Summary
The Underwood City Council approved Partial Pay Application #10 to McCarthy Trenching for $409,906.60 for the wastewater treatment project and voted to table Change Order #2 (electrical) to the next regular meeting.
The Underwood City Council approved Partial Pay Application #10 to McCarthy Trenching for the city’s wastewater treatment project, authorizing a payment of $409,906.60. The motion to approve the pay application was moved by Jim Pingel, seconded by Jodi Bose, and carried on a 5-0 vote.
Council also addressed pending contract changes for the wastewater project. Members moved to table Change Order #2, covering electrical work, to the next regular meeting for additional review. Jim Pingel moved to table the change order and Kelle Erwin seconded; the motion passed 5-0.
The sewer committee had met April 6 to discuss Change Order #1 and asked staff for further details; council members emphasized the need for clearer cost breakdowns before taking additional action. The council’s approval of the partial pay application releases the contractor payment while the electrical change order remains under review.
Next steps: the electrical Change Order #2 will return to a future agenda with requested clarifications from staff and the sewer committee.
