Highland Park council approves RFP to solicit bids for pothole repairs
Summary
Council approved a Public Works resolution authorizing an RFP for pothole repairs. Staff said bids will cover specific streets selected after an inspection ride and work will be limited by available Act 51 funding.
Highland Park council voted unanimously to approve a Public Works resolution authorizing the issuance of a request for proposals to repair potholes across the city.
Public Works staff explained that the RFP will describe specific streets and addresses identified after an inspection ride and that available funding (Act 51 or similar sources) will limit how many streets can be included. Council member questions focused on whether the RFP would cover all streets or only prioritized segments; staff said budget constraints mean not all streets can be addressed at once.
Council moved to approve the resolution, and the clerk recorded yes votes from Councilman Ashafi/Ashaffey, Councilwoman Martin, Councilwoman Manuka, Council pro tem Robinson and Council president Thomas.
Council did not provide a detailed funding breakdown or exact list of targeted streets at the meeting; staff said they plan to document the streets for bidders and that award would depend on available funds.
