A recommendation on a winning bid for the Candy Lane Storm Sewer project in Plymouth is on hold for now.
Utility Superintendent Donnie Davidson was expected to provide a recommendation for approval during this week’s Plymouth Board of Public Works and Safety meeting, but he explained that he needs more time to evaluate costs and the long-term effect it will have on rate payers if they move forward with the bids submitted.
The bids were opened last month which found figures to be $200,000 more than the engineer’s estimate. At the time, Davidson was going to investigate why the bids were so much higher than the engineer’s estimate.
The storm water project is expected to alleviate flooding in
the area and has been discussed for several years.
Davidson said Monday night that he will meet with Umbaugh
and Associates officials in this evaluation process.
He could have a recommendation, but reminded board members that the bids are valid for 60 days. He will determine if it is economical to move forward and present information during the March 25 meeting.
The Plymouth Board of Public Works and Safety members unanimously approved a motion to table a bid award for the Candy Lane Storm Sewer project.
