California Men Land Contract for New Sewer System
After an executive session the city council awarded Bakersfield California firm Glass and Fischer the sewer system contract for 261842 90 with total project cost 285045 40 and 301000 available. The bid was the lowest among several proposals with alternatives withdrawn and details adjusted to reduce the total. The council set next steps for engineer details and began work on the citys largest expense project to build a 30 mile system with reinforced concrete under 20 inches and ancillary pumping and engineering costs. The report also criticizes the water company over proposed extensions and urges action to ensure adequate water supply and mains.
