Summary

At a Sept. 18 special called meeting, the Demorest City Council accepted a $7,677.79 bid from Koraleen Enterprises to install 17 additional microbiological sampling stations required by the Georgia EPD; the motion passed unanimously (4-0).

Demorest City Council voted Sept. 18 to accept a $7,677.79 bid from Koraleen Enterprises to add 17 microbiological sampling stations across the city’s water distribution system.

EMI representative Mr. Holliday told council members that “EPD requires a certain number of microbiological sampling stations based on the service population,” and said the system needs 17 additional sampling points. Two bids were on the table: Consolidated Pipe for $14,875 and Koraleen Enterprises for $7,677.79. City Manager Mark Musselwhite recommended the lower bid.

Councilman Andrew Ferguson moved to proceed with the Koraleen Enterprises bid; Councilman Shawn Allen seconded. The motion passed unanimously, recorded as 4-0.

The action authorizes staff to move forward with procurement and installation under the accepted bid. The meeting record does not specify an installation timetable or funding source; those details were not provided during the public discussion.

The council held an executive session later in the meeting on personnel, real estate and potential litigation and reconvened before adjourning.
