Exeter Council Authorizes Well 12 Rehabilitation, Approves Sole-Source Procurement
Summary
The Exeter City Council voted 5-0 to authorize the Well 12 rehabilitation project, including pump and motor replacement, and approved a sole-source procurement through Kaweah Pump. No public comment was received on the item.
The Exeter City Council voted unanimously on May 12 to authorize staff to proceed with the Well 12 Rehabilitation Project, including replacement of the pump and motor, and approved a sole-source procurement through Kaweah Pump.
Public Works Director Zachary Boudreaux presented the project to the Council and recommended Kaweah Pump as the sole-source provider. Mayor Jacob Johnson opened the item for public comment; none was offered. The motion to proceed carried 5-0.
The project is intended to restore and maintain the city well’s operational reliability; the staff report contained technical and procurement recommendations but did not specify a total project cost in the meeting record. The Council’s authorization includes allowing staff to pursue a sole-source purchase from Kaweah Pump rather than competitive bidding.
Council members did not request additional public hearings before approving the authorization. No dissenting votes or abstentions were recorded. The Council’s action directs staff to return with any contract documents or further procurement steps as required by city policy.
