Council reviews $3M–$4M plan to widen 7375/925 corridor and add storm drainage; staff recommends bidding this spring

Brandon, public-works staff, presented the 7375/925 corridor plan: road widening with curb and sidewalk, replacement of existing water mains and a new storm-drain system that would run from Castle Cove phase through 7375, 925 and South Weaver Drive down to Canyon Meadows. He told council the corridor-level estimate is “about 2,000,000 for that” for the combined utilities and road segments shown in the cost spreadsheet but noted storm-drain items and total scope could raise the project into the $3–4 million range depending on options.

Staff stressed a timing trade-off: a private development to the north might provide a lower-cost northward outlet for stormwater, which could materially reduce the storm-drain portion if the project and development timelines align; if not, staff recommended bidding the full scope this year to start construction in late spring/early summer. Council directed staff to continue working the schedule and consider a bid package while pursuing developer coordination and impact-fee crediting where appropriate.
