Summary

At a June 23 special meeting, the Early City Council unanimously approved a $17,323.54 contract with Schmitt Construction for a water supply piping connection and a $47,000 Geoprobe proposal with LRE Water and Plains Environmental Services for investigative work.

The Early City Council on June 23 approved two measures intended to advance water infrastructure work. Councilor Brian Pickhinke moved to accept Schmitt Construction’s bid of $17,323.54 for the Water Supply Piping Connection; Councilor Cory Tiefenthaler seconded the motion, and a roll-call vote was recorded with Pickhinke, Christine Madden, Tiefenthaler and Brandon Scadden voting aye.

The council then approved a Geoprobe proposal with LRE Water and Plains Environmental Services, INC, to perform geotechnical/environmental investigative work at a cost of $47,000.00. Councilor Brandon Scadden moved the measure, Councilor Tiefenthaler seconded, and the council approved the proposal by a show of hands (ayes: Pickhinke, Madden, Tiefenthaler, Scadden).

Together, the two approvals authorize both the physical piping work and investigative services described in the proposals. The motions were made and passed during a special meeting called by Mayor William Cougill that began at 6:00 PM and concluded with later business at 6:21 PM. The council member Tim Langner was absent.
