The work is required to relocate the underground electrical lines due to the installation of a new drain field. It includes trenching, replacing the conduit and pulling the wiring, and backfilling the trench. City crews do not have all the tools available nor the full range of expertise to complete this work. Three price quotes were obtained from qualified contractors, resulting in a low bid of $1,160.00 from Langer Electric Company.

Based on the need to contract out this work, it is recommended that the expense of $1,160.00 be approved by the Mayor and City Commission.
