Hawthorne Borough Council · August 18, 2026

Summary

Engineer Kevin Boswell reported DLS Contracting was the low bidder on two 2026 road projects; council approved consent-agenda resolutions to award the contracts during a roll-call vote.

Engineer Kevin Boswell told the council that bids for the 2026 road program were received on Aug. 6 and recommended awarding contracts to DLS Contracting as the low bidder.

"The amount was 1,276,667 30," Boswell said for the base bid (transcript quoting). He also reported a low bid of $878,002.11 for the local aid project covering Westervelt, McFarland and North 17th Street improvements. Both awards were on the consent agenda and passed by roll call in tonight's meeting.

Councilmembers expressed appreciation that work will be done before the school year on affected streets and asked administration to coordinate resident notification for parking and driveway access during paving. Kevin Boswell said paving for Westervelt is scheduled after the borough leadership camp ends, with specific dates discussed in committee.
