Kincaid authorizes up to $5,000 for sewer‑plant valve repair
Summary
Trustees authorized $3,500–$5,000 for replacement of a sewer‑plant valve; the lower estimate applies if no concrete must be removed, with higher costs if concrete removal is needed.
Public‑works lead Tommy told trustees the sewer plant needs a valve replaced to aid recirculation when flow is low. He reported a written estimate: $3,500 if the crew can avoid tearing out concrete, and $4,500–$4,500 (reported as roughly $4,500) if concrete removal is required. Trustee Paso moved to authorize spending between $3,500 and $5,000 for the repair to ensure coverage for contingencies; the motion was seconded by Nelson and passed unanimously.
Tommy said the repair would improve recirculation in the system and that staff will obtain a written estimate and proceed with replacement once the funding authority is confirmed.
