Topeka council approves $311,367.55 pay application for Michigan and Babcock street work
Summary
The Topeka Town Council unanimously approved Pay Application #1 to API for Michigan & Babcock Streets, disbursing $311,367.55 as part of the CCMG project and moving the public‑works contract forward.
The Topeka Town Council on July 8 unanimously approved Pay Application #1 to API for work on Michigan and Babcock Streets, authorizing payment of $311,367.55 as part of the town’s CCMG (Community Crossings Matching Grant) project.
Council members cast a unanimous vote to release the payment after staff presented the invoice; Ray Folk moved the motion and Steve Schrock seconded. Town staff described the pay application as the first progress payment tied to the contractor’s completed work to date.
The payment covers construction activity included in the two‑street package; council did not record any conditions attached to the disbursement. The approval moves the project into its next phase of work under the existing contract with API.
Council members said routine project oversight and invoicing procedures will continue, and staff will report back on subsequent pay applications. The council did not set a separate follow‑up date for this item beyond routine project updates.
