The Shade Valley Pond Repairs project was initiated in order to relieve the City of significant efforts and costs of ongoing pond maintenance. Proposed improvements to the pond are intended to address nuisance vegetation, increase storage capacity, address geese issues, and enhance the overall aesthetics of the pond. Goals are to restore pond to “below normal pool” volumes via dredging of forebay and main pool to increase water quality function and remove available nutrients contributing to duckweed and algal blooms. The entirety of the pond and littoral shelf will be replanted with wetland plantings and trees to enhance aesthetics and decrease attractiveness of pond to geese. Geese preventative measures are proposed to establish plantings.
Collective Storm Drainage Improvement Projects Series AJ will involve 6 projects throughout the City of Charlotte, 1614 Lombardy Circle, 2033 Teddington Drive, 2316 Kilborne Drive, 10513 Moss Mill Lane, 435 Norwood Drive, and 5447 Kerry Glen Lane. These projects will consist of reinforced concrete pipe replacement and realignment. The project pipe will consist of a range of different sizes from 15 inch to 36 inch as well as some elliptical pipe. These projects will also consist of CIPP liner, storm drainage structure replacement, non-standard endwalls, full depth asphalt, curb and gutter, concrete driveway, foundation assessment, foundation protection, boulder toe, soil lifts, and watermain replacement.
The Morning Dale Storm Drainage Improvement Project will reduce street and structure flooding throughout the neighborhood. Located within a drainage area of approximately 560 acres, the project will replace and/or rehabilitate aging infrastructure and provide adequate drainage system capacity. This project area is bordered by Hinson Drive to the north, Stratfordshire Drive to the south, Tadlock Place to the east and Morning Dale Road to the west.
The project involves the procurement of a new primary clarifier mechanism to replace the existing mechanism in Primary Clarifier #5 at the McDowell Creek Water Resource Recovery Facility. This replacement aims to improve the performance and reliability of the primary clarifier, ensuring that it meets current operational standards.

This project includes significant improvements to the existing service water system at the Franklin Water Treatment Plant. The scope of work involves the replacement of existing pumps, piping, valves, and backflow devices within the service water system. Additionally, new flow meters will be installed on the Franklin Water Treatment Plant service water system, while existing flow meters on the filter effluent lines at the Lee S. Dukes Water Treatment Plant will also be replaced. These upgrades are expected to enhance the accuracy of flow measurements and improve the efficiency of the service water system.
This project involves the replacement of the existing ultraviolet disinfection system at the Sugar Creek Water Resource Recovery Facility. The scope of work includes upgrading the UV disinfection system while utilizing the existing UV channels, extending these channels, and replacing the current level control gates with fixed finger weirs. A new non-potable water (NPW) pump station wet well will be added, and the drain valve of the East Equalization Basin will be replaced. During this upgrade, a temporary disinfection system will be provided to maintain disinfection while the UV system is out of service. Additionally, two existing NPW pumps will be relocated, and three NPW pumps will be replaced in kind. The Filter Backwash Return Pump wet well work will include the installation of a backwash return pump, the necessary piping and valves, and the replacement of a flow meter.
River District Firehouse Project – Phase 1.
Construct a new fire house in the River District of Charlotte NC.
The Project consists of retrofitting existing stormwater detention basins including constructing forebays to increase pretreatment of solids and create sheet flow through the basin, removing and replacing of existing turf grass in the bottom of the basins with a hardier herbaceous vegetative mix that provides more treatment, and modification of outlet structures of basins that increase retention time within the basins to increase pollutant removal.
Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) Services
A CMAR will bring value in determining the most cost-effective alignment and provide potential construction phasing options, thereby minimizing schedule risks and constructability concerns.
The proposed design includes a 12’‐wide concrete shared‐use path along one side of Robinson Church Road, beginning at Plott Road (connects to Robinson Church Road Phase 1 Improvements) and continues to Harrisburg Road. Accommodations for pedestrian / bicycle crossings and minor upgrades at major intersections (Hood Road, the future Eastern Circumferential Roadway and Harrisburg Road) and minor side streets (Alanbrook Road, Ludell Lane, Irwin Road, Fairford Drive, Solares Drive, Jerimoth Drive, Culver Spring Way, Hammond Drive, Atlas Cedar, Deluca Drive, Castle Garden Lane, Williams Gate Lane and Jones Creek Circle) will also be included in the scope. The project team is early in the design phase and plans are currently at a 10% milestone level. The CMAR shall provide input on the design, including side‐of‐street analysis for the shared‐use path and pedestrian / bicycle crossings at all major and minor intersections to identify potential cost savings and schedule efficiencies.
