Summary
At a Pulaski County meeting, commissioners approved claims and the Aug. 18 minutes by voice vote and received a staff update that field surveys for an interim tile project are complete and preliminary design work is under way. Bids for multiple projects are expected to open in November.
Pulaski County officials approved claims and the minutes from Aug. 18 and heard an update on an "interim tile" infrastructure project, meeting participants said.
County staff said bids for multiple projects will open in November and that survey work for the interim tile project is complete, with preliminary design and alignment work next.
The vote items were handled by voice. A motion to approve claims was made, seconded and approved by voice; the record shows the minutes from Aug. 18 were also approved by voice. The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn.
On project details, a speaker identified as Frank said, "Field efforts are complete. We have all the data from our surveying department. They're processing that, which part of the preliminary design. Be with Jenny next week. We got a date set to go routing and alignment, sign option last couple of weeks." Frank added that once routing and alignment are finalized, staff will have a firmer schedule for final plans and the project.
Jen said the clerk's office will open bids in November. In her remarks she stated, "so in November, we're gonna be opening up some bids. I've sent out 6 projects, contractors, so that'll become November." She also noted that local farmers would be returning to the fields in roughly a week and that "some have already started, so problems will arise," indicating potential impacts to project access or timing.
Jen said she had spoken with a person named John about phasing for the work; specific phasing details were not provided in the meeting record.
