Council approves revised bid award for downtown stormwater bump‑outs

Council approved a revised award for the stormwater bump‑outs project after an earlier scope change shifted the low‑bidder calculation. Staff explained that amending the scope produced a different lowest responsible bidder and recommended awarding the contract to a contractor with prior experience on the borough’s bump‑outs.

"Move to approve the revised bid award for the stormwater bumpouts," a council member said; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote. Staff said the recommended contractor has previously completed bump‑out work and sidewalks for the borough.
