Camp Verde awards multiple Sports Complex and public-works contracts totaling about $683,000
Summary
The council approved six contract awards and two rescinded prior awards for Sports Complex infrastructure and town street striping, including a $341,570 lift station contract and several supply and installation contracts, with total commitments of roughly $683,000.
Camp Verde's council on March 5 approved a slate of public-works contracts tied primarily to the Camp Verde Sports Complex and general street maintenance, totaling roughly $683,000.
CIP Project Manager Martin Smith told the council the work includes a lift station and force main to convey sewage from a planned concession stand to the wastewater treatment plant (gravity flow is not feasible), electrical service for the future concession/restroom building, a prefabricated irrigation pump building, force-main and irrigation supplies, and townwide street striping.
Key awards recorded in the minutes: - Earth Resources Corporation — Sports Complex Lift Station and Force Main Installation: $341,570.00 (lowest responsive bid). Council discussed prior change-order concerns but Smith said he had vetted the firm; motion approved 6-0 (Councilor Murdock absent). - Fann Environmental, LLC — Sports Complex Electrical Improvements: $89,185.03; awarded 6-0. - Bunger Steel — Irrigation pump building for irrigation improvements: $42,399.00; approval superseded a prior canopy-only approval. - Ferguson Waterworks — Force main supplies: $63,108.18; award followed a rescind of an earlier Core & Main award after plan simplification reduced required parts. - Ferguson Waterworks — Irrigation supplies: $79,375.73; award rescinded earlier Core & Main award dated July 17, 2024. - Traffic Safety, Inc. — Town street striping project: $67,307.59; lowest responsible bid.
Several awards replaced or rescinded prior approvals to Core & Main from July 17, 2024 after the town engineer simplified plans and reduced parts. Council recorded each award by roll call; all motions carried 6-0 with Councilor Jessie Murdock absent.
Council discussion included past performance concerns with contractors and assurances from CIP staff about vetting. Contracts will proceed to standard procurement follow-ups, permitting and project scheduling.
