Silver Creek board approves additional chipseal work despite staff warning of overage risk
Summary
Board approved two chipseal add-on projects—including a 20% add-on for 156th Street estimated at $14,693 and a wider intercity add-on that would bring total projects to about $605,349—despite maintenance staff advising the intercity add-on carried the highest risk of cost overages.
The Silver Creek Township Board of Supervisors voted 5-0 on June 26 to approve two additional chipseal add-on projects tied to Allied’s bid for a four-mile loop.
Maintenance told the board Allied holds the bid for the four-mile loop and the township has an option to add 20% to the contract to include 156th Street by Elder, north of the freeway, at an estimated add-on cost of $14,693. The minutes state Allied was scheduled to start work Monday, June 29. Staff reported that adding the Intercity Silver Creek segment would raise the township's total road projects to about $605,349 and that water for 150th and Intercity was estimated at about $3,000. Maintenance also noted contract language means the township pays for actual materials used, so quotes can vary from engineered estimates and are not fixed.
