Summary

After engineering recommendations to replace a 24-inch clay tile, reconnect pipes, install a larger catch basin and replace ~10 feet of pipe, council approved Mansfield's $22,295 bid to repair the sinkhole at Municipal Lot #1; McLallen Construction had submitted a $23,450 bid.

Streets Supervisor Bob Phillips told the council a sinkhole at Municipal Lot #1 damaged a Municipal Authority pipe and that engineers recommended lining pipes in sections, replacing a 24-inch clay tile, reconnecting pipes in the sinkhole to the 24-inch line, installing a larger catch basin and replacing approximately 10 feet of pipe.

Two estimates were presented: Mansfield ($22,295) and McLallen Construction ($23,450). Both proposals required the borough to provide a truck during the project. On motion by Councilor Steadman, seconded by Councilor Osborn, council approved Mansfield’s $22,295 proposal; the motion carried unanimously.
