Council approves manhole-raising work; transcript shows conflicting cost figures
Summary
Council approved a proposal to uncover and raise manholes, but the transcript records inconsistent dollar amounts during the motion (Chair mentioned $4,041,800 while another council member said $41,800); the council approved the proposal by voice vote.
The council approved a proposal from contractor Kevin Sanford to uncover and raise manholes as part of the sanitary sewer improvement project.
The meeting record includes conflicting figures during the motion: the Chair read a figure aloud that sounded like "$4,041,800 dollars," while another council member moved to approve a quote "for uncovering and raising manholes for $41,800." The motion to approve was seconded and passed by voice vote. The transcript does not provide a formal written contract amount in the handout text read into the record, and council discussion did not resolve the numeric discrepancy on the floor.
Because the transcript records both figures, staff follow-up to confirm the formal contract amount in the written proposal and to post that figure to the public record was discussed as a next step.
