Summary

Public works supervisor reported the Madison Street project is on schedule but needs a 15-day extension due to a replaced water pipe; separate vehicle damage to a fence/barrier on Highway 101 has been reported to insurance and cost estimates are pending.

The city's public works supervisor (speaker 8) told the council that the Madison Street project is progressing on task but requires a 15-day extension after a water pipe was found and replaced. "That project on Madison's going well. It's on task. There is an extension of 15 days due to some [water] pipe I had to replace," the supervisor said.

The supervisor also reported barrier/fence damage along Highway 101 caused by a vehicle; insurance has been notified and staff are obtaining contractor cost estimates. He said two abatement/repair contractors have assessed the library-related work and the city is waiting on a second contractor's bid to finalize insurance submission. Council discussed whether outside legal intervention would aid the process; the chair said the insurance process was the appropriate route at present.
