Public Works withholds final SRTS payment until contractor corrects concrete and erosion problems
Summary
The committee said complaints about concrete left in yards, washouts after recent rains and grass failing to establish have left the SRTS project payment on hold pending DOT walk‑around and satisfactory corrections.
City staff reported multiple complaints about the Safe Routes to School project, including concrete left in residents' yards, washouts from recent rains and turf that has not taken hold. Director Gary Etter told the committee the project is "waiting for DOT walk around" and that "the final payment is not to be done till the problems are satisfactorily corrected."
Committee members agreed staff should hold the final payment until visible punch‑list items are fixed, and noted repeated contractor deficiencies could affect final acceptance and retainage. The item remains open pending DOT inspection and satisfactory remedial work by the contractor.
