Sweetwater awards $215,860 contract to replace water line under Union Pacific tracks
Summary
Council accepted the low bid of $215,860 from Fambro Construction to replace a 10-inch water line under Union Pacific Railroad tracks, restoring a main feed to the north side of town.
The Sweetwater City Council on June 10 awarded a construction contract to Fambro Construction to replace a 10-inch water line under the Union Pacific Railroad tracks off Robert Lee Street.
Justin (city staff) said the line had leaked years earlier and remained isolated; restoring that section will reestablish a primary feed to the north side of town. Two bids were received: Fambro Construction at $215,860 and Curtis Companies at $368,505. City staff recommended accepting the low bid from Fambro Construction, and the council voted to approve the award.
A council member moved to approve the contract; the motion carried. Staff did not add other conditions in the recorded discussion. Implementation will proceed under the city’s normal construction contract processes.
