Water System Upgrade – Project Update
December 23, 2011

Please Review the Water System Upgrade Plans for Your Lot

The Ponderosa roads were surveyed in 2011, and our engineering firms used those surveys for the design engineering. We have now reached the “50% review” milestone of the water system design and the plans are available for your review at the office or online.

In an effort to make the construction go as smoothly as possible (and minimize change order costs to PCC), we would appreciate any information you can give us about obstructions for trenching (such as septic systems, large rocks, etc…) and/or the path of the water line. Also, if you see errors in the plans, please let us know. The plans are not yet final and changes can be made. Please send feedback or questions to Mary Cox at pccmgr@nwi.net or call 509-763-0320. We would appreciate your feedback by February 15.

To view the plans at the office, we are generally in the office from about 10:30am – 3:30pm M-F, and 10am-2pm on Saturdays.  However, there is a specific schedule on the office door because our hours can vary from week to week depending on our tasks.  Please call the office at 763-0320 for more information.

The plans are also available at the following link:

http://bothell.rh2.com/Documents/Ponderosa/Overview.pdf

Directions for website use:

  • There is a legend on the overview map page.
  • Click a street name to see all the plans for that street. 
  • The plans are presented in a slightly different format for Camp 12 Road and Riata than for the rest of the Ponderosa.  This is because we had two engineering firms working together to develop the plans, and they use different tools.
  • For Camp 12 Road, Riata, and the area above Camp 12 Road labeled “Upper Alignment”:
    • When you click a street name, a pdf file will open with multiple pages.
    • A task bar will appear at the bottom of the page which will allow you to zoom in, and to move between pages.  If the task bar disappears, move your cursor to the bottom center of the page and it will reappear.
  • For the rest of the Ponderosa, when you click on a street name, the plans are listed by address/lot number.  Click on the plan you wish to review. 
  • At the top of the page is a zoom function.  The plans appear at 25% by default.  Increasing the size to 50% is helpful, then use the scroll bars to see the entire plan.

In the future, we will use this website and map for the “90%” plan review, construction schedules, and the like.

Please Note

  • The lots highlighted in purple are those lots which have a Ponderosa water service valve within the member’s private property.  As part of the water project, we will put the new water valves on Ponderosa property and connect to the existing water service line.  In January, I will send a letter to every owner of a purple lot explaining the process.
  • The lots highlighted in green are those lots where there might be significant reconnection distances.  These are still being reviewed.  If needed, I will contact owners of green lots.
