The DeRidder City Council on March 10 voted to adopt a resolution authorizing the mayor to advertise for sealed bids to replace a force main at the Highway 27 Pala Creek crossing, in concurrence with a Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (city project 92397 DA).
Clerk read the resolution’s purpose and specifications, which direct that sealed bids be received at City Hall and publicly opened and read. After a call for public comment produced none, the council took a roll-call vote. Councilman Marcel, Councilman Hooper, Councilman Hyde, Councilwoman Woods, Councilman Reynolds and Council President C recorded votes in favor and the resolution was adopted.
The measure instructs the city to solicit sealed bids for the replacement work; bids will be opened publicly at City Hall per the resolution’s terms. No mover or seconder was recorded in the transcript audio; the clerk called the vote and the resolution passed.
Next steps in the procurement process (advertisement dates, bid submission deadlines and contract award timeline) were not specified in the transcript and will be set by city purchasing and the mayor’s office.
