The Saint Joseph City Council approved a broad consent agenda that included contract awards, budget amendments and equipment purchases.
Notable items approved included a unit-price contract with RS Electric Utility Services in the amount of $1,054,157.25 for a signalized-intersection mast-arm conversions project using previously approved American Rescue Plan Act funds. The clerk also read a resolution authorizing a contract with Texas Environmental Plastics Ltd. to construct a synthetic liner at the St. Joseph Sanitary Landfill for $371,584.13 and multiple equipment purchases for park maintenance and other city divisions (examples: a Bobcat for $64,310.34, a Kubota mower for $28,292.48, and a utility tractor and flex‑wing mower for $74,511.86) funded from park sales tax and other identified funds.
Council members asked clarifying questions about jurisdiction and responsibility for specific streets included in the traffic-signal project. The item passed by electronic vote with a 9-0 tally.
Several other items were read for first reading or informational purposes, including amendments to animal-registration fees, a memorandum of understanding for public-service radio and tower funding, WIC nutrition program funding, and multiple aviation-project change orders at Rosecrans Memorial Airport.
