Request by the Office of the County Engineer for approval of an American Rescue Plan Act grant funded study report prepared by Cobb, Fendley & Associates, Inc. for Westfield Estates sanitary sewer project for the Office of the County Engineer, UPIN 23208MF2XZ01, Precinct 2.

Background and Discussion:
The project consists of approximately 33,000 linear feet of sanitary sewer lines, 3,600 linear feet of sanitary force mains, a proposed lift station, and a possible 750 wastewater service connections.
Expected Impact:
The proposed wastewater improvements would significantly improve environmental health and safety within the Westfield Estates subdivision, while increasing overall quality of life. Access to wastewater services has a potential to increase developments within the area.
Alternative Options:
If the report is not approved, the project could be delayed and would be at risk of not meeting the grant funding deadline of 12/31/2024 for award of the project. Grant funding from sources is extremely limited so the project would not be able to proceed. Additionally, if not approved, not constructing the public sanitary sewer system in the Westfield Estates Subdivision area would lead to continued bacterial contamination in the community.
