City Council Rejects Both Main Street Bids for Being Too High

Friday, September 27th, 2024

The main street railroad crossing, will be a major issue in moving the sewer and water lines to the side of the street during the project. In a few cases, current sewer lines will have to be rehabilitated, as opposed to being moved to the side, out from under the roadways.

The Monticello City Council met in budget committee, Thursday night to discuss the total $7.3 million bids that were received on Tuesday for moving the water and sewer lines out from under Main Street, north and south, and the possible ways to finance the higher than expected costs.

After an hour long meeting, the council agreed to reject both bids, instead of saddling the city with the long-term expense of paying the debt, which was higher than the bids were expected to come in at.

They will likely meet in a special call meeting to pass a resolution to make this official, but they were unanimous in their decision, at this point.

They agreed to have ARDOT mI’ll and pave Main Street, as was previously set out in the  Scogin Drive Extension agreement.

The council agreed that the waterlines do need to be moved out of the street, also that the sewer lines are not a top priority, at this point, and to consider other ways to take care of the waterline relocation, in the near future, just not at the current bid expense.
