City staff says that the project has been delayed due to technical issues encountered in the execution of the microtunneling work required to install the new 36-inch gravity sewer system. The City is working with the contractor, the design consultant, and an impartial microtunneling consultant to address and resolve the issues associated with the microtunneling component of the project.
