The Tuscaloosa Public Projects Committee convened on August 18, 2026, to consider a range of items including water infrastructure contracts, sewer project acceptance, airport grants and fee collection changes, alcohol license applications, and a property sale proposal. All items were approved except for a development RFP which was tabled indefinitely.
Brian approval of minor works pro public works contract with civil works construction. Yes, sir. Um we had uh three quotes we asked for for this project. Civil works was a low quote. Um we'll replace them. This line is actually 1.25 inches in diameter. It's galvanized. Um so we want to replace it. Uh it's 475 foot. We'll replace it with two inch PVC. The funding for this is pay for out of the water distribution capital repairs accounts, operational account. Um, and we'll do this in September. Um, any questions? Any questions for Brian? Second. Got a motion second. All in favor, aye motion passes. Uh Jenna item number two, Mike resolution accepting the install public infrastructure improvements for cover road. Yes, sir. So this is a project that was uh uh through the Tuscaloosa County Commission. Uh it's called the Culver Road Sewer Project. There's your general location along Culver Road and some of the side extension roads. Um the the project's complete, the punch lists have been taken care of with these grant projects. Um the county obtains the easements, then they turn the easements over to the sewer uh to us, and this is ready now for us to accept maintenance on the system. Mike, I've been getting a lot of complaints about some work done on this project. We sure like I've getting a lot of calls about yards being damaged from it and all kinds of issues. Has all that been taken care of? And if if not, will that be on us or will that be on the county? So it would be on the county. This resolution just allows the residents to connect. Okay. So for them to keep it. So any issues with the project that that's still that's not on that won't be on our dime to fix, that'll still be on the county's dime to fix right. Um Brian, you might combat that there'll be a warranty period with the contract, any issues like that. We handled by the contractor if you're not here. Um actually went out. One lady had developed like a sinkhole in her yard that they had to go back and fill in and all any kind of issues like that they'd be responsible for, correct? Yes, sir. That's right. And for that entire one-year warranty period. Okay, all right. Any other questions for Mike? Number four. Second, got a motion and second. All in favor. Uh motion passes. Uh number three, Mike, you back up. All right, so our next one is uh for a subdivision called Oakmont. This is on the south side of uh Hargrove Road, just beyond the curve. Um this is a townhome development, and in this situation, uh only public infrastructure is a sanitary sewer.
