Summary

Council approved the construction agreement with Musson Brothers for sanitary sewer lining, contingent on receiving a written justification of award from the city attorney and DNR approval tied to SRF funding requirements.

Council voted to approve signing the construction agreement with Musson Brothers for the sanitary sewer collection system lining project but made the approval contingent on two conditions: a documented justification of award from the city attorney and formal review/approval by the South Dakota Department of Natural Resources because the project uses SRF funding. Staff explained that awarding to the second-low bidder required a written justification for DNR review.

A council member moved the contingent approval and the motion passed unanimously. Staff said the contingency is intended to avoid committing city funds until DNR has reviewed the justification letter and confirmed SRF compliance; the notice to proceed will be held until those conditions are satisfied.
