Council awards Route 88/King School Road improvement contract; utility relocation payment ratified
Summary
Council awarded a $289,480 contract to A. Filino Construction for the Route 88/King School Road improvement tied to an elementary school project and ratified a $20,109.11 payment to West Penn Power for a utility-pole relocation; both votes were unanimous.
Council awarded the Route 88 and King School Road improvement project contract to A. Filino Construction Inc. for $289,480 from capital budget line 06-433-733-2502, citing the project's connection to the new Bethel Park elementary center and noting grant funding will offset costs. Councilmember Oakes explained the work will enlarge and expand the intersection to serve the school project.
"This is to enlarge and expand the intersection for the new elementary center," Oakes said, and council member Jenkins added the project is being funded in part by two grants.
The council then ratified a payment of $20,109.11 to West Penn Power from the same capital line item for the relocation of one utility pole required by the project. Both motions passed by unanimous roll-call votes (8–0).
Council members said they were coordinating with the local school district on project timing. No contested bids or protests were recorded in the meeting transcript.
Next steps: With contract award and the utility payment ratified, staff will proceed with the construction schedule and coordinate grant disbursements and school-district needs as the project moves forward.
