Mayor Zac Weatherford
DAYTON-A Special Meeting of the City Council was held both in person and on Zoom at 6 PM, October 7.
The single agenda item, Resolution No. 1480, would authorize the mayor to execute a Public Works contract with Don Jackson Excavation for the 1st Street Bridge riprap repair. Anderson Perry & Associates opened the bidding on September 30 receiving two bids. Don Jackson Excavation submitted the lowest bid for $52,300. FEMA will fund 75 % of the repair cost.
Riprap is loose stone used to form a foundation for a breakwater or other structures.
Mayor Weatherford explained the need to vote on the issue before the regularly scheduled meeting was due to timing concerns as dry, summer weather was waning. The project should be completed before the wet season begins to avoid a delay until next summer.
The City Council passed the resolution by a unanimous voice vote, and the meeting adjourned at 6:09 PM.
