Summary

The city awarded Crowell Earthwork a contract for $18,000 to demolish structures at 2690 Poland Hill Road, retaining a usable pole barn for repurposing as part of the Poland Hill Road project.

Jeremy Grinard, the city engineer, told the council that the city purchased the property at 2690 Poland Hill Road for phase 1 of the Poland Hill Road project and recommended demolition of a house and several small structures that posed a potential safety risk. Grinard said the city will remove all structures except for a pole barn "that's in good condition, has a concrete floor and electricity and and everything. And we're gonna keep that and repurpose it for city use," and recommended awarding the demolition contract to Crowell Earthwork for $18,000.

Grinard said the city received three quotes: Poisal at $21,050; Mike Snyder at $33,000; and Crowell Earthwork at $18,000. The council approved the Crowell contract by voice vote. The decision authorizes the work needed to clear structures ahead of the Poland Hill Road project; the transcript records no contractor start date or demolition schedule.

Discussion versus decision: Grinard's remarks described the scope and rationale (discussion); the council then voted to approve the demolition contract (formal action).
