Summary
Interim Administrator Angel Neighbours told council the sewer project is near completion and crews will restore properties before final funds are released; a property owner said he has retained an attorney and listed outstanding repairs, warning of legal action if work is not finished.
Interim Administrator Angel R. Neighbours told the council the city's sewer project is nearing completion and that the contractor is working to return affected properties to their prior condition. Neighbours said engineers, the contractor and city officials will perform a walk-through before final contractor funds are released to ensure restoration to "original or better condition."
Local property owner Todd Harrelson raised complaints during public comment, saying property owners sustained damage during the project and asking for prompt repairs. Harrelson told council he has compiled a list of outstanding items and has retained an attorney; he warned the city to address the repairs promptly to avoid legal action. "Mr. Harrelson stated that he had a list of things that needed to be completed to keep legal action from being taken by Mr. Harrelson and other property owners," the record shows.
