Laurens council approves demolition steps for old swimming pool, pending attorney review
Summary
Council members approved specifications, a contract and a public-notice process to demolish the old municipal swimming pool; each approval was recorded as pending attorney review and all motions passed unanimously.
The Laurens City Council on Aug. 4 approved a package of actions to remove the old municipal swimming pool, with council members noting that approvals were subject to attorney review.
Council member John Jamison moved to approve specifications for demolition of the old swimming pool, with Aaron Christenson seconding; Council member Booth moved to approve the demolition contract, seconded by Jean Swanson. Jamison later moved to approve a public notice accepting competitive quotes for the demolition; Booth seconded. Each motion passed on a unanimous voice vote and the minutes record each approval as pending attorney review where specified.
The meeting record does not include contract dollar amounts, a demolition timeline or the selected contractor; the contract approval was recorded but noted as pending attorney review. The council also approved the public notice to solicit competitive quotes, which begins the procurement process.
Next procedural steps in the record are attorney review and the competitive-quote process; the minutes do not list a schedule for demolition or an awarded contractor.
