Summary

A town presenter said Allison Construction completed fencing and preparation work for the Krause Court project (phase 1) and that phase 2 (paving/finishing) will cost about $15,800; combined contract figures plus other needs leave an estimated $34,000 funding gap to finish the project.

Town staff briefed the council on progress at the Krause Court project and contract and funding status. A presenter said Allison Construction completed the project's first phase (fencing and site prep) under a signed contract and that the town had not yet received a finalized contract copy from the contractor for payment processing.

The presenter identified phase-1 contract work at $18,350 and described phase 2 (finishing the course and related services) at $15,800. He said the town had thought the total would be $31,700 but that the final cost would be 'just around $34,000' to complete the second phase and additional retaining-wall or concrete-barrier work.

Funding identified in the presentation included a $10,000 town investment, $10,000 in grant money from 'TBA' and other countywide contributions; once all funds are collected the presenter estimated roughly $45,000 in the project account overall. The presenter said the contractor expects to finish phase 1 within the week and return in about one-and-a-half weeks to finish phase 2, pending receipt of the signed contract.

Council asked about contract paperwork and payment processes; staff said the signed contract was needed to proceed with payment and that they would get the contract and move payments forward.

No additional appropriations or formal budget votes to cover the remaining gap were recorded at the meeting; staff indicated they would process the contract and finalize payments once documentation was complete.
