The failure is encroaching upon an existing home. The failure <br />has continued to expand in recent months and will likely threaten the <br />existing home if not repaired. I developed a repair plan based on <br />recommendations from a soils consultant. <br /> <br />As of the time of this writing we are soliciting a contractor quote for the <br />work. I expect to have the quote prior to the meeting. I expect it will be in <br />the $50,000 to $70,000 range to complete the repairs. The recommended <br />repairs consist of a combination of sheet piling, re-shaping of the bank and <br />boulders. <br /> <br />I will be able to provide additional information and answer questions prior <br />to or during the meeting. <br /> <br />SUGGESTED MOTION: Approve contract and authorize use of <br />emergency funds to repair the embankment failure in the Orchard Glen <br />Subdivision adjacent to Cass County flood buyout lots. <br /> <br />J:\Admin-Eng\Commission Corrsp\2004 Correspondence\Adgenda Memo - Orchard Glen RepaiLdoc <br />
