Summary

Council approved buying a replacement hydrant (Core & Main) for $7,238.91 following damage by a semi; staff said the city will purchase now and expect insurance reimbursement.

Public Works brought a quote to replace a hydrant that had been knocked out by a semi in the summer along Highway 12. The quoted purchase price for the hydrant from Core & Main was $7,238.91; staff told council the city would pay up front and expected reimbursement from the responsible party's insurance.

A councilor moved to approve the purchase; the motion was seconded and the council approved the purchase unanimously (5-0). Staff noted the quoted price did not include excavation and installation costs, which will be additional and likely reimbursed separately by the insurer.
