Village approves $153,168 final payment for South 83 water main relining
Summary
The Village of Hartland approved payment number 5 to Mid City Corporation for $153,168 for the South 83 Water Main Rehabilitation Project; staff said the overage was driven by an unexpectedly close sewer main and one-year warranty retention will be held.
The Village of Hartland on Jan. 13 approved payment number 5 to Mid City Corporation for $153,168 for the South 83 Water Main Rehabilitation Project.
Village staff told the board the project exceeded initial estimates by about $50,000 after crews discovered the water main and a sewer main were much closer together than shown on records, requiring a reroute when the line was exposed. Staff recommended releasing the payment while holding a one-year retainage to cover the one-year warranty period.
Staff said the retention amount held back on the contract is $57,845.63 and that the one-year warranty will be the basis for releasing that retainage if no defects appear. Board members asked whether the project had other problems; staff replied the work went “really well” given the challenging underground conditions in that corridor. A motion to approve payment number 5 was moved and seconded and carried by voice vote.
The action closes the contractor’s final invoice for that phase of the South 83 rehabilitation as recorded at the meeting.
The board did not identify a formal roll-call tally in the meeting minutes; the motion passed by voice vote.
