Staff: Trail construction documents 80% done; Stock Street waterline design near bid-ready
Summary
Staff member Christina reported trail construction documents are about 80% complete with a final route walk scheduled; Stock Street waterline documents are about 98% complete and are under final review by JPR, with a contracting approach under consideration to avoid a full public bid.
Staff member Christina (speaker 7) gave a two-part infrastructure update: the trail and the Stock Street waterline.
Christina said the trail’s construction documents are about 80% complete, that the design team will walk the final route to identify any unforeseen issues, and that the first phase will extend past the Lutheran School. For the Stock Street waterline project, Christina said the design documents are about 98% complete, JPR has reviewed and issued corrections, and the town is discussing whether to contract through a selected developer or proceed to bids to save money and time. She also said the town’s utility staff asked for JPR to provide contract supervision and acceptance services.
Why it matters: both projects are capital infrastructure that affect neighborhood access, utility reliability and future construction phasing; final procurement choices will determine whether work goes to competitive bid or a negotiated contract.
Next steps: the project team expects the final comments and procurement path decision by the end of the month; Christina asked for council guidance on contracting approach and requested authorization to move forward with inspections and acceptance services if needed.
