Freemansburg council authorizes $252,000 in contractor payments for Main Street reconstruction
Summary
Council voted 5-0 to authorize two contractor payments totaling $251,941.73 to Construction Masters Services, LLC for the Main Street Reconstruction Project, covering work periods ending Dec. 31, 2024, and Jan. 31, 2025.
Council members in Freemansburg on April 1 authorized two payments to the contractor rebuilding Main Street, totaling $251,941.73. The motion to authorize Application for Payment No. 5 for $102,281.45 (period ending Dec. 31, 2024) and Application for Payment No. 6 for $149,660.28 (period ending Jan. 31, 2025) were recorded as passed 5-0.
The contractor is listed in the minutes as Construction Masters Services, LLC. The payments were presented during the finance section of the meeting; the agenda identifies them as progress payments for the Main Street Reconstruction Project. Council recorded M. Lorrah and Monica Elliott as the mover/second on Application No. 6 and the minutes record a 'Lorrah' and second Monica Elliott for Application No. 5. Where the minutes used only the surname 'Lorrah' without an initial, the record does not specify which Lorrah served as mover; the council vote tallies were unanimous in both cases.
Council reviewed related financial items earlier in the meeting, including payroll for March pay periods and remittance reports from Portnoff Law Associates for collection of sewer, trash and real estate tax amounts ($1,156.87; $1,067.31; $216.19 respectively). The minutes do not list any conditions or offsets on the contractor payments. The Main Street project is ongoing and, per the agenda, additional contractor invoices may appear on future council dockets.
The meeting record does not show substantive public protest or amendment to the payments. The council adjourned at 7:37 PM.
