Union City approves $22,295 repair to sinkhole and pipe at Municipal Lot #1
Summary
Council accepted engineering recommendations and selected Mansfield to replace about 10 feet of 24" clay tile, install a larger catch basin, and reconnect pipes at Municipal Lot #1 for $22,295; McLallen Construction provided a higher estimate of $23,450.
Streets Supervisor Bob Phillips presented engineering recommendations to address a sinkhole at Municipal Lot #1 that involves a failed 24-inch clay tile and disconnected pipes. Engineers recommended replacing approximately 10 feet of pipe, installing a larger catch basin next to the sinkhole and reconnecting the affected drains; the work may be staged in four lined sections.
Two contractor estimates were presented: Mansfield bid $22,295 and McLallen Construction bid $23,450; both required the borough to provide a truck during the project. Councilor Steadman moved to award the work to Mansfield for $22,295; Councilor Osborn seconded the motion, which carried unanimously among members present.
