Council approves routine street/sewer work and small purchases, seeks estimates for pavilion repairs
Summary
Council authorized camera inspection of sewer lines, approved a small purchase for a wastewater-plant washer/dryer (up to $1,500), accepted a contractor bid discussion for a sewer/line repair (amount unclear in transcript) and asked staff to pursue Legion Pavilion repairs with estimates up to $10,000.
Council members discussed a set of public-works items including sewer-line televising, localized pipe/root failures and planned seal-coating. The council agreed to have MRWA camera First Street from Aspen to the old tile plant to check for leaks and to pursue targeted repairs on a section of line that runs from Birch toward the wastewater treatment area.
Council approved a small equipment purchase—up to $1,500—for a washer/dryer combo for the wastewater plant. Separately, council members moved to accept a contractor bid for a sewer/line repair discussed during the meeting; the transcript records the motion as "accept the bid" and shows the motion carried by voice vote, but the amount was not clearly recorded in the transcript and is therefore not specified here.
Council also discussed repairs to the Legion Pavilion (roof and structural items) and directed staff to collect estimates; members indicated they would be comfortable funding repairs up to $10,000 to make the pavilion usable. Pearson is expected to return to town for seal coating on several streets, and staff said some problematic linear footage may be budgeted in next year's capital plan if a larger rehabilitation is required.
