UTILITY OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT
MEMORANDUM
To: Steve Fitzgibbor~s, City Manager
From: Daniel Shepherd, Director of Utility Operations./~'/~
Date: November 1,2002
Subject: El Vista Wastewater Plant
File: ELVSTASTP
In the late 1980s, the El Vista wastewater plant on 53rd street was abandoned with the
completion of a lift station and force main which transferred the flow to the Port Acres
plant service area. The old plant units have deteriorated, and the area has become
unsightly.
A citizen who wishes to lease the site for grazing purposes has approached us. Such
an agreement would assure that the fence would be maintained and that the grass
mowed. However, the old treatment units should be demolished in order to enhance
the appearance of the site. The cost to demolish these units is estimated at $30,000.
This can be included in the next budget request.
