Summary

City staff provided updates on major capital projects: wastewater-plant work is underway, the dog shelter remains delayed while structural issues are resolved after a windstorm, and CMAR submittals for police and fire stations will open at the start of the year. Parker Terrace utility work resumed and bond-funded panel replacements remain in design.

City staff delivered construction updates Dec. 15, reporting work on several capital projects and procurement steps planned for early 2026.

Scott (speaker 8), presenting the update, said the wastewater-plant project is underway and crews are performing work expected from the contractor. He said the dog shelter project is delayed while the city’s engineer and the contractor’s structural engineer resolve issues stemming from a windstorm; the city hoped the issue would be resolved that week but had no final update in the meeting.

Scott said CMAR (Construction Manager at Risk) proposals for the police and fire stations are being received and will be opened at the start of the year so construction can move forward. He added that Parker Terrace utility work has resumed with dry weather and that pavement removal and street work will follow once utility work is complete. On bond-funded panel replacements from the 2021 bond, Scott said design teams are selected and survey work is underway; projects will be divided among engineers to speed delivery and release as they are ready.

Council asked whether most of the $8,000,000 in bond-funded work would be complete before summer; staff said construction timelines and contractor capacity make that unlikely but that the city expects progress as designs and surveys are finalized.

No formal action was required; council received the report and asked staff to continue updates.
