Pumping Station project delayed; council asks USDA documentation before approving $80,430 inspection amendment
Summary
GMB engineers reported the pumping station project is running behind and proposed an amendment for up to $80,430 in full‑time inspection services required by USDA. The council tabled the amendment pending documentation from USDA and expects to revisit the item in December.
Engineers from GMB told the Trappe council that the Pumping Station project, scheduled for substantial completion Nov. 29, 2025, is running behind and likely will not reach final completion until January 2026.
Jason Lytle presented an amendment for additional full-time inspection services as required by USDA, stating the amendment "is for an additional $80,430.00." Council members asked staff to obtain documentation from USDA demonstrating the inspection requirement before approving any additional cost and tabled the amendment until the December meeting.
The amendment as presented was described as a maximum amount; Mr. Lytle said costs will be adjusted as services are used. Council discussion focused on verifying the USDA requirement and the fiscal impact before committing to the additional inspection funding.
