A significant procurement action was the approval of a contract award to Avery Landscaping and Associates LLC for $51,100 for the mass grading project of approximately 12.3 acres within the I22 Industrial Park, including two building pads. The council also approved the purchase of a heating and air conditioning system for the Clyde Nicks Public Library with a budget not to exceed $20,000. Additionally, the council retracted a previous resolution awarding a bid for an alternative water supply project to Powell Builders Incorporated LLC due to state-related issues and postponed a related resolution pending state concurrence.
