2009 Street Project
Tonight the City Council will be considering whether or not to proceed with the 2009 Street Improvement Project. The bidding environment for this project was good. Windom recieved six bids for this project and all of them were under the engineer's estimates. The apparent low bidder was Hjerpe Construction with a bid of $1,144,320 for the bituminous option and $1,158,295 for the concrete option.
Spring Clean-up Fee
On the City utility bills that we all recieved in the mail this week included a new $1.00 month fee for residential properties. The money collected through this fee will be utilized to pay for the annual Spring Clean-up. This year the Spring Clean-up will be held on April 25th and May 2nd (depending on your garbage pick up day). More information will be available in late-March or early-April.
2008 Annual Report
The City Council will be recieving the 2008 Annual Report on March 3rd. This report contains a wealth of information and statistics regarding City services and utilities. After the report is accepted by the City Council it will be posted on the City's web site (http://www.windom-mn.com/).
