2026 Water Pipeline Project

Drinking-water pipeline replacement and connection work that the council awarded on April 7, 2026 to Noland & Son Construction Co. Inc. for $3,872,874, funded from bond proceeds. The figure is the approved contract award, not a payment total, and change orders could alter the final cost. The records reviewed do not show an executed agreement, notice to proceed, payments or current construction status.

    Resolution 2026-R-17: 2026 Water Pipeline Project contract award

    Approved · 4-0

    Staff recommended awarding the 2026 Water Pipeline Project to Noland & Son Construction Co. Inc. at $3,872,874, paid from bond proceeds set aside for water-line improvements, and asked the council to suspend the rules given the project timeline. Staff said the schedule calls for completion within 240 calendar days of the notice to proceed, with a finish in fall 2026 or spring 2027 depending on the start date and timing of State Street work, and noted a winter shutdown beginning Oct. 15, 2026. The city's February invitation for bids (MID26-139) listed 13 drinking-water projects, mostly new eight-inch PVC pipe, on Cooper Street, Alta View Drive, Olympus Street, Wood Street, Marquette Drive, Wilson Street, Cox Lane, 900 East/Casa Negra, Casa Blanca Drive, Casa Blanca Avenue/Circle, Casa Verde Street, Mecham Lane and 7500 South. Those are the locations solicited, not a list of completed work. The minutes do not establish a notice to proceed, change orders, payments or completion.

    • Award authorization only: no payment, notice to proceed or change order is established by this record.
    • Packet agreement form: 240 calendar days from notice to proceed for substantial completion and 255 for final completion; contract days suspended Oct. 15, 2026 to March 15, 2027. The packet copy lacks a city signature and effective date, so it is not shown to be the executed agreement.
    • Source discrepancy: the invitation for bids says 13 projects; the packet agreement form says 12 while listing the same 13 street entries.
