The request of staff for City Council is to review and consider for approval Task Order No. 42 from Stroud Engineering Consultants for engineering services in the amount not to exceed $35,800 for the 2020 Jasmin Park Seawall Improvements Project design, bid, and construction.

As City Council may recall, staff presented a Seawall Condition Assessment to City Council in June of 2016.  The Assessment reviewed the existing conditions of all seawalls owned and maintained by the City.  Included in the assessment were project rankings, cost repairs, current conditions, seawall remediation, and project phasing.  Sims Park and Cotee River Park seawalls were ranked number one and two in need of repair.  The Sims Park boat ramp, Grand Blvd. Park, and Jasmin Park where ranked three, four, and five.  For the first four rankings the damage repairs included wall joint separation, wall cracking horizontal and vertical, wall cap damage, sidewalk settlement, drainage pipe deterioration, soil voids, wall leaning, and damaged or no tie-back systems.  In the Jasmin Park seawall system it was determined that the seawall’s existing condition was beyond repair and in need of replacement.
