Watermain - Balsam & Spruce
At the last Public Works meeting, the homeowner at the
corner of Balsam and Spruce asked if the City could move the
watermain off his property at the time the street is improved.
Attached is a copy of a report from the Public Works Director
suggesting the main be moved.
Hopefully the cost of moving the main will be available by
the September Public Works meeting.

Relocation of water main on Balsam and Spruce Rd.
With the proposed storm sewer and road improvement project pending in the
Balsam and Spruce Road area, serious consideration should be given to the
relocation of the present water main.
If you refer to the attached drawing you Can see the problems that could
arise. The present six inch main is routed off the street and through the
properties at ~52h and 5510 Spruc'e Road. This is one of the oldest mains
in Mound, which may present many problems in the future with main breaks.
In 1976 we had one on Balsam Road and one on Spruce Road. As my drawing
illustrates, there w~s a break in front of ~52h Spruce a few years ago.
This break was ddrin9 the summer and caused no damage to the house. Had
there been frost in the ground with the main only three feet from the
foundation the damage could have been very costly. The homeowners are very
concerned and have previously asked that something be done about relocation
of this main.
My proposal is to relocate a six inch ductile main starting at a point 28'
N.W. of the curb box for ~h)4 Spruce Road. It would run from this point
117' to the intersection of Spruce Road then north on Spruce Road for approx-
imately 260' to the point of intersection ~ith th~ cast iron six inch main
where' it leaves the. properties and returns to the street right of way.
I would also recommend the replacement of the fire hydrant at ~510 Spruce
Road. The present hydrant is th~ old style with a four inch opening and
only 2 - 2½" hose connections. The new hydrant will be a Waterous Pace~
with a five inch opening, two - 2½" and a steamer connection. This w~ll
allow the Mack Fire Units to hook up and afford more water for fire
protection to the ares. The nearest fire h3drants to this are both two
blocks sWSyo Alsl~six inch §ate vslv~ will be ,ced in front of the
hydrant for ease~replac{ng any parts without of water availab~lty
to the local consumers.
I have contacted Widmer Bros. for a prlce on the work and it should be
delivered soon. The proceedure will be ms follows: they will di~ 8nd install
th%? new water main up to a point of ~ntersection at both ends. The City
will haul in the backfill ~nere necessary. We will compact the d~tch with
a mmchine furnished by Widmers. H~ will di§ in the water lines from the new
main up to the existin§ l~nes to the three homes. We will tap the main and
hook up to the existin9 llnes.
They will then cut open the old main and tie in the new at each end.. After
cuttin§ out the old main we will plu9 the open ends so that the 9round can
not settle into them at a later period of time.
Re~pectfully, submitted,
