Florence board authorizes design work on Hwy. 49 sewer project
Summary
The board unanimously authorized City Engineer Tim Parker and Engineering Service to begin design work on the Hwy. 49 (North) sewer project; the authorization appears twice in the minutes as separate motions but both carried unanimously.
The Florence Board of Mayor and Aldermen voted unanimously on Sept. 2 to authorize design work on the Hwy. 49 sewer project and on the closely related Hwy. 49 North sewer project.
A motion by Alderman John Banks, seconded by Alderman Brent Sistrunk, directed City Engineer Tim Parker to begin the design phase for the project. Later in the meeting, upon Mayor Trey Gunn's recommendation, the board separately authorized Engineering Service to begin the design phase for the Hwy. 49 North sewer project; that motion also passed unanimously.
The minutes record two related authorizations rather than a single consolidated action; neither motion included estimated project cost or a firm timeline in the minutes. The board's direction places the city into the design phase, which typically precedes permitting, bidding and construction approvals.
City Engineer Tim Parker is the staff contact identified in the minutes for the design work. The board carried both motions by unanimous vote and did not attach funding details in the recorded motions.
