CITY COUNCIL 7/22/25

The City Council of Greer held a meeting on July 22, 2025, where key procurement and budget-related discussions focused on the early work release for the construction of a new sports and events center and fire training center. The council reviewed the qualifications for construction management at risk services and discussed the scope of early civil work, including grading, curb and gutter, stormwater management, and utility installation, with a target start date of August 11, 2025. The council approved moving forward with this early release package to maintain the project schedule and finalize the guaranteed maximum price (GMP). Additionally, the council considered a first reading of an ordinance authorizing an agreement with Spartanburg County regarding fire service and financial arrangements for annexed properties in the Duncan fire service area, obligating the city to pay a proportionate share of bond costs totaling approximately $56,000. Both items were approved by council votes. The meeting also included financial updates and departmental reports but no other procurement actions or executive session items.
