The Kokomo Board of Public Works and Safety on April 9 approved a certificate of final completion for the peak excess flow treatment project and approved large pay applications for ongoing water and sewer work.
John Piker, director of engineering, presented the final completion certificate for the peak excess flow treatment project, signed by the contractor, design engineer and Piker with consultation from Katie, wastewater treatment plant manager, and recommended the board accept the work. The board voted to approve the certificate of final completion and acceptance of work.
Piker also presented pay estimate number 4 for the Northeast water main extension project submitted by E. S. Wagner Company. Pay estimate number 4 reflects construction quantities and stored materials placed from Feb. 4, 2025 to March 2, 2025. The total amount of the pay estimate was $1,390,643.86 with 5% retainage of $69,532.19, yielding a requested disbursement of $1,321,111.67. Piker said the original contract amount was $4,210,569 and total work to date through pay estimate 4 is $3,223,069.64. The board approved pay estimate number 4 and authorized payment to E. S.
