Board approves bid solicitation for wet detention basin tied to DNR grant
Summary
Marshfield authorized solicitation of construction bids for a wet detention basin (Braine/Green Park) after receiving a $150,000 DNR urban nonpoint source construction grant; Strand Associates was engaged for design and related services.
The Board of Public Works on Feb. 3 authorized staff to solicit construction bids for a wet detention basin project intended to reduce phosphorus discharges.
Speaker 5 told the board the city was notified in November 2024 that it had been awarded a Department of Natural Resources urban nonpoint source construction grant of $150,000 — the maximum available through that program — to support design and construction of the Braine Park wet detention basin. Strand Associates was hired in early 2025 to provide design, Clean Water Fund loan assistance, wetland delineation and bidding services. Plans and specifications were described as nearly complete, and staff sought authorization to solicit bids for construction.
A motion to authorize solicitation of bids was made, seconded and carried by voice vote. The board recorded no individual vote tallies in the transcript. Staff indicated the grant will fund design and construction efforts and that plans will be circulated for bidding once finalized.
