Bolivar approves TJ Construction bid for ARP-funded galvanized water-line project
Summary
The Bolivar City Council approved a recommendation to award a federal ARP-funded contract to TJ Construction to replace a galvanized water line; council made the motion and approved the bid as recommended by the utility board and engineers.
Bolivar City Council approved a recommendation to award TJ Construction the base bid for an ARP-funded galvanized water-line replacement project during its meeting. The award was presented as a positive recommendation from the utility board and the city’s engineering firm.
The bid was described in the council packet as a base bid of “$624,783 and $90.96 cent,” and council members said the amount falls within the grant budget. Council member Williams made the motion to approve the bid and Council member Lapp seconded; the council voted to carry the motion.
Council members and staff said the award follows a recommendation from the utility board, which reviewed contractor bids on July 2. The contract is intended to replace existing galvanized water lines as part of a funded project; city staff and the utility board recommended TJ Construction as the lowest and responsive bidder within the grant limits.
No additional amendments to the award were recorded in the meeting and no roll-call vote tally was read into the record at the time of approval.
City staff said the project is within the ARP grant budget and will move forward to contract execution and construction scheduling. Further details about start dates, construction staging, or the contract signature timeline were not specified at the meeting.
