Council approves $106,685 in water-related expenditures, awards bids for clearwell work and pump repair
Summary
The Thomaston City Council reallocated funds and awarded a $34,185 contract for clean clearwell work to US Underwater, LLC and authorized $72,500 in sales-tax-funded repairs to a drinking water pump to Pump and Process; both actions passed unanimously.
Thomaston’s City Council approved two water-system expenditures Wednesday, awarding bids and reallocating funds to complete clearwell work and to repair a drinking water pump.
Councilmember Troy Chaney moved and Councilmember Jeff Middlebrooks seconded approval of a budget amendment that reallocated funds and awarded the clearwell contract to US Underwater, LLC in the amount of $34,185; the council approved the measure unanimously.
Separately, Councilmember Lakeitha Reeves moved and Councilmember Jerry Adams seconded authorization of $72,500 from sales tax funding to repair a drinking water pump, awarding the work to Pump and Process to repair the soft start and control panel; that motion also passed unanimously.
City staff identified the clearwell work and pump repair as needed maintenance to preserve drinking-water operations. The council’s votes reallocate city resources to permit the vendor work to proceed; staff will issue purchase orders and schedule the repairs.
Next steps: contracts will be executed with the awarded vendors and staff will report back on scheduling and completion; funding source for the pump repair was identified as sales tax funding.
