Key approvals and votes
- Task Order 2026-01 (stormwater inventory): Board approved the BFNS task order to inventory stormwater assets and complete Phase 1 work; motion carried by voice vote.
- 38th Place (Phase 1–2) and County Line culvert: The board approved issuing bid documents for Phase 1–2 of the 38th Place / Fillmore improvements and reissued bid documents for the County Line culvert to run concurrently. Staff outlined an estimated Phase 1–2 cost of about $5.3 million (with a 15% contingency) and provided a schedule for advertisement and bid opening.
- Booster pump (lift station sampler): Board approved purchase of a sampler/booster pump quoted at $3,781 contingent on confirmation of a warranty period.
- Force-main flushing program (Poshgen Electric): Board approved a one-time programming/automation solution (quote referenced in packet at $13,680) to enable scheduled flushing of a 30-inch force main; staff described this as a one-time fee to allow internal control of flushing schedules.

- Contract approvals: The board approved a maintenance contract with Davie Resources for 2026 services at HST-managed sites and approved a contract with Aircom for asbestos abatement at the wastewater treatment plant and base shop.
- Task Order #12 (septic system elimination cost evaluation): Board approved a task order to study costs and develop an application process to support septic elimination; transcript-listed maximum amount was unclear in the packet and should be confirmed in the official minutes.
- Financial claims: SRF claims presented totaled $251,269 (packet itemized $38,060 for invoices and $213,209 for bond/debt service); the board approved payment. Stormwater disbursement #62 ($10,000 to Highway North Engineering) and regular claims for March ($261,033.40) were approved.
Several motions included named movers and seconders in the record (motions commonly moved by Mister Gutierrez with seconds by Mister Broadway). Where dollar amounts or numeric totals in the transcript were unclear or garbled, the article reports that those items should be verified against official board documents.
