Sewer project on schedule; board reports $848,000 contingency and forthcoming laterals work
Summary
Board's sewer update said the project remains on schedule with work on Main Street continuing, laterals expected next spring/summer, and an $848,000 contingency with about $145,000 used so far; bond funds cannot be used for operating costs.
During committee reports the board received a substantive update on the sewer project. Staff reported that work down Main Street is ongoing, laterals to homes are scheduled for next spring or summer, and the project remains on schedule.
The update included an accounting summary: the project holds an $848,000 contingency and contingencies to date total roughly $145,000. Board members noted previous concerns about remediation in industrial parcels were resolved without remediation expenses and discussed the need for potential operational startup loans because the bond proceeds cannot be used for operating costs.
Staff said Cedarwood Engineering and Cedarwood Environmental will provide initial commissioning and first‑year operations support, and that more detailed sewer operating budget numbers will be prepared for the board as users are added.
