Summary

The council approved partial pay application #5 to McCarthy Trenching for $564,371.25 toward the city's wastewater treatment project, a unanimous vote recorded in the Nov. 12 minutes.

The Underwood City Council voted 5-0 on Nov. 12 to approve partial pay application #5 to McCarthy Trenching in the amount of $564,371.25 for the wastewater treatment project.

JW Tiarks moved to approve the payment and Josh Madsen seconded; the motion passed without recorded opposition. The minutes list the pay application amount and the contractor name but do not include additional contract terms or retainage details in the public minutes.

Public works and the sewer committee reported ongoing construction activity elsewhere in the agenda: sludge removal from lagoon cells, additional bubblers added to a remaining cell to assist treatment, and electrical information returned by an electrical-engineer subcontractor so the contractor can order the remaining electrical supplies.

The minutes do not record a separate public comment on the pay application. The council approved the consent agenda and claims later in the meeting, which included scheduled claims and payroll totals.

The administration did not record an implementation timeline for the specific pay application in the minutes; project oversight items are referenced in committee notes.
