RESOLUTION #001-2016
RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE RETAINING OF DF TOMASINI FOR EMERGENCY REPAIR
OF CULVERT REPLACEMENT ON WOODS ROAD NEAR SANDY BEACH DRIVE
WHEREAS, on or about November 2, 2016, the City became aware of a possible culvert failure on
Woods Road near Sandy Beach Drive; and
WHEREAS, On November 2, 2016, a Structural Engineer and Bridge Inspector, working on behalf of
the City, evaluated the culvert and determined that it was unsafe for public use and recommended
that the road be closed immediately; and
WHEREAS, Woods Road was closed on November 2, 2016 and for public safety concerns shall
remain closed until the culvert can be repaired; and
WHEREAS, The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources inspected the culvert and provided
verbal approval to the City to begin work on the repair of the culvert immediately; and
WHEREAS, Woods Road is a crucial route for emergency first responders as well as a highly
travelled route for the general public; that the road in its current condition is unsafe for travel; that
time is of the essence for repair of the Woods Road culvert.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED That the Public Works Committee of the City of Muskego
has determined that the current condition of the culvert on Woods Road near Sandy Beach Drive is
in an emergency state of repair pursuant to Wis. Stats. 62.15(1b) such that the contract for repair

Staff Report to Public Works Committee
To: Public Works Committee
From: Michael N. Paulos, P.E., Director of Public Works/City Engineer
Subject: Woods Road Emergency Culvert Replacement
Date: November 8, 2016
Last Wednesday, I received an email from Dan Flamini about a possible culvert
failure on Woods Road near Sandy Beach Drive. Kevin Wood, a structural
engineer and bridge inspector from GRAEF, evaluated the culvert and determined
that it was unsafe for the traveling public. At that time we recommended to the City
that the road be closed immediately due to safety concerns. The road was closed
and remains closed. Due to Woods Road being an important route for emergency
responders, we met with the WDNR to discuss permitting requirements to expedite
the approval process. We received verbal approval from Craig Webster to begin
the work immediately on Friday.
We are currently preparing plans for the culvert replacement on Woods Road near
Sandy Beach Drive. I am in discussions with DF Tomasini as far as culvert
availability, construction crew availability, and methods of construction to expedite
the construction process and get Woods Road open as soon as possible. I am
recommending that the City directly hire DF Tomasini to perform this emergency
repair work and to forgo the public bidding process due to time being of the essence.
DF Tomasini is already under contract with the City to perform emergency utility
work such as water main repairs.
Recommendation for Action by Committee:
Recommend the City to forgo the public bidding process and directly hire DF
Tomasini for the emergency culvert replacement on Woods Road as time is of the
essence due to emergency response times for first responders.
