the highest priority to complete the drainage/flooding problems at Windy Meadows Sub. and residents along lower Oak St. My proposal is to reconstruct the existing low water crossing installing 5 - 7 sixty-inch drainage pipes, adjust CCMA sewer and reuse lines and purchase 9.945 acres from the Estate of Betty Boggess. Summary of Cost 9.945 acres 5 - 60" drainage pipes Utility relocates Gas pipeline adjustment Concrete Rip-Rap Sub-total Engineering and Design Total Project Est. $81,000 $30,000 $160,000 $50,000 $40.000 $361,000 $54.150 $415,150 I am recommending funding of this project as quickly as possible to meet the time line of Larry Akins' project. He wishes to begin construction on his project once the platting process and purchase from the city is complete. Without Mr. Akins assistance with this project it would cost at least $1,180,000 to complete such a task. Please advise the direction you wish to seek.
