A Resolution authorizing the City Engineer to advertise for bids for the award of a contract to provide construction services for the Elm Road Rehabilitation Project, as detailed in the specifications on file in the Division of Engineering, and authorizing the Mayor, following approval by the Board of Control, to enter into a contract for the same with the lowest and best bidder. This was a follow up from 2020-120 to apply for the grant dollars. Mr. DiFranco noted the 3,800 -foot resurfacing is estimated at $300,000 and the grant only requires 50 percent of the cost from the City. It is one of the lowest rated streets from our Street Assessment that is done annually. It will be a three inch remove and replace from asphalt and the goal is to be finished by the end of this year. Councilman Glassburn inquired about the age of the water pipes on the road and if there was any history of water issues for the road. Mr. DiFranco provided that information to Council via e-mail after the meeting. The committee voted 3-0 to recommend to Council. Councilwoman Hemann asked for a moment of personal privilege. I would like to extend my thanks and gratitude to the VFW for once again providing the services at the Memorial Day event at the park. Their mission statement, as many of you know, is that we honor the dead by serving the living. I am proud to be a lifetime member and serve in that mission statement with them. There was no parade. It was a scaled back event, but still nonetheless, very necessary for the work that we do there. I'd like to thank them for continuing it, even in the challenge of the pandemic. Thank you. 9
