Improvement and Services Committee approves multiple Public Works contracts and payments
Summary
The Green Bay Improvement and Services Committee on July 15 approved the purchase of a mechanic service body and associated chassis, delegated award authority for a Maple Avenue reconstruction contract to staff, and approved sewer and pavement contracts and real-estate progress payments. All motions passed by voice vote.
The Green Bay Improvement and Services Committee on July 15 approved several Public Works purchases and contract awards, including a mechanic-service body through a Sourcewell contract and a $1.35 million citywide sewer repairs contract.
The committee voted to approve two linked purchases for a single service trucka0— a Monroe Truck Equipment RM-45 master mechanic package service body procured through Sourcewell contract number 062220AEBDash1 for $108,270, plus the cabin chassis for the vehicle. "So it's all for one truck essentially...this is for our mechanics," the Public Works Director said, noting the purchases had been budgeted in the capital equipment plan. The committee moved to take items 1 and 2 up together and approved them by voice vote.
Members also approved delegating authority to staff to award the North Maple Avenue reconstruction contract (West Walnut to Mather) because the bid opening is scheduled for July 28 and late-season timing could delay construction. The director told the committee that utilities work may proceed this year with permanent pavement scheduled for a following year, and that the next committee meeting creates a long gap after the bid opening. A motion to allow staff-level award passed by voice vote.
The committee granted sidewalk-builder licenses to AA Flatwork LLC, Kurowski Construction, and ECS Concrete Construction LLC and approved progress payments tied to the Mather Street reconstruction project; staff said this payment batch covered roughly a dozen additional property transactions toward an estimated total of about 59 properties, most of which were temporary limited easements for grading, with two fee purchases included.
On the annual sewer repairs program, Public Works recommended awarding the Citywide Sewer Repairs contract to De Groot Inc. in the amount of $1,350,216.44. "This is our annual project for sewer repairs," the director said, describing televising, cleaning, and prioritized repairs across the system; the committee approved the award by voice vote.
Staff also reported that the Oxford Avenue and Reed Street reconstruction contract was awarded to Peters Concrete Company for $1,193,813.10; staff noted only one bid was received but that it was close to the engineer's estimate.
All committee motions and approvals on July 15 were taken by voice vote; the meeting record shows affirmative "aye" responses but does not list individual roll-call vote tallies.
The committees approvals will be forwarded to the full Common Council agenda for the following Tuesday. The next Improvement and Services Committee meeting is scheduled for Aug. 12.
