The Beardstown City Council on July 16 voted unanimously to award a paving contract and approve Motor Fuel Tax funding for the 15th Street/Sangamon Street project.
A motion by Chris Baer, seconded by Keith Schramm, approved the bid from Illinois Valley Paving, a division of UCM, Inc., in the amount of $157,736.59 for the 15th Street/Sangamon Street project. The motion passed by a 7–0 roll call vote with Alderperson Shawn Taylor absent.
