Council approves two water‑tank payments and moves to re‑bid Well 4 pump after high bid
Summary
Montoursville authorized Payment App #4 ($247,500) and Payment App #5 ($98,055) for the 1.0 MG water storage tank and rejected a single, high Well 4 pump bid, authorizing a re‑bid and related advertising.
Council reviewed multiple water‑system items June 1 and approved two disbursements tied to the 1.0 MG Water Storage Tank Reservoir No. 4: Payment Application #4 for $247,500.00 (motion by Council Member Misty Emick, seconded by Marshall Winters) and Payment Application #5 for $98,055.00 (motion by Donald Konkle, seconded by Marshall Winters). Council described the tank work as a scheduled and budgeted water project.
Separately, the council rejected the lone bid for the Well 4 pump replacement because the single bid exceeded expected costs. Council moved, and approved, a motion to reject all bids received on April 2, 2026 and authorized Water Solicitor Tom Levine to advertise a re‑bid to solicit additional bidders. Council members said the re‑bid will involve contacting additional firms to produce more competitive pricing.
