City staff told the commission that bids for ADA sidewalk repairs in the Greenbrier area came back with a large spread and that proceeding would require additional funds.
"We had two bids, quite a spread, the high of $162,500, the apparent low bidder at $69,442.02," the presenter said, adding that the budget currently includes $20,000 for the work. Staff said the project would address about 31 trip-hazard locations.
Because the low apparent bid still exceeds the available budget, the staff member said they would place the item on the commission's next agenda to consider allocating roughly $49,000 additional funds to proceed. No vote was taken at the workshop.
What happens next: The commission will consider the sidewalk-repair contract and any required budget amendment at the next public meeting when a formal action item will be presented.
