Board of Public Works keeps leadership, approves payments and awards Alley 92 contract
Summary
At its May 8 meeting the Waukesha City Board of Public Works re-approved its chair and co-chair, approved routine minutes and six payments (including discussion of Musson Brothers retainage/penalties), and awarded a $359,730.70 contract for Alley 92 to the low bidder.
The Waukesha City Board of Public Works on May 8 re-approved its current leadership, approved routine minutes and payments, and awarded a contract for Alley Number 92.
The board voted to "remain the same, myself as chair, and Chad as co chair," a motion that was seconded and approved by voice vote. Members also approved the April 17 meeting minutes following a motion, second and an affirmative voice vote.
On Item 5a, staff presented six payment applications for approval. The board approved the payments after a member raised questions about amounts to Musson Brothers for work on Magnolia and Hein and whether those checks covered work deferred from last year or work completed in 2025. City staff said the pay application includes quantities for work completed in 2025 and confirmed that any liquidated-damage penalties assessed for last-year delays will be deducted from retainage at final payment. The motion to approve payments passed by voice vote.
Under Item 6A, staff said bids were received for Alley Number 92 (the area south of Madison Street) and recommended proceeding with the low bid from Wandel Contractors in the amount of $359,730.70. The board approved awarding the contract to Wandel by voice vote.
No public comment was offered at the start of the meeting. Staff also listed notices for a rebid of the Les Paul Performance Center work and projects at Sunset Drive and the Deer Trails/Fox Lake Village pump station.
Next steps: staff will prepare the final payment documents (including retained amounts and any liquidated-damage deductions) and proceed with contract award steps for Alley 92 per procurement rules.
