Council approves consent agenda including wastewater plant repairs and $44,400 budget amendment
Summary
Council approved the consent agenda that included two wastewater treatment plant contracts: a polymer pump skid and tank replacement ($159,790) to Kemp Construction and removal/disposal of up to 120,000 gallons of solids ($129,450) to Stat Incorporated. Council also approved a $44,400 budget amendment to accept reimbursements for special events.
At the May 4 meeting, Morganton’s council approved a consent agenda that included minutes from prior meetings, two wastewater treatment plant contract awards and a $44,400 budget amendment to accept reimbursements tied to special events.
Staff said the wastewater contracts were within the adopted budget: a contract to Kemp Construction for replacement of a polymer pump skid and tank not to exceed $159,790, and a contract to Stat Incorporated for removal and disposal of up to 120,000 gallons of solids in the amount of $129,450; staff also established a staff‑managed contingency at unit price if additional solids are found.
Why it matters: The contracts are part of routine maintenance and capital work at the wastewater treatment facility; the budget amendment covers reimbursements for community house events and related supplies.
The council moved and seconded the consent agenda and approved it by voice vote with the recorded response "Aye."
