Board advances water‑meter replacement plan, authorizes engineering payments
Summary
Trustees directed Benton & Associates to pursue proposals from three meter vendors, budgeted design/bid/construct costs, and authorized payments totaling $27,518.31 to Benton for project work and engineering services.
The Village of Industry moved forward on a planned replacement of aging water meters at its Feb. 6 meeting. Benton & Associates identified Badger, Mueller and Census as the top contenders and recommended a vendor meeting so companies could present proposals; the Board agreed to seek proposals with a potential vote on purchases in March and installation targeted for April or May.
The minutes list budgeted costs for the meter project — $14,500 for design, $4,500 for bidding and $11,000 for construction — and record two engineering payments to Benton & Associates: $9,350 for phase II engineering at 80% completion and $19,618.31 tied to a Caldwell Tank disbursement request. Trustee Thompson moved to authorize the two invoices and Trustee Rittenhouse seconded; a roll‑call vote was held and the motion carried.
