Council approves Wallcraft contract for creek wall footing repairs after collapse
Summary
City authorized a contract with Wallcraft to repair creek wall footings that collapsed; council and finance committee approved the work as an immediate repair.
Homewood City Council on May 12 approved a resolution authorizing the city manager to execute a contract with Wallcraft to repair creek wall footings damaged by a collapse behind properties near Broadway. The finance committee reported a unanimous recommendation to approve the contract.
A councilor clarified that the creek-wall repair is distinct from a separate referral item related to a pool liner or work at 711 Broadway. The item approved at the meeting covers footing repairs for the creek wall; the contractor has been mobilized and the work was recommended for immediate approval to address the collapse.
Council voted 10–0 to authorize execution of the contract; the resolution appears on the docket as 25‑69. Public-works and the city's engineering staff will oversee the repair contract and confirm the scope and schedule with the contractor.
