Spring City weighs options for remaining water and sewer project contingency funds

Sunrise Engineering representatives told the Spring City Council on April 22 that the 700 East water line and chlorine building are complete except for punch-list items and that roughly $450,000 remains available to allocate toward additional water system work. Jason Brimhall, a Sunrise Engineering project representative, said, "approximately $450,000 of project funding remains available" and outlined several possible uses for those funds: replacing 24 nonfunctional fire hydrants (estimated $12,000–$14,000 each), constructing a 12-inch high-pressure zone line to serve future development east of town (estimated $212,000), adding gravel to 800 East to improve road conditions (about $9,000), or installing a chlorine residual analyzer in the lower tank chlorine building (estimated $25,000–$30,000).
