The Locust Grove City Council voted at its July 6 regular meeting to approve a $696,000 bid awarded to Mid-South Builders for the Davis Lake sewer extension.
In its recommendation to the council, staff indicated that several of the submitted bids were lower than what the city had expected the project to cost. It will be funded initially by the city’s current balance of tap fees and impact fees assessed to new developments for system improvements, but officials expect future connection fees to this line that will repay that fund in an amount large than this investment.
The vote to approve was unanimous.
