STORM DRAIN TRENCH FAILURE
Mr. Ed Clark stated Engineering Staff has been negotiating this
failure, located at DeBerry and Stonewood, with San Bernardino

bility for the repair, since it relates to a storm drain.
Councilman Nix arrived at 4:12 p.m.
Engineering Staff, Brian Esgate, stated the cost to repair the
failure will be approximately $2,000.00. Negotiations will
continue with Flood Control regarding their acceptance; however

to repair the failure immediately, with work not to proceed
until Flood Control has examined the area.

and carried unanimously to authorize an informal contract to be
administered by the City Engineer's Office to repair the severely

much they will pay.
