Council approves settlement agreement with contractor in construction dispute
Summary
Council authorized the city manager to execute documents finalizing a settlement between the City of Rock Island, Bridal and Jean, and General Constructors of the Quad Cities; approval passed on roll call.
The Rock Island City Council on Monday approved a settlement agreement presented by the city attorney between the City of Rock Island, Bridal and Jean, and General Constructors of the Quad Cities.
A city-attorney report recommended approval of the settlement and a motion to authorize the city manager to execute the documents passed on a roll-call vote with alderpersons Pulis, Healy, Evans, Hertz, Barnes, Swanson and Parker recorded as voting “aye.”
The council’s action authorized execution of the settlement documents; the public discussion during the meeting did not include the settlement’s dollar amount or detailed terms. The city attorney’s report and the motion to authorize execution indicate the matter is concluded pending the city manager’s signature and any administrative steps to finalize the agreement.
Council did not amend terms on the floor, and the approval closed the agenda item as described by the city attorney’s report.
