City reports water‑project progress; 60% complete and meter installs under way
Summary
Public works reported the water‑system project is about 60% complete as of end of June, with roughly 300 meters installed (about 140 swapped into the city system), a booster/transmission station at substantial completion and a punch list in progress.
Aaron Castro (Speaker 10) gave the council a construction update on the city’s water project, saying “Project right now, actually, as of the end of June, it's at 60%, complete” and that crews continue to install service meters and feeders. He said about 300 meters had been installed, of which roughly 140 were existing meters replaced and about 150 were newly installed but not all yet online.
Castro reported a transmission/booster station portion of the project reached a substantial‑completion milestone and the city and contractor have a preliminary punch list to resolve before final acceptance. He said the meter for the POA’s fill station has been ordered and that field crews are progressing on feeder lines; no major change orders or contract delays were reported at the meeting. Council members then discussed meter hookups, inspection procedures and spare‑parts lists.
