Council approves Main Street pay request, tables sidewalk replacements after step proposal fails
Summary
The Kimball City Council approved Main Street Pay Request #2 and asked Banner & Associates for a price on step replacements after rejecting an immediate step-replacement motion; sidewalk replacements were tabled while warranty and criteria are reviewed.
The Kimball City Council approved Main Street Pay Request #2 on July 7, 2026, by unanimous roll call after amending the agenda to move the item earlier in the meeting. The approval followed staff updates on project billing and contract progress; no dissenting votes were recorded on the pay request.
Prior to that approval, a motion to replace steps in the 300 block that would be removed as part of the Main Street project failed on a 0-6 roll call. After that failure, the council approved a separate motion authorizing Banner & Associates to prepare a price to replace steps between Third and Broad on the east side, signaling the council wanted firm cost information before taking further action. The council then voted to table Main Street sidewalks pending additional discussion of possible warranty agreements and criteria for replacement.
The meeting also set a public hearing on CDBG funding for the Kimball Main Street project for August 10, 2026, at 8:00 p.m., keeping public-review timelines in step with project billing and contracting.
