Summary

Staff presented a River City quote to pave a gravel stretch now inside city limits and recommended soliciting another bid; council members noted the city has a small-street fund (~$50,000) that could be used and urged staff to confirm contractor schedules and proceed this fiscal year if feasible.

Staff presented a paving test and estimate from River City for a portion of East Honey Creek Drive that recently became part of the city and remains gravel.

"This is for obviously, up on East Honey Creek Drive...there's a portion that's in the city limits now that actually has gravel road," a staff member said while circulating the quote and asking council whether to proceed this fiscal year or wait until the next budget cycle.

Council members recommended soliciting at least one more bid, and staff said the city maintains a small-street projects fund (about $50,000 set aside in a prior year) that could be used for the work. Staff also agreed to check contractor schedules and return with a second bid and timing for construction.

No formal bid award occurred during the committee meeting; staff will return with additional bids and a recommended funding source for council action.
