Council approves multiple infrastructure contracts and solicitations for sewer, water and lift-station work
Summary
Council authorized the 2026 sewer line rehabilitation contract, replacement of media and iron filters at Rip Rap Road water treatment plant, and solicitation for the Brant Pike sanitary lift station; staff described these as ongoing infrastructure projects and each measure passed unanimously.
Council authorized a set of infrastructure actions at the April 13 meeting: a resolution to enter into a contract for the 2026 sewer rehabilitation project, a resolution to replace media cell B and five iron filters at the Rip Rap Road water treatment plant (final phase of the softening project), and a resolution to solicit bids for the Brant Pike sanitary lift station project that will combine two older lift stations into one near the Walmart on Brant Pike.
City staff described these items as continuing multi-year capital programs: "This is just our 2026 sewer line project," the manager said, and staff said the water-filter replacement "should be that final phase to get us back to where we need to be." For the Brant Pike lift station, staff noted the consolidation of two older lift stations into one larger facility. Council adopted the respective resolutions by unanimous votes; the meeting record shows roll-call approvals for each item.
No detailed contract amounts or bid schedules were read into the meeting minutes; staff indicated more detailed procurement and contracting information would be handled through the city manager and public-works procurement processes.
