Veneta Utilities Authority approves $31,500 engineering invoice for filter rehabilitation
Summary
The Veneta Utilities Authority voted to pay $31,500 to Infrastructure Solutions Group LLC for engineering design of water‑treatment plant filter rehabilitation; staff said bids are due July 12 and the engineering covers the remaining filters (or 'trains').
The Veneta Utilities Authority approved payment of invoice VIN‑20 for $31,500 to Infrastructure Solutions Group LLC to cover engineering fees for a water‑treatment plant filter rehabilitation project, the board voted July 7.
Board members said the engineering invoice steps the project forward toward construction. “This is our engineering fee for this project we have going on… the bids have been submitted out for publication, and we should receive those back to ISG on July 12,” said the board member who introduced the item.
Staff and board members described the plant’s filters as multiple “trains,” noting one or more had been out of service and that earlier delays (including litigation) slowed progress. The engineering work on the $31,500 invoice is intended to cover the design for the remaining filters so the board can evaluate bids and a total construction cost before committing to how many filters will be refurbished immediately.
The motion to pay the invoice was moved and seconded and passed by voice vote with no members recorded as opposed. The board did not provide a roll‑call tally in the meeting minutes. No implementation timeline beyond the July 12 bid review was provided.
The VUA meeting adjourned and the council convened immediately afterward.
