BACKGROUND <br /> Sycamore Tank is an 8 million gallon water storage tank below ground located at the <br /> end of Sycamore Creek Way. The site has two undeveloped grass hills that drain <br /> across the property. The existing site surface is primarily dirt with little vegetation. The <br /> existing drainage ditches have silted over and require maintenance. A iew concrete V- <br /> ditch is required to direct water from the south property line to the storm drain system on <br /> Sycamore Creek Way. The existing soil will be amended and hydro seeded with native <br /> grass to prevent further erosion of the tank site. <br /> DISCUSSION <br /> Bids <br /> Sealed bids for this project were opened on July 24, 2013.
