Bluff Council awards local contract to repair erosion on Calf Canyon Road and add curb on 7th West
Summary
Council accepted a local contractor's bid to remediate erosion on Calf Canyon Road and install curb and gutter on 7th Street West; the project has a matching grant and is expected to reduce the town's final share to about $44,000.
The Bluff Town Council approved awarding a locally bid contract to Sondregger (contractor name in the packet) to remediate ongoing erosion on Calf Canyon Road and install curb and gutter on 7th Street West.
Staff and a project presenter described the work as including subgrade repair, riprap, curb and gutter, drainage pipe installation to tie into existing storm drains, and a required survey. The project went to bid earlier in the year and initially drew a higher, out‑of‑town bid; the locally based contractor's proposal and an existing matching grant reduce the town's share of the cost. Staff estimated the town's net cost at approximately $44,000 after grant reimbursement.
Council asked technical questions about the survey limits, storm‑drain connections and long‑term durability. The presenter said the contractor is willing to sign a contract that staff and the roads committee believe protects the town's interests, and members emphasized the urgency of addressing active erosion. A motion to accept the bid carried on a voice vote.
What it means: the project will address active erosion that threatens road integrity and drainage; staff will finalize contract terms and coordinate with the engineer and contractor before construction starts.
