Phase I Project Negotiations have been continuing with two local excavating contractors to sell the Indykiewicz dirt piles. Test holes will be dug in the piles this week to determine the content and value of the soil. At this time, staff is leaning toward recommending to Council acceptance of the low base bid, plus the landscaping alternate on Phase 1. Staff would then sell the excess dirt, independent of the Phase I project. Lift Station No.3 Good progress was made on lift station number 3 reconstruction this past month, and if all goes well, the new station should be in operation within a week. Public Works employees inspected the mechanical portion and control panel of the new station along with City Engineer Brown and work to-date looks good. The City provided pea rock from seal coat sweepings for bedding around and under the lift station to ensure a stable foundation. Public Works Department The department has not had that much snow to plow this month, but the same amount of salt and sand was used as if we had lots of snow. Whether we have 1/4" of sleet, 1" or I' of snow, about the same amount of sand/salt mix is used, and it seemed like we have sanded every other day.
