Council approves $209,897 pay application for Sumas Avenue mobilization
Summary
The council approved pay application No. 1 for Sumas Avenue Improvements — $209,897.06 to Macanich Corporation for mobilization and initial grading — while staff warned of schedule risks and emphasized safety and proper coordination of access and utilities.
The Perry City Council approved Pay Application No. 1 for the Sumas Avenue Improvements in the amount of $209,897.06 to Macanich Corporation for mobilization and primary grading. Chair announced the item and a motion to approve was made and seconded before the roll-call vote.
A project manager told the council the contractor has begun mobilization and plans to begin utility work the next day, aiming for roughly "3,400 feet of pipe per day." He emphasized safety and access coordination — keeping residents out of the job site and managing traffic off Highway 169 — and warned that unrealistic schedules by the contractor could cause multi-day delays. The payment reflected the contractor reaching a 5% completion milestone, the manager said.
