The project generally consists of constructing new guardrails at selected locations on Bradshaw Drive from a point south of Goodwin Street to Jacob Lane.
When a project has been approved in the budget by the City Council, it moves from the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) list into the active Design phase. The Design phase is an exploratory process where City staff identifies key elements of the project, researches information needed to implement the project, hires an engineering firm to lead the design team and solicits public input.
The design of a project is a very important first step to identify construction elements to promote the timely delivery of the project with as little impact to neighboring properties as possible.
A Project Manager (PM) is assigned to each project on the CIP list. The PM is the point of contact for the public and is responsible for guiding the engineering firm through the design process until a complete set of plans are approved by the City.
As the plans are developed, they go through phases of completion. These phases are known as:
Public input on the design of a project is typically done around the 30%-60% plan phases. A community open house meeting may be held by the City and design engineer to explain the project, answer questions and get input from the public. By this time, enough information is known about the project to answer questions and have a good understanding of the needs of the project.
The project generally consists of constructing new guardrails at selected locations on Bradshaw Drive from a point south of Goodwin Street to Jacob Lane.
The project consists of additions and improvements to the Airport Water Reclamation Facility dewatering operations, to include the addition of one (1) new building, two (2) centrifuges or dewatering units, and one (1) 1M-1.5M gallon solids holding tank which will ensure the City has the capacity and redundancy for centralizing wastewater processing at the AWRF facility.
The City advertised an RSOQ in April, will start reviewing the SOQs in May, and plans to award an engineering contract by summer 2024. Bidding and awarding a construction contract will occur in late summer 2025, starting construction in the fall of 2025, and construction is scheduled to be complete in late 2026.
The City’s original Master Area Drainage Study (MADS) was completed in 1999. The new MADS will reflect the significant changes in drainage by accounting for development, newer/better topographic data, and more accurate NOAA Atlas 14 rainfall data. The new flood study will determine the flow magnitudes, flow depth and flow velocities for the 10-, 100- and 500-year flooding events. The study will utilize a new 2-dimensional model to update the hydrology and hydraulics and be considered best available data to be used for all future planning studies, design projects and flood risk assessments.
The revised flood hazard mapping studies will provide residents and business owners more accurate regulatory floodplain limits, which helps to determine the need for flood insurance.
The project consists of the removal and replacement of deteriorated asphalt at four locations, Amherst Drive, Baylor Drive, Cornell Drive, and Duke Drive.

Work on Forbis Street will include drainage redesign and replacement of deteriorated asphalt, subgrade, and curb repairs as needed.
On Ainsworth Drive, work will include the removal and replacement of deteriorated asphalt.
The project consists of the replacement of chipseal over millings roads with new asphalt at multiple locations. The roadway width should be maintained where possible; if the roadway is under 20 feet wide, Staff will determine if it is possible to widen the roadway. Some of the roads are one way in and one way out. Drainage on all road will be analyzed on a road-by-road basis, as they are all are a little different. Utility Adjustments for construction will be needed.

The proposed Lift Station will be located at the southwest corner of SR89 and Prescott Lakes Parkway. A new force main will connect the Lift Station to the existing gravity sewer system in Prescott Lakes Parkway. Construction of this lift station will include a reimbursement district for all parcels that will benefit from its construction.
The Prescott Fire Department is planning infrastructure improvements to the live fire training facility at 2898 Sundog Ranch Road. The recently completed Master Plan and Report outlines phased improvements to the fire fighting training facilities, that includes, but is not limited to:
The project will be completed in phases as the Fire Department’s budget allows.
The Sundog Sewer Main Phase C3 includes the design of a Downtown Regional Lift Station and approximately 25,000 linear feet of 18” force main beginning at the proposed Downtown Regional Lift Station and continuing northward in 6th Street, westward in Merritt Avenue and Montezuma Street, northward in Ruth Street and Demerse Avenue, eastward in Prescott Heights Drive, northward in Campbell Avenue, eastward in Rosser Street and northward in Highway 89 to its terminus at an existing force main stub at the Highway 89 and Prescott Lakes Parkway intersection. A portion of the force main (2,020 linear feet) has been previously designed with the Sundog Trunk Main Phase B project and will be updated and incorporated into the Phase C3 project. The design also includes the design of approximately 2,500 linear feet of 24” sewer trunk and 8” branch mains from the eastern end of Sonora Drive, along the edge of Granite Creek, under the La Guardia Bridge (Montezuma Street), through Granite Creek Park to its terminus at the new 6th Street Regional Lift Station site.
This project consists of the removal and replacement of asphalt and subgrade, narrowing the road to add new curb and gutter, and sidewalk on one side of the street (TBD). This project will also replace the old ACP waterline with a new DIP waterline, and the replacement of sidewalk ramps at the corner of Gail Gardner Way and Whetstine Ave.
The project will consist of the replacement of an old, outdated lift station, which is located behind properties along Highland Terrace (within the Wildwood Estates Subdivision). Due to its location, the lift station is very difficult to access and maintain. The city is planning to abandon the lift station and reroute sewer lines to a proposed new gravity sewer main extended from Wildwood Drive.
The project will install a new gravity sewer system to replace the existing force main where the City currently pumps wastewater along Willow Lake Rd. to the Prescott Lakes Regional Lift Station. The project will also allow the City to remove the Willow Lake Regional Lift Station. The elimination of the lift station will help to reduce the annual maintenance cost of operating the City’s sanitary sewer system.
This project is located on Hornet Drive in Yavapai Hills. The project generally consists of drainage improvements along Hornet Drive, possible trench drains, catch basins and drainage channels. This project is in the early stages of design.
The Zone 24 & Zone 27 Water Main Piping Replacement Project will consist of various water distribution main improvements within water system, for Pressure Zone 24 and Zone 27 in the western part of Prescott. The project will include the installation of a new 12-inch water main from the Thumb Butte Drive and Sherwood Drive intersection to Meadowbrook and Forest Meadows, and a new 12-inch water main from the Zone 24 Reservoir at Lookout Lane to the new Zone 27 Reservoir.
The first phase of the project completed the installation of a 12″ water main using Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) between Meadowbrook Rd and Skyline Dr. This method allowed the City to install the new water main without impacting the existing water main that feeds the Zone 27 tank on Forest Hills Rd as well as significantly decrease the impacts to the residents who use Forest Hills as the sole access to their homes.
