Commission approves in‑house upgrade of Moody Road lift station
Summary
Commissioners voted to proceed with an in‑house upgrade of the Moody Road lift station; motion carried after a motion and second were recorded.
The Palatka City Commission on April 24 approved a motion to proceed with an in‑house upgrade of the Moody Road lift station. The motion was made by Commissioner Dale and seconded by Commissioner David; the chair called for the vote and commissioners responded “Aye.”
Public works staff described the project as necessary to accommodate growth on Moody Road and said much of the work will be handled by city crews to reduce costs. Jeff, a city public works representative, said upgrades are planned because growth in the area requires improvements to the restoration system and related infrastructure.
Commissioners noted the city has previously approved funding for other lift station projects (the Francis lift station was discussed as already approved for the current year). The motion before the commission was specific to Moody Road and to perform the upgrade using in‑house staff.
Outcome: motion to move forward with the Moody Road lift station upgrade in‑house was approved.
