Milton council approves $586,700 construction-phase engineering contract

Milton City Council · August 20, 2026

Summary

The council unanimously approved a $586,700 task order for construction-phase engineering, contract administration and project observation so Donovan Hill Group will provide on-site oversight during construction of the effluent disposal components.

The council approved a $586,700 task order to provide construction-phase engineering, contract administration and project observation services for the effluent disposal system. Donovan Hill Group would provide engineering oversight during bidding and the anticipated 18-month construction period to ensure work meets design intent and FDEP requirements.

Council members asked whether approving this task order under an existing contract short-circuits a competitive procurement. Staff and legal counsel said this is an additional task order under an existing contract and does not violate procurement statutes or policy; the approach is intended to consolidate construction oversight and reduce the need for multiple separate technical responses during construction. Councilman McKee summarized the practical effect: “No project manager will be required because this is essentially paying for a project manager,” noting the city would avoid duplicative costs.
