Board approves multiple contractor pay estimates, final retainage release and a concrete license
Summary
The Board of Public Works approved pay estimates totaling multiple hundreds of thousands of dollars across infrastructure projects, released a $5,000 retainage for a 2023 street construction project, and approved a concrete license for Ross Construction LLC.
The Board of Public Works on Aug. 12 approved several pay estimates and a concrete license for Ross Construction LLC as part of routine contract administration and project closeouts.
Payments approved included a $76,190.98 payment for the 2025 sidewalk repair project A (S.D. Ellenbecker pay estimate no. 3), $660,666.83 for work to date on the Washington Street siphon replacement project (A-1 Excavating pay estimate no. 1), $523,056.96 for 2025 Street Construction Project B (Switlick & Sons pay estimate no. 4), and $472,915.50 for 2025 asphalt paving project A (American Asphalt pay estimate no. 1). The board also approved releasing $5,000 in retainage to close out the 2023 Street Construction project covering Day, Grant and Henrietta streets from Hassans Incorporated; staff said restoration holdback was adequate and recommended releasing the total retainage.
Inspectors reviewed or approved the listed estimates: Matt Guptail was cited as approving the sidewalk repair estimate; Kurt DeBoer as the inspector recommending Project B payment; and Brian Pettit was referenced as the project inspector for the asphalt paving item. Board members moved and seconded motions to approve each payment and the retainage release; each motion carried on an affirmative voice vote. The board also approved a concrete license for Ross Construction LLC after a board member indicated they had reviewed it.
The transcript does not include contract numbers, completion timelines, retainage-release conditions other than restoration being adequate, nor details on remaining contract scopes or warranties. No dissenting votes or public commentary on these items are recorded in the meeting excerpt.
