7.3 Water Services
Infiltration Gallery Renewal
This project is continuing at present. The work has had to proceed carefully to avoid creating
supply or water quality issues for the scheme.
During the work a leak was discovered in the older 200mm AC gravity main near the gallery. The leak meant that we were unable to pump enough water to supply the treatment plant and to supply the leak. This is being replaced with a new uPVC line in the first week of September. The
gallery work will then resume.
Water Pipeline Replacements 2016/17Tenders are open for Lampard Street between Blackford Street and Main Street, and close on 30 September 2016.
Water RestrictionsThere are no restrictions in effect at present.
Flowmeter Data
The report is attached. This comprises the following graphs:

Wastewater Pipeline Replacements 2016/17This year’s work was completed ahead of schedule in 2015/16. Investigations are ongoing with the relining contractor to determine the feasibility of bringing forward some of next year’s work for completion this year.

Total for 2015/16 104.24 Total to date for 2015/16 124.62
Year to Date for 2016/17 11.26 Year to Date for 2016/17 17.84
Projected Total for year end 135.12 Projected Total for year end 107.04
Key Points:
Activity Reporting Period = 01 August to 31 August 2016
Year to Date reporting period = 01 July to 31 July 2016
6 Bins have been allocated specifically for cardboard, this has been working well.
5 bins are allocated to co-mingle recycling, (plastics containers, tins and paper)
Servicing is currently twice weekly on Tuesdays and Thursdays, this will be reviewed at the
end of the ski season
Exception Report: Staff have received a quote from Council’s preferred security camera supplier to install a solar powered security camera system at the drop off site ($11,059.90).
The current quote exceeds the available budget ($6,755.00). The proposed system utilises 2 high definition cameras that can see further at night than a standard camera and one which is capable of capturing number plates. These cameras are power and data hungry which then impacts on the quality of the other components required to run the system.
Staff are re-visiting the specification and the quote with the supplier.

Key Points:

Year to Date reporting period = 01 July to 31 August 2016
The site continues to operate routinely
Exception Report: The site was kept closed on two days in early August due to snow and
muddy conditions. The operator made each call to close on arriving at the site on the days
concerned and assessing the risk of vehicles becoming stuck too high. This wasn’t communicated back to Council on the days concerned. This communication lapse has since
been rectified.

Key Points:
Activity Reporting Period = 01 August to 31 August 2016
Year to Date reporting period = 01 July to 31 August 2016
The service continued to operate routinely regardless of the variable weather through July
and August.
The big blue recycling station in the Railway Reserve has new latches installed on its bins.
Refurbishment of the towns centre litterbins has begun. This is progressing well.
Exception Report: The stock town centre litterbins were installed in 2003 and were depreciated across an expected life of ten years. These (32) bins are now 13 years old and
passed their expected life. They are valued (replacement value) at an average of $1,545.00 each. A total replacement cost for the streetscape bins of $49,440.00
This is based on their original cost which likely results from being part of a wider streetscape
project and having been index adjusted at each year’s valuation. An estimate to replace these bins which are not a stock standard item at today’s prices and without the benefit of costs savings from the original project would be higher than this. It would be prudent to review the replacement cost of these bins and the budgeting for their ongoing maintenance and repair
through the next annual plan process.
