TWENTYNINE PALMS — Approval of a contract to construct a wastewater treatment plant for businesses in the downtown Project Phoenix area will return to the city council at its next meeting.
Consideration of the contract, tabled at the March 26 council meeting, will be considered again when council members meet at 6 p.m. Tuesday, April 9.
City staff has recommended approval of a contract to pay $1,999.934, with a 10 percent, $199,993, contingency, to 316 Engineering and Construction to build a treatment plant to serve businesses in the project area bordered on the north by Twentynine Palms Highway, on the south by Cactus Drive, on the west by Tamarisk Avenue and on the east by Cholla Avenue.
Council members voted, on March 26, to table the item after questions were raised during a public hearing.
They have until the end of April to approve the contract before 316 Engineering and Construction withdraws its bid.
