Aldermen authorize mayor to contract with B and B Concrete for sidewalks near school bus stop, ask staff to expedite work
Summary
The board authorized the mayor to enter a contract with B and B Concrete Solutions for proposed sidewalks and commercial‑development work; aldermen discussed sequencing and asked staff to expedite work at school bus areas for safety.
The Willow Board of Aldermen authorized the mayor to enter a contract with B and B Concrete Solutions to construct sidewalks associated with a commercial development and other city sidewalks.
Board members discussed sequencing and mobilization, including a desire to prioritize areas used as school bus stops so pedestrian safety concerns would be addressed quickly. Staff said the same contractor is performing related work and can mobilize segments in a sequence the board prefers; the contract authority was described as authorizing the mayor to execute the agreement.
An alderman asked whether authorizing the contract would obligate payment immediately; staff said mobilization and billing practices are handled by the contractor and city pay authorization processes. A motion to authorize the mayor to enter the contract was made, seconded and carried by roll call.
