Algonac council approves sewer rehabilitation pay estimate, lift-station pump replacement and kiosks
Summary
Council approved a sewer rehabilitation pay application, authorized replacement of an aging lift-station pump, approved Bridge to Bay kiosks funded in part by an RC Wilson Jr. Foundation grant, and approved accounts payable totaling the packet amount.
Algonac city council approved several infrastructure and maintenance items on the consent agenda and during deliberation.
Council approved Pay Application No. 2 for the 2024 sewer rehabilitation program to Inline Solutions for work consisting of cured-in-place pipelining and joint grouting; the work was prioritized after inspections funded in part by a SAW grant. Mrs. Christoper presented the pay application and confirmed the billing period covered April–October 2024.
Council also considered quotes for repair versus replacement of a roughly 15-year-old DPW lift-station pump. Administration recommended replacement rather than repair, citing longer expected life; council approved replacement with the vendor Electric Motor Services. The transcript includes repair and replacement quotes but the oral record contains transcription artifacts; the packet contains the exact quoted amounts.
The council approved purchase and installation of Bridge to Bay Trail kiosks and wayfinding panels; the project is largely funded by a grant from the RC Wilson Jr. Foundation and includes a city share. Kiosks have been delivered to DPW and are scheduled for spring installation.
Finally, council approved accounts payable and payroll as presented in the packet (packet amount recorded as $361,662). Councilmembers made several community announcements and closed the meeting.
