WHEREAS an existing concrete storm drain located in an easement between Olivewood Avenue and Lemon Street, approxi- mately 500 feet south of Fourteenth Street, is in need of immediate repair; and WHEREAS a break in a section of said line causes dirt to wash into the storm drain during storm periods resulting in a blockage of the line; and WHEREAS said breakage has created a void close to an existing garage which could become damaged if the storm drain is not repaired soon; and WHEREAS in November 1984 television equipment was used to inspect said line and a large crack along most of the inner crown of the pipe was revealed, indicating that the pipe is failing structurally; and WHEREAS the inspection films also revealed several intermitent cracks in the line caused from root intrusion; and WHEREAS the Engineering Division of the Public Works Department recommends that the entire 300 foot length of the storm drain be slip lined with a thick-walled polyethlene liner since conventional pipeline construction techniques cannot be used because several residential struc°tures are located directly over or adjacent to zald ~torm ~raln; and WHEREAS the slip lining will provide new structural strength to the pipe while eliminating costly damage or relocation of the existing structures in the area; and
