Location: Arnico Street between E. Via Escuela and Jason Court.
Project Description: Install sewer main and sewer laterals in Arnico Street
Project Justification: The residential neighborhood of 87 homes located south of Via Escuela between Whitewater Club Drive and Gene Autry Trail was previously identified in a moderate-to-low income census tract area making public improvements in that neighborhood eligible for funding through the City's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. Over several years, the City Council funded installation of sewer improvements in phases in this neighborhood with CDBG funds. However, after the 2010 Census, this residential area was no longer identified in an eligible income area allowing for use of CDBG funds, leaving the last phase of homes on Arnico Street without connections to the City’s sewers and relying on septic tanks.
Project Status: Construction - Notice of Completion Staff Report
Cost: $785,000
