Council approves trail‑design amendment, bridge inspection contract and several road namings tied to Epic campus
Summary
Council approved a $42,895 amendment for JT Engineering on the Military Ridge State Trail paving project, a $74,594.04 inspection contract with Benke Materials Engineering for the hyperdrive bridge (inspection costs borne by EPIC), and resolutions naming private roads at 1979 Milky Way and renaming part of Country View Road to Epic Lane for emergency response and campus alignment.
The council approved several Public Works items including additional design funding for trail work, an inspection contract for bridge fabrication and official street‑name updates tied to the Epic campus.
Alder Tucker Long moved to approve JT Engineering contract amendment No. 1 for the Military Ridge State Trail paving project for additional design costs not to exceed $42,895; council approved the amendment by voice vote. The additional work covers plan modifications and wetland delineation subcontracting to MSA.
Council also approved an inspection services contract with Benke Materials Engineering LLC for fabrication inspection and quality assurance of 126 prestressed concrete girders for the hyperdrive bridge across the Sugar River; the contract amount will not exceed $74,594.04 and inspection costs are the developer's responsibility (EPIC).
On streets and naming, council adopted resolution 26‑028 to assign four private road names at 1979 Milky Way for 9‑1‑1 addressing (Annex Drive, Staff Park F, Staff Park G, K Dock Road) and resolution 26‑029 to rename a portion of Country View Road to Epic Lane as part of campus reconfiguration; both passed with Alders Hernandez and Harrison abstaining.
Ending
Staff will proceed with contract amendments and execution; developer EPIC will pay inspection fees, and the street names will be recorded for emergency addressing.
