Council awarded the NRCS EWP Woodhill flood project to B Hansen Construction for $373,380. Funding will come from NRCS EWP grant, a CIB grant/loan and the Price City stormwater fund; staff warned Woodhill Road will be closed during construction.
Price — The Price City Council authorized award of the NRCS Emergency Watershed Protection (EWP) Woodhill flood project to B Hansen Construction, the low bidder at $373,380, and authorized staff to issue a notice of award.
Staff described the project as a response to flooding that occurred about 18 months earlier and said the work will regrade and improve the flood ditch on Woodhill Road, convey water to a small detention basin before existing corrals and the reservoir, and protect houses along the corridor. Funding for the project includes an NRCS EWP grant, a CIB grant and loan, and the city's stormwater fund; staff noted a property purchase was completed to enable construction staging.
Council approved the award by voice vote and noted Woodhill Road will be closed for the duration of construction; staff said alternate routing and grading work will be provided for access during the project.
Next steps: issue notice of award, finalize construction schedule, and notify adjacent property owners and the public about road closures and detour routes.
