Engineer: booster‑pump design and contractor procurement expected to start construction in 6–8 weeks
Summary
An engineer told the council a booster‑pump design and contractor procurement package is estimated to take 6–8 weeks before construction begins; the engineer said the work would be covered by grant funds and the council will be asked to approve an assignment order and contract signature to begin design.
An engineering presenter summarized a booster‑pump proposal that covers design, contractor procurement assistance and construction administration services and said the schedule from design through procurement should allow construction to begin in roughly 6–8 weeks if approvals proceed and bidding goes smoothly. "So the design as well as the contractor procurement, we're estimating probably anywhere from 6 to 8 weeks," the presenter said, adding the team will compile bids and provide a recommendation for the council to select a contractor.
The presenter noted the fees are consistent with grant funding and that the city will receive an assignment order and contract to sign if the council approves the package at a formal meeting. Councilmembers asked for clarification on funding paperwork and timeline once again but did not take a vote during the work meeting.
