Jacksonville council approves multiple water and wastewater contracts, lead service replacements and pay estimates
Summary
By unanimous consent the council approved resolutions awarding bids, authorizing change orders and accepting pay estimates for multiple water and wastewater projects including lead service line replacement phase one and water main replacement work.
The Jacksonville City Council approved a multi‑item consent agenda that included resolutions to fund capital projects and award contracts related to the city’s water and wastewater infrastructure.
Key items approved on the consent agenda included: waiving advertisement and accepting a proposal from G Irrigation Company for a well field test hole and test wells; authorizing change order No. 1 with Hood Construction Group Midwest LLC for water main replacements on Myrtle Street and East Lafayette to East Independence Avenue; awarding a bid to MB Construction LLC for lead service line replacement phase one; authorizing additional change orders and final pay estimates for wastewater treatment plant phase one improvements; and approving multiple partial and final pay estimates with Hood Construction and Clocker Construction Company for respective water and wastewater contracts.
Most items were procedural approvals of contracting actions and payment estimates; Alderman Speed pulled one item under public protection for separate consideration before the roll call. The clerk called roll on the consent agenda and all members voted yes. The resolutions direct staff to proceed with procurement and payments under the city’s capital improvement and utility project controls.
