End May Be Near for Goose Creek Bond Program
Goose Creek officials say final components of the 2005 bond program can proceed with a roughly $240 million estimate now covered by a $6 million fund balance and savings from interest earnings. Bids for three projects were rejected for being over budget, and the district will reopen bidding to secure better prices while inflation drives costs higher. The Citizens Bond Advisory Committee supports deferrals and will back bids after price checks, with construction potentially starting 12 weeks after re-bidding.
