Foxrun/Burtonwood Storm Drainage Improvement Project
This project is bordered by Rama Road to the north, McAlpine Creek to the south, Monroe Road to the east and Burlwood Road to the west. The drainage system consists of open channel and closed pipe systems underneath City maintained roads. This was previously identified as a major capital project from the watershed ranking prioritization process with a score of 54 of 100. The ranking protocol identifies 30 structures that experience flooding in the 100-year storm event and 16 roads that experience transverse overtopping events that do not meet current standards. A holistic project is needed to cost beneficially address the drainage system issues.

Electrical Services
The City of Charlotte is soliciting proposals from qualified companies to provide as-needed electrical services for more than 200 municipal facilities, structures, and other assets. The city’s facilities require continuous electrical services, which range from standard maintenance to minor renovation projects and repairs. Currently, the city’s facilities include electrical service amperages from 100 to 4,000, and 120/208V and 277/480V.
The majority of electrical service requests will require initial field investigation and material/labor options, which include but are not limited to the following:
• Reviewing existing materials, electrical drawings, reports, and existing infrastructure in the facility;
• Reviewing/discussing the requested service(s) scope;
• Developing a quote for labor and/or product costs and review with city staff;
• Providing construction estimates, detailed specifications, and construction implementation schedules,
and;
• Producing “as-built” changes to existing electrical drawings.
Interested companies must display extensive expertise with light commercial and heavy commercial installations. Some electrical services for city facilities may require expertise with industrial installations. Additionally, some projects will require installation, maintenance, and related unspecified services of electric vehicle support equipment. The city reserves the right to select more than one company for award and assign projects based on the capability of the company.
