RED BUD AVE
City Council is aware of several complaints regarding Red Bud Ave, we are working with Eagle Engineering regarding a plan to repair this stretch of road. We will post more updates as they become available.
3.8.2024 – Council approved Eagle Engineering to move forward on this project, they will be requesting bids and setting a public hearing for the bid-letting. We hope to have construction started in fall of 2024, but it will depend on contractor availability. Due to the higher than anticipated estimated costs, Council will be doing some research on a possible GO Bond for this project and other smaller street projects and equipment needs within the City.
4.5.2024 – Council awarded the bid for Red Bud Ave to Bluffs Paving & Utilities in the amount of $246,398.47 at the March 26, 2024 meeting. We are working with the contractor to set up dates for the repair. Part of the scheduled road repairs are just outside city limits, Mills County has agreed to partner with the City on this project and cover some of the costs.
4.10.2024 – Bluffs Paving & Utilities has an opening in their schedule and are going to try to start this project the first week of May. The City is in favor of getting this project done before RAGBRAI. Jake Zimmerer w/Eagle Engineering will work with Bluffs Paving on scheduling. Once we have a start date, we will put out an update!
