Summary

After opening competitive bids, the council authorized awarding the new water tower contract to Maguire Iron (low bid) subject to USDA concurrence; foundation work and steel fabrication began later in the year.

La Cygne’s council opened bids for the new water tower in July and accepted the low responsible bid for the 100,000‑gallon Pedosphere option. BG Consultants recommended awarding the project to Maguire Iron and the council approved a resolution to proceed, contingent on USDA concurrence and final bonding paperwork. "Maguire's bid was the lowest and meets the project specifications," BG's representative said at the July bid opening.

Following award, the council approved the contractor’s initial pay requests to allow foundation work and steel fabrication to proceed. By December the foundation had been poured and Maguire had begun steel fabrication, advancing the schedule toward a target completion in 2018.
