Summary
The City of Green River approved a $412,207.46 award to JCI for pressure‑reducing valve upgrades on the municipal water system after staff recommended JCI and council discussion about contractor oversight and project coordination.
The City of Green River authorized a contract award to JCI for pressure‑reducing valve (PRV) upgrades (project 3‑2025) at its March 10 council meeting.
Staff reviewed bid results and recommended JCI after comparing bids; the low bidder figures were presented and the engineer described the work as replacement of PRV vault components, new PRVs and gate valves and some associated repairs. The engineer and staff discussed lessons learned from past projects — recommending closer contractor communication and weekly coordination meetings for complex work to avoid delays or rework.
A councilmember moved to award the PRV upgrade bid to JCI in the amount of $412,207.46; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The meeting record states the award passed unanimously. Council also asked that the project team document project challenges and remediation steps at completion to inform future procurement decisions.
The city will proceed with contracting steps and scheduled work; staff indicated they will provide ongoing project updates and that the filter media replacement and other water‑system work are progressing in parallel.
