On at least two separate occasions in late December 2007 and early January 2008, a continuous water flow was observed emanating from a pipe connected to the IRRIGATION CONTROL VALVE near the enclosed dumpster at the Forest Theatre. A Question is asked regarding the City’s plan to stop this unnecessary and preventable periodic loss of water.
IRRIGATION CONTROL VALVEContinious Water Flow
Near Enclosed Dumpster
Forest Theatre
Mountain View Av. & Santa Rita St.
IRRIGATION CONTROL VALVE & Trench Filling with WaterDESCRIPTION:
• On Christmas Day, Tuesday, December 25, 2007, a neighbor of the Forest Theatre heard a gargling sound emanating from the area near the dumpster enclosure in Forest Theatre. Upon closer examination, next to the irrigation control valve was a square cubic area filled with water. Later, another concerned neighbor dug a trench to dissipate some of the water and discovered what had been a submerged pipe emitting a continuous flow of water. Sometime later, the water flow subsided. Then, on New Year’s Day, Tuesday, January 1, 2008, water was again observed continuously flowing from the same pipe into the trench. Apparently, there is a non-mechanical, electronic trigger mechanism causing continuous water flow from this pipe on a periodic basis at the Forest Theatre.
QUESTION:
• What is the City’s plan to rectify the unnecessary and preventable periodic loss of water emanating from one of the three irrigation control valves in the Forest Theatre?
