(418) 2632231 LOB 1JO 987'6039 REPORT TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF JULY 3, 1984. REPORT'NO.: WD -64 -84 SUBJECT: ROAD REPAIRS ASSOCIATED WITH WATERMAIN BREAKS ON WAVERLEY ROAD RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully, recommended: 1. That this report be received for information and a 'copy be forwarded to Durham Region Works Department. REPORT: The attached letter from the Region of Durham Works Department details a situation which exists on Waverley Road. Basically, the watermain on the street has been plagued with breaks and repairs are made on a regular basis. These repairs have required open - cutting of the road and removal of sections of curb. The number and frequency of such repairs has reached the stage where peremanent repairs are impractical especially in view of the fact that the watermatn is scheduled for replacement in 1986. ...2 70 Page 2 REPORT N0. WD-64 -84 As an interim measure the Region would like to continue to patch the excavations on the driving surface but temporarily replace damaged curb sections with asphalt curb. -This is not an unreasonable approach provided that the reconstruction target of 1986 is maintained. In fact, the Region should be encouraged to advance the watermain replacement if at all possible, to minimize disruption to residents, and inconvenience to the Town. A copy of this report should be forwarded to the Region to indicate the Town's concurrence with the above. RGD: jco June 18, 1984. Respectfully submitted, , , e14- R.G. Dupuis, P.

ATTACHMENT No: 3 TO REPORT No. 13 ° $kk Re: Waverly Road - Road Repairs WAT -N -1 -1 As you are aware, we have been experiencing considerable difficulty with the watermain on Waverly Road. It has been necessary to make numerous repairs to,it over the past two or three years and because of its location, under or immediately behind the curb, this work has resulted in an need to replace a considerable portion of the total curb on the street. At the present time, there is approxiamtely 100 m of curb to be replaced. Actual replacement of the main itself is scheduled to be carried out in 1986. In the meantime, there will undoubtedly be other breaks resulting in more damage to the curb. The purpose of this letter is to request your agreement to replacement of damaged curb with asphalt curb by our staff from now until such time as the existing main is replaced in 1986. If for any reason the instal-lation of the main is substantially delayed then this department will undertake to replace the curb in concrete if you so desire. May I please have your comments on this proposal at your earliest convenience. Yours truly, K.M. Middleton, P., Eng. Maintenance Manager /rd cc: W. A. Evans, P. Eng. �7 G. B. Harness, P. Eng. ! W. G.
