APPROVAL OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATION AND AUTHORIZATION TO
ADVERTISE FOR BIDS FOR THE INSTALLATION OF A WICK IRRIGATION
SYSTEM ON JAMBOREE ROAD - PHASE II (CIP NO. 1538)
SUMMARY
The installation of the Wick Irrigation System on Jamboree Road - Phase II is a joint
project with the Irvine Ranch Water District (IRWD) to modify a portion of the existing
irrigation system to conserve water and reduce water run-off from the medians.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 05-30 approving the plans
and specifications for the installation of the Wick Irrigation System on Jamboree Road -
Phase II, and authorizing the City Clerk to advertise for bids.
FISCAL IMPACT
The FY 2004-2005 Capital Improvement Project budget for Jamboree Road Irrigation
System Replacement (CIP No. 1538) provides adequate funds for this project. The
engineer's estimate for this portion of work is $100,000. IRWD will reimburse the City 50%
or $50,000 as their share of this joint project.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Tustin and the Irvine Ranch Water District (lRWD) executed an agreement on
January 31, 2002 for the design and construction of Phase I of the Wick Irrigation System
on Jamboree Road as a demonstration project. This demonstration project was evaluated
for efficiency and water usage and found to be a success. Phase I has reduced water run-
off and has assisted with the City's compliance with new NPDES requirements.
On July 19, 2004, the City Council approved the first amendment to the original agreement
which provided for 50/50 share of cost for the design and construction of Phase II of the
Wick Irrigation System on Jamboree Road. Phase II will modify an additional portion of the
existing irrigation system on Jamboree Road between Pioneer Road and north City limits.
