City delays bid fight over private road access to disposal plant
Engineering and Construction Co of Oklahoma City faced a dispute with Penny over access to a site for the city’s sanitary landfill. City Atty. Stough warned the city might have to acquire a public access road if Penny refused. Penny offered to keep the road open at no charge, while noting his nonunion status blocked competitive bidding. Penny will permit use of his private road during construction. The city has no control over contractor-subcontractor bidding dynamics. The commission also advanced several street and sewer projects and read ordinances for storm sewer work and sewer lateral installations.
