Summary
Stephens City council unanimously appointed Peed & Bortz LLC as town engineer through August 2020 and approved funds for an inflow-and-infiltration study and digitization of utility maps by iamGIS; council also adopted a resolution honoring Police Chief Charles Bockey Jr. and proclaimed Sherando Warrior Pride Week.
Stephens City’s Town Council on Sept. 3 voted to appoint Peed & Bortz LLC as the town engineer through August 2020 and to appropriate funds for an inflow-and-infiltration study and for digitizing the town’s utility maps.
The council approved the appointment and the funding motions with Aye votes from Councilors Bowers, Happek, Hollis, Vice Mayor Jason Nauman and Councilwoman Regina Swygert-Smith; Councilman Linden A. Fravel Jr. was absent. Councilman Joseph Hollis made the motion to appoint Peed & Bortz; the minutes do not record a second. The minutes state the appropriation is intended to cover the “expected cost” of the study by Peed & Bortz and the mapping work to be performed by iamGIS; no dollar amounts were specified in the minutes.
The funding motion was presented as an allocation of town funds to pay for the inflow-and-infiltration study and for the digitization of utility maps. The council approved the motion on a recorded vote. The minutes list Peed & Bortz and iamGIS as the contractors involved; the motion did not include contract text or specified contract lengths in the minutes.
In the same action agenda the council adopted a resolution of recognition and appreciation for Police Chief Charles Bockey Jr.; Councilman Jason Nauman moved the resolution, which passed by roll call. The council also proclaimed Oct. 6–12 as Sherando Warrior Pride Week.
What comes next: the minutes do not record contract documents, dollar amounts or a schedule for when the study and mapping work will begin. Staff (Town Manager Mike Majher) is listed as present and is the staff contact; the council did not record any conditions or deadlines for vendor performance in the minutes.
