Council approves award notice for Choctaw Avenue water improvements; single bidder recommended
Summary
Council authorized the mayor to sign a notice of award for Choctaw Avenue water system improvements (phase 1) to Long Hickory after staff reviewed the single bid; staff estimated a 60-day construction window once bonds, insurance and DWS approvals are in place.
Council considered approval of a notice of award for a DWSR project described in the packet: Choctaw Avenue water system improvements, phase 1. The mayor introduced the item and staff noted only one contractor obtained plans and submitted a bid; staff reviewed the submission and recommended awarding the project to Long Hickory (bidder), saying it came in slightly under the city estimate.
The item packet included the contract figure cited to council. Staff described the scope as a short waterline section (from Carl Albert to Choctaw) and estimated construction at roughly 60 days once bonds, insurance and a preconstruction meeting are complete and DWS approval is secured. "It's a short section... I'm almost say 60 days as far as construction goes," staff said. Council voted and the motion carried.
