Public Works committee: approvals on contracts, interlocals and equipment awards; summary of votes
Summary
The Overland Park Public Works Committee voted on multiple items including engineering services for 2027 neighborhood street reconstruction, interlocal agreements with Leawood, a Johnson County bridge interlocal, and equipment and salt procurements; most items carried unanimously.
The Overland Park Public Works Committee completed votes on a series of procurement and interlocal items following its budget and site-access discussions. Key actions recommended to the City Council or approved by the committee:
- Engineering services for the 2027 Neighborhood Street Reconstruction program: staff reported a competitive selection process and recommended award of an engineering agreement (scoping fee not to exceed $1,038,830). The committee recommended the award and forwarded the agreement to Council (committee motion carried 6-0).
- Interlocal agreement with the City of Leawood for pavement preservation/reconstruction on 130th Street (Metcalf to 660 feet east of Knoll): estimated total project cost $2,480,274.83 with a Leawood cost share of $112,619.24; committee recommended approval to Council (motion carried 6-0).
- Interlocal agreement with the City of Leawood for pavement preservation on 150th Street (Metcalf to Nall): estimated total project cost $1,660,000; Leawood cost share $159,200; Johnson County CARS contribution $604,000; city share after partners $878,800; committee recommended approval to Council (motion carried 6-0).
- Interlocal agreement with Johnson County for bridge reconstruction of Plum Road over Coffee Creek (BR1902): estimated total cost $5,630,000, city share $2,815,000 (50/50 split with county); committee recommended approval to Council (motion carried 6-0). Staff noted design will accommodate future four-lane divided roadway and trail connection.
- Equipment and procurement awards: committee recommended awards and purchases to Council or approved them as committee actions: JetVac vacuum/hydro-excavation truck awarded to Armor Equipment (MH Logistics dba Armor Equipment) for $551,535.32; single-axle snow-plow dump truck build awarded to J and D Equipment (dba American Equipment) for $173,820; cooperative rock salt procurement with Central Salt LLC named as primary vendor and Independent Salt as alternate, with total purchases not to exceed $250,000. All equipment/procurement recommendations carried or were approved by the committee on voice votes (typical tally 6-0).
Votes were taken by voice; when roll-call tallies were given the committee reported unanimous approval for the procurement and interlocal items. Where staff noted contract amounts and scoping fees, those numeric totals match the numbers in the committee packet and staff presentations.
