Council OKs $20,000 ceiling for roadway on-site fixes and updates school-zone ordinance
Summary
Council authorized staff and the on-site inspector to approve additional unsuitable-subbase excavation at $85 per cubic yard up to $20,000 for the 2026 roadway project and waived first reading on an updated school-zone ordinance covering multiple elementary schools.
Engineering asked council to allow the inspector and staff authority to approve on-site additional excavation and replacement of unsuitable subbase at a unit price of $85 per cubic yard, up to a $20,000 ceiling, to avoid repeated mobilization costs on the South Seneca rebuild; council approved the work-change directive with that ceiling.
Separately, staff proposed an update to the city's school-zone ordinance to enumerate school zones and times for all elementary schools; council waived the first reading and approved ordinance 14-49-26 to modernize school-zone designations. Staff said engineers recommended specific street segments and times for safety and statutory compliance.
