Council approves $301,800 for River Road plant pump valves and a CIP budget transfer
Non-consent item 8.8 on the October 27, 2026 agenda would buy and install three slow-close check valves for pumps T-4, T-5 and T-6 at the River Road Wastewater Treatment Plant (the Xcel High Lift Station) from Austin Armature Works for $301,800 through BuyBoard, and transfer the same amount from PRJ-0000132 (Wastewater System Improvements & Repairs) to PRJ-0000246. The memo says the existing valves have been in service more than 30 years and that the CIP Oversight Committee approved the transfer. The council approved the purchase and transfer on October 27, 2026 on a voice vote with no opposition heard; staff said the valves control reuse water pumped to Xcel under contract.[1][2][3]
