Board temporarily tables $4.42 million lead service line replacement bid
Summary
The Village of Midlothian board approved the consent agenda but removed a $4,417,815 bid award to Step Brothers Excavating and then voted to temporarily table the contract for the lead water service line replacement program.
The Village of Midlothian board on April 23 approved most items on its consent agenda but removed and then temporarily tabled a recommended $4,417,815 contract award to Step Brothers Excavating for the village's lead water service line replacement program.
Clerical materials listed the proposed award as consent item 3: "award to Step Brothers Excavating from a lead water service line replacement program year two in the amount of 4,417,815." A trustee moved to approve the consent agenda without item 3; that motion passed by roll call. The board then considered the separate motion to award the contract but amended the motion and voted to table the bid "temporarily," with the clerk conducting a roll call vote and the chair announcing the motion carried.
The transcript does not record additional technical details of the procurement (for example, bid evaluation criteria, number of bidders or the anticipated project timeline). The board did not finalize the contract award; the item remains tabled and could return for further discussion at a later meeting.
The meeting proceeded to other business and then adjourned into closed session on pending litigation.
