Council approves consent agenda item C after discussion about engineering contracts
Summary
Council removed consent item C for discussion, clarified the contracts are for engineering/design (phase 3 underground utility work) funded by grants with some local share, and then approved item C by voice vote after a motion and second.
Council removed consent item C for discussion after Councilmember Herndon requested more detail about the proposals and asked whether alternative construction approaches (such as brick pavers rather than asphalt) were included. Herndon said he wanted the full proposals circulated so councilors could "actually read them instead of just reading the numbers."
Staff clarified these were engineering contracts for design only — not construction — intended to continue underground utility replacement into phase 3; staff said the design work is funded by grants with some local share. After a motion and second to approve item C, Mayor Naines called the question and the item passed by voice vote.
