Board approves wastewater pay applications, awards $5.12M pump‑station contract and clears $4.75M in claims
Summary
During its Jan. 27 meeting the Anderson City Board of Works approved Pay Applications 12 and 13 to Atlas Excavating for Interceptor Phase 2B, issued a notice of award to FA Wilhelm Construction for Division 4 pump station rehabilitation at $5,115,750, and approved claims totaling $4,752,420.40.
The Anderson City Board of Works voted Jan. 27 to approve contractor payments and a construction contract and to pay claims totaling $4,752,420.40, according to the meeting record.
Unidentified Speaker (S4) presented two pay applications from Atlas Excavating for work on Interceptor Phase 2B and asked the board to approve pay Application 12 and pay Application 13. Unidentified Speaker (S2) moved to approve each pay application as requested by Superintendent Pasco (the transcript contains variant spellings 'Pasco', 'Pascoe' and 'Paschal'); Unidentified Speaker (S1) seconded and the board approved both applications.
The board also approved issuing a notice of award to FA Wilhelm Construction Company, Inc. for the Division 4 dry‑weather pump station and force main rehabilitation. Staff reviewed bids opened Jan. 13, 2026, and identified FA Wilhelm as the apparent low, responsive, and responsible bidder at $5,115,750. Unidentified Speaker (S2) moved to award the Division 4 contract to FA Wilhelm; Unidentified Speaker (S1) seconded and the motion carried.
Unidentified Speaker (S5) read the claims register: Zippel City $2,987,168.60; Light and Power $916,198.30; Water Department $367,568.67; Water Pollution $441,087.83; Stormwater $40,397. Total claims presented were $4,752,420.40. Unidentified Speaker (S2) moved to approve the claims; Unidentified Speaker (S1) seconded and the board approved payment.
Why it matters: The pay applications and contract award advance wastewater infrastructure work in Anderson City, including a multi‑million dollar pump station rehabilitation. Approving claims disburses operating and capital funds across city departments. The board did not record extended public comment or a roll‑call vote record in the transcript; votes were announced as affirmative in the meeting record.
The transcript lists FA Wilhelm as the apparent low bidder at $5,115,750 and describes the company as responsive and responsible. The record does not include the full bid tabulation in the meeting remarks; staff indicated bids were opened Jan. 13, 2026. The meeting did not provide a department breakdown of funds for the FA Wilhelm contract beyond the bid amount.
