AGENDA ITEM # 9.4 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL <br /> <br />Report Prepared by: Andy Schwartz <br /> <br />Date: 1/2/24 <br /> <br />Subject: Bobber Tower Maintenance/Repair <br /> <br />Report: The frost jacket around the standpipe of the bobber tower on Front <br />Street has separated in a couple places. This has been fixed in the past and will <br />require future repairs as the jacket flanges and associated hardware weaken with <br />time. Since the tower will no longer be used for water storage, I’m recommending <br />removal of the jacket and standpipe. I’ve received a quote for $15,000 to complete <br />the work. We would be responsible for disposing of materials and cleanup. <br />Currently, there is only $675.00 set aside for maintenance -related costs for the <br />bobber tower. I did not include this expense in my 2024 water budget, but there is <br />some leftover money in this year’s budget that may cover the cost. <br /> <br />Council Action Requested: Approval of standpipe removal and consider making <br />annual contributions to a fund to cover costs of future repairs and maintenance of <br />the old bobber tower. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
