Council's awarded J. Provost Contracting another major contract: to reconstruct part of a local street.
A resolution passed by Council Tuesday night - just moments after approving the waterfront project tender - accepts the tender from J. Provost Contracting for water and sewer reconstruction on part of Toronto Avenue.
The resolution notes two tenders were received, giving no details about the other tender, though it notes Provost's $1,978,521.75 tender comes within the project estimate and capital budget amount.
Infrastructure Services Director Cory Stainthorpe told Council he hopes to have the work start by the end of the month - possibly within two weeks - though he suggested various delays in getting the contract confirmed mean that asphalting of the road likely won't happen until spring.
