I would entertain a motion to approve.

So moved.

Moved and seconded.

All in favor say aye.

Aye.

Minutes are approved.

Item number one, new business is approval of a minor public works contract with the civil works construction for the two night 219 Greensboro Avenue Water Distribution Improvement Project.

The total is 42,145 dollars.

Mike, welcome.

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

Need to apologize.

There was a small operator error, and we don't have the images available for the screen.

So in your packet.

You have in your packet the images that uh so real um the location here is at the corner of Greensboro Avenue and Jack Warner Parkway.

This is the old River Hill apartment project.

Oh and in the negotiations and acquiring easements for the Jack Warner Parkway project.

Um the city negotiated with that owner in exchange for giving us the easements that we would install a fire line to the building.

Uh so that day has come.

And the uh it's uh minor public works contract with civil works construction, they'll environ install a fire line extension, the appurtenances that go on along along with that.

Uh the work actually happens on uh on the Greensboro Avenue side of the property.

Uh you the second image in your packet there, you'll see the area highlighted in yellow.

That is where we got temporary easements and permanent easements for the roadway project.

Then the area clouded in red is the location of the water line improvements that uh civil works will be performing on behalf of the city.

And the second page is just a little enlarged view of that work component.

Uh this is funded out of our uh Jack Warner Parkway project, and we're still under budget.

That's good.

So Mike, I got a little confused.

We're putting in 42 grand of pipe in exchange for an easement.

Yes, sir.

Where's the easement?

So the easement uh I thought I read in your note that it was on Skyland.

Is that should not have said we acquired a corner of the property here to make this right-hand turn.

Okay.

And then we got easements as well from the landowner here.

What are those easements for?

This was temporary construction and grading evidence.

Okay.

Well, part of it we did for the utilities, the rest of it uh kind of extinguished when the project was over.

Okay.

And in exchange, in exchange for that piece.

Yes, sir.

We're putting in 40 something thousand of fire bike fire line, yes.

So I'm I'm not acquainted with the market for that.

Is that a good deal?

It is.

Yeah, we we we we sent it out for pricing, and and this was the best price that we got back.

Okay.

Motion.

The motion second, all in favor say aye.

Aye.

Thank you.

Item one's approved.

Item two is approval of amendment number one to the engineering contract, capstone engineering group for the 36th Avenue East Drainage Improvement Project for totals 3,950.

Zach, welcome.

Good afternoon, Council.

Good afternoon.

So this is one of the projects that was approved for the uh the smaller drainage projects, the neighborhood drainage funding that we had earlier this year.

Uh this is the project where the sewer line is exposed behind Barkley off of 36th Avenue East that we're doing grading and uh addressing all those issues.

Uh the design is complete, so now we're moving forward with getting the easements.
