Council signs off on drainage projects; Quincy Street right‑of‑way work held for property-owner contact
Summary
Bennet council approved a Pavers proposal for an inlet at Van Buren & Garden and authorized ditch cleaning at Cottonwood at Cochrane Corner (not to exceed $13,000); the Quincy Street right‑of‑way surveying fee was pulled from consent pending property-owner outreach.
City Engineer Brian Schuele presented engineering options and cost estimates for multiple local drainage projects. The council approved the Pavers proposal for the inlet at Van Buren & Garden by roll-call vote and also approved cleaning the ditch on the north side of Cottonwood at Cochrane Corner with an estimated cost not to exceed $13,000.
Discussion about the Quincy Street right-of-way project led the council to remove Catlett Surveying’s $2,500 fee from the consent agenda so staff could contact affected property owners before approving the right-of-way plan. The minutes note that property-owner contact is required prior to final approval of the Quincy Street right-of-way work.
The approved ditch-cleaning item was explicitly capped in the motion at $13,000; the inlet work was approved via the Pavers proposal as presented in the engineer’s materials. The minutes do not include detailed contract language or project schedules; follow-up by city engineering staff is required to implement the approved work.
