News

March 4th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

The Atlantic City Council, Wednesday, is expected to act on a recommendation from Snyder and Associates Engineers, with regard to the adding of streets to the City’s contract with Precision Concrete Services (PCS), of Atlantic. The change order would include the following projects and streets:

  • The reconstruction of 17th Street from Redwood Drive to the east dead end.
  • The Milling, Patching and overlay of: 9th Street from Palm to Cedar; 9th Street from Elm to Plum; 13th Street from Cherry to a dead end east of Plum; Locust Street from 8th to 10th Streets, & Maple Street from 7th to 10th Streets.

Henningsen Construction of Atlantic is the subcontractor for the asphalt overlay portion of those street projects. Snyder’s Dave Sturm has said locking in last year’s prices for the 2013 Street Improvement Projects (SIP)…which are not yet complete due to the weather…would save the City time and money. And, while the Council is expected to approve the change order option as opposed to going out for bids for the aforementioned projects, the 2014 Street Seal coat and micro-seal projects will be sent out to bid, because those projects were not included in the 2013 SIP word order.

In other business, the Council, Wednesday, is expected to approve a Resolution accepting improvements to the Atlantic Senior Center, as well as a Resolution accepting improvements to the Wastewater Treatment Plant. Their meeting, in the Atlantic Senior Center, begins at 5:30-p.m., Wednesday.
