The Village of Hartland board approved payment No. 5 of $153,168 to Mid City Corporation on Jan. 13 as the contractor’s final payment for the South 83 Water Main Rehabilitation Project and also approved vouchers totaling $1,085,412.42.

Village staff told trustees the project went well but ran about $50,000 over original projections after crews discovered a sewer main closer to the water main than shown in records and had to reroute work around it. Staff said a one-year warranty applies and the village is holding $57,845.63 in retainage for that period.

The board moved and seconded the payment and the vouchers; no objections were recorded and the motions carried. A trustee asked whether the $153,168 payment was included in the larger vouchers packet; staff confirmed it was.

Staff described the South 83 relining as a technically challenging segment because of the existing utilities in that corridor but said no major problems occurred during construction. The board did not request additional reports beyond the retained warranty funds.

The approvals complete closeout paperwork for the South 83 contract and authorize payment flows from the village’s accounts as presented by staff.
