Tecumseh council approved Change Order #2, reducing the power-plant cooling project cost by $44,863.75, and approved a final pay application to Farabee Mechanical for $246,433.63. Council also heard that the cooling project is substantially complete.

Councilors on Dec. 1 approved financial actions tied to the city’s power-plant cooling project.

The council approved Change Order #2, a decrease of $44,863.75 to the project, and approved the final pay application from Farabee Mechanical in the amount of $246,433.63. Lorie Topp moved both items; motions were seconded and recorded as carrying with aye votes from all five members present.

Utility Department staff (Doug Goracke) told the council the cooling project is substantially complete; reimbursements from the governor’s office had been slowed by a shutdown but were improving. The minutes also record related utility work: demolition of the old pool house, replacement of a pole near 10th Clay and an identified need to replace switchgear at Tecumseh Poultry. The minutes do not specify a remaining project closeout schedule or final funding sources for the switchgear replacement.
