Wayne County committee approves nine procurement items; item 1 approval made contingent on corrected account number

The Wayne County Committee on Public Services voted to approve nine procurement and professional-services items, with one item held contingent on a clerical correction.

Commissioner Baydoun moved and Commissioner Clemente supported a motion to approve Items 1 through 9, with Item 1 contingent upon submission and verification of the correct account number prior to adoption by the full board. The presiding officer announced, "Motion carried." (Items were read into the record earlier in the meeting.)

Item 1 requested approval of Amendment 1 to a 2-year, 4-month agreement (with a six-month option) with Inland Water Pollution Control to isolate Bill's drain and rehabilitate an 18-inch connector sewer intended to prevent river water from entering the Rouge Valley Sewers disposal system. County staff acknowledged an incorrect account number on the agenda and confirmed the appropriation line will be revised and re-submitted for verification before the item is forwarded to the full board for final adoption.

Items approved as part of the omnibus motion were: - Item 1: Amendment 1 to a sewer rehabilitation agreement with Inland Water Pollution Control (approval contingent on verified account number). - Item 2: Amendment 4 to a one-year comparable-source contract with Signs by Crainy for signage and wayfinding improvements at Holiday Nature Preserve. - Item 3: Amendment 1 to a three-year professional services contract (one-year option) with Wade Trim Associates for post-construction activities for the Swan Drive bridge replacement over Swan Channel in Grosse Hill Township. - Item 4: Cooperative agreement with the Michigan Department of Transportation for improvements along Northline Road from Allen Road to Agnes Street in the City of Southgate. - Item 5: Amendment 1 to a cooperative agreement with Detroit Saw Company for the purchase of 23,850 tons of road salt. - Item 6: Cooperative agreement with Altec Industries for purchase of four man-lift trucks. - Item 7: Three-year professional services contract (one-year option) with Farmer and Underwood Trucking for on-demand aggregates. - Item 8: Cooperative agreement with Royal Truck and Trailer in Service for purchase of four Mac trailers. - Item 9: Cooperative agreement with Bridal Truck and Trailer Sale and Service for purchase of three Talbot trailers.

The presiding officer directed that account-number corrections for Item 1 be submitted and verified before the full-board vote. No public comments were offered during the meeting. The committee adjourned following the vote.

The committee will forward the items, including the conditional Item 1, to the full Wayne County Commission for final action.
