Gadsden Council approves resurfacing, energy-efficiency, sidewalk engineering and utility relocation agreements
Summary
The council awarded a resurfacing bid for Payton and Table roads to Alabama Grading & Excavation LLC, approved an energy-efficiency contract with Path Company LLC for $46,000, authorized a $2,100 supplemental engineering agreement with Three Notch Group for Chestnut Street sidewalk work (ADOT 80/20 match), and approved a reimbursable agreement with Gadsden Waterworks for Randall Street utility relocation.
At the June 8 meeting the Gadsden City Council approved several contracts and agreements covering paving, energy efficiency, sidewalk engineering and utility relocation.
Councilwoman Laam presented and the council adopted a resolution awarding bid #3645 for resurfacing Payton Road and Table Road to Alabama Grading & Excavation LLC. The council voted to suspend the rules to consider the bid as new business and then adopted the award by voice vote.
The council also authorized an agreement with Path Company LLC to develop an energy-efficiency performance contract under Code of Alabama §41-16 (Article 7, guaranteed energy cost savings) in the amount of $46,000. Council discussion referenced the statutory authority for guaranteed energy savings contracts during the motion and voice vote to adopt.
Separately, the council approved a $2,100 supplemental agreement with Three Notch Group Inc. for required electrical engineering services on the Chestnut Street sidewalk improvement project (Sixth to Fifth Street). The sidewalk project is an ADOT grant with an 80/20 match.
Finally, council adopted a reimbursable agreement with Gadsden Waterworks and Sewer Board to relocate utility facilities in the public right-of-way for resurfacing Randall Street (Harelson Avenue to South 6th Street). All measures were adopted by voice vote; the transcript records motions carried but does not list individual roll-call tallies.
What happens next: City engineering and procurement staff will manage contract execution, confirm matching grant requirements for the sidewalk project, and coordinate utility relocation with Gadsden Waterworks to allow paving to proceed.
