Council told awarded contract has not started; pre-construction meeting expected
Summary
A councilmember asked whether work under a contract awarded a few weeks ago has started; the councilmember leading the meeting said work had not started but was scheduled and that a pre-construction meeting would occur soon.
During the same council meeting, a councilmember asked about the status of a contract the council had awarded a few weeks earlier. The asking member said the contract had been awarded and inquired whether work had begun.
"They have not started yet, but work is is scheduled to start," the councilmember providing the update said, and noted that a pre-construction (pre-bid) meeting was expected imminently. The meeting transcript also included a comment that "once that once we are at that output, it would be green light," indicating the council expects certain pre-construction steps to precede on-site work.
The transcript uses the phrase 'the trains' in reference to the contract, and contains a brief, unclear exchange referencing 'Albian, Walmart' that was not clarified in the meeting. The contractor name, exact start date and other contract details were not specified in the recorded discussion; councilmembers asked staff to follow up and provide additional information.
