Summary
Council approved masonry repairs at city buildings, a relocated fence to secure a facility, and hired a part-time wastewater worker at $15/hour; staff said the repairs will be performed within the city’s capital allocation.
The City Council approved several maintenance and staffing items on June 2, including masonry repairs, fence relocation to secure a public-works facility and the hire of a part-time wastewater plant worker.
The council approved masonry repairs at 624 Eastern Avenue (not to exceed $17,200) and tuckpointing and related repairs at 225 Perry Avenue (not to exceed $8,700). Staff said bids were solicited and that Abbey Road was the low bidder; Abbey Road noted it would pay prevailing wage for the jobs. The council also approved relocating a fence at 624 Eastern Avenue using the original large gate and installing approximately 290 feet of fabric and a 32-foot gate; the fence work was authorized at a cost not to exceed $8,825.
Personnel: The council approved hiring Neil (spelled Neil in personnel materials) as a part-time worker for the wastewater treatment plant at $15 per hour.
Why it matters: Staff said these repairs and the fence relocation will help secure and preserve city facilities and keep buildings in usable condition. The approved work will be funded from the capital allocation discussed elsewhere on the agenda.
Ending: Work will proceed under the approved authorizations and prevailing-wage requirements where noted; the positions and repairs were approved by voice votes at the June 2 meeting.
