HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Hutchinson City Council approved a resolution for sending out for the bonding of previously approved city projects at its meeting Wednesday morning after the July 4 holiday.
"We have already done the resolutions or ordinances for authorizing the projects to be bonded," said Finance Director Angela Richard. "The next step is to approve this resolution, which will allow us to go out to bids to actually bond these projects."
The approval amount is $2,600,000. The bonding would be for $2,444,000, with additional monies going toward the cost of the bond sale.
The projects this would encompass include:
14th at Marland & Hoagland Bridge, estimated at $1,050,000
Harsha Park Improvements estimated at $350,000
Playgrounds -Grandview and Herman Bunte estimated at $275,000
City Hall HVAC Replacement estimated at $160,000
Woodie Seat Design and Study estimated at $450,000
Elmdale roof estimated at $159,000
"The bond sale would be scheduled for August 14," Richard said. "We would come to you again August 15 to authorize the sale and with the bid results for the sale. We would anticipate closing on the bonds around September 12. That's when we would actually get the proceeds from the bond sale."
The Hutchinson City Council approved the resolution unanimously.
