Council approves $5,000 Mansfield quote to repair sinkhole and storm pipe in Municipal Lot #1
Summary
Council accepted a $5,000 quote from Mansfield to repair and reconnect storm pipes at a sinkhole in Municipal Lot #1; the minutes state the borough will provide pipe and fittings, listed at $5,000 in the record, pending no other problems.
Council reviewed two repair estimates for a sinkhole and storm-pipe work in Municipal Lot #1. McLallen Construction quoted $6,800; Mansfield quoted $5,000 to install and repair pipes. The minutes state the borough would provide pipe and fittings, recorded as a cost of $5,000. Streets Supervisor Bob Phillips said crews placed dye in a storm drain near Hogan's Alley and plan to run camera inspections to confirm connections to sanitary lines.
Councilor James Kerns moved to accept Mansfield's $5,000 quote to repair/replace/reconnect the pipe at the sinkhole in Municipal Lot #1, with the borough supplying pipe and fittings pending no additional problems; Councilor Steadman seconded the motion, which carried unanimously.
The minutes do not provide a detailed breakdown of the borough-provided pipe-and-fittings cost beyond the $5,000 figure listed; council directed staff to proceed with the work under the approved contract.
