When the City of Rawlins let the bid for the complete rebuild of Walnut Street, staff forgot to include one very important aspect of the project: the replacement of the 90-year-old sanitary sewer line beneath the road surface. The omission was caught just in time by new Director of Public Works, Mark Carney.

The governing body approved a change order to allow for the installation of about 1,300 feet of new sanitary sewer line. The project remains under budget, and on schedule. Cali O’Hare reports.
