Summary

Scott said four consultants submitted proposals for the city water project and recommended forming a small committee to interview them. Council members volunteered to serve and Scott will schedule interviews and return with engineering details.

City Administrator Scott reported that four consultants submitted proposals for the city's water-project contract and recommended beginning interviews so the council can select a firm to proceed with design and implementation.

Scott said consulting firms were monitoring council meetings and that at least one consultant was present at the meeting. Council members discussed whether to form a small interview panel rather than involve the full council; several members volunteered. Scott said he would schedule dates and distribute materials so the panel could interview finalists and recommend a consultant to the full council.

Scott also tied the consultant selection to a request for more detailed water-model engineering related to the Stone Ridge proposal and said the model results will be a critical input before any final decisions about development or looping projects.
