Cody council approves park irrigation contract, waterline retainage release and lift station change order

The Cody City Council approved three infrastructure actions during the meeting: an independent-contractor agreement for irrigation replacement at Doris Miller Park, authorization to advertise to release retainage for the Tree Streets waterline replacement Phase 2, and change order No. 3 on the North Lift Station Improvement Project.

Jake Moyer, the staff reference for these items, told the council the matters had been discussed at the prior work session and that there were no substantive changes. On the Doris Miller Park irrigation contract he said: “This is to do the irrigation system at Doris Miller. There's been no new items or changes to this, so I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have.”

On the Tree Streets waterline replacement, Moyer said the action would "give us the green light to start advertising for 41 days so we can release Wilson Brothers retainage." The council moved and approved the substantive motions on each of the three items; the mayor announced each motion carried. Individual roll-call vote tallies were not transcribed.

Details of the approved items: - Doris Miller Park irrigation: agreement with Pawnee Irrigation Evergreen Landscapes for replacement of the park irrigation system; staff reference Jake Moyer. - Tree Streets waterline replacement (Phase 2): authorization to advertise for release of Wilson Brothers' retainage (advertising period stated as 41 days). - North Lift Station Improvement Project: approval of change order No. 3 with Western Municipal Construction.

The council did not discuss substantive changes to scope or budget in the meeting transcript; staff said the items matched what was presented at the earlier work session.
