Canby council approves $3.48 million South Walnut Street extension contract
Summary
The council adopted Ordinance 1662 authorizing an interim city administrator to execute a $3,479,492 contract with CAMI Excavating Inc. for the South Walnut Street extension and declared an emergency so work can start under an accelerated schedule; the vote was 5-0.
Canby City Council on the night adopted Ordinance 1662, approving a $3,479,492 contract with CAMI Excavating Incorporated to construct the South Walnut Street extension and declaring an emergency so work can begin promptly.
Public works staffer Spencer walked the council through a map and a signalized‑intersection layout for the project, noting the contractor has a preconstruction meeting scheduled and that some tree clearing and preparation could start within weeks after permits are finalized with ODOT.
Councilor Patton made the motion to adopt the ordinance and Councilor Davis seconded. The council approved the measure by roll call 5‑0.
Spencer said the contractor will begin preparatory work and that staff are still finalizing permit details with the Oregon Department of Transportation. The emergency clause and the contract approval will allow the city to schedule preconstruction and mobilization more quickly.
Next steps: staff will work with the contractor and ODOT to finalize permits and preconstruction scheduling; the council did not change the contract amount on the floor.
