The Redevelopment Authority of the City of Butler will contract with a local company to provide engineering services for upcoming street reconstruction.
The authority’s board approved the proposal from Gateway Engineers at an amount not to exceed $19,500. Gateway’s was the lowest of three bids received.
The streets to be improved include Donaghy Avenue from Center Avenue to Short Street, Maple Avenue from South Monroe to Grant Street, South Main Street from East Muntz Avenue to East Patterson Avenue, and Wyoma Avenue from West Boyd to Wallulla.
Gateway will now research to create bid specifications for the project which could begin sometime this fall or early next year. The money to pay for the engineering services as well as the actual reconstruction will come from the 2020 Community Development Block Grant.
