Council approves $25,000 amendment to add inspector for FM 4000 sewer project; vote 3-1
Summary
Council approved a $25,000 amendment to KSA's task order to fund a licensed inspector for the FM 4000 sewer-line project, bringing the total contract adjustment to $92,200; members asked about inspector hours and value for cost.
The Mount Pleasant City Council voted to amend the original task order for engineering services on the FM 4000 sewer-line improvement to include a licensed inspector at a cost of $25,000.
Director Marshall said the original task order (signed Sept. 3, 2024) covered engineering and design but did not include an on-site inspector. The amendment covers inspector services and raises the total task-order amount to $92,200. Council members questioned hourly rates and whether the fee represents actual on-site hours or a project-based inspector allocation; council recorded divergent views on inspector staffing levels and oversight.
A motion to approve the $25,000 amendment passed with three ayes and one nay. Council asked staff to clarify inspector scheduling and reporting practices during the project.
