Title
Parkview Estates Stage 2 Storm Water Improvements - Bid Award
History
In 2015, Parkview Stage 1 Storm Water Improvements were completed, including storm sewer pipe additions and changes to the outlet structure for the pond in Parkview Subdivision. In 2014 the Village Board approved the Stage 2, Phase I & II engineering for storm water improvements to further minimize the risk of flooding in the subdivision. The Stage 2 improvements are also intended to improve storm water issues currently experienced in the Caro Vista Subdivision.
Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd. (CBBEL) completed the hydrologic and hydraulic analysis with a recommendation for additional storage and conveyance to a regional storage pond to be constructed in the Evergreen View Park property. In June, 2015 the Board approved proceeding with utilizing the design/bid/build method for a 28 acre-foot dry detention pond in the Evergreen View Park. CBBEL prepared the engineering drawings and bid specifications for the project, Parkview Stage 2 Storm Water Improvement.
