Explanation
§ Propst Construction Company has developed a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) for construction of the Davidson Water Transmission Main. The construction will include 16,000 linear feet of new water main, ranging from 12 to 24-inch diameter, through the Town of Davidson into Iredell County (adjacent to Council Districts 2 and 4). Construction will begin near the intersection of Concord Road and Main Street and will extend to the northern limits of the Town of Davidson.
§ This new water main will improve water service, alleviate low pressures, and increase fire hydrant flow capacities for customers in the area.
§ On November 26, 2018, Council approved a contract with Propst Construction Company for Design-Build design services. Based on the design, a GMP for construction services was developed.
§ This project is anticipated to be complete by first quarter 2022.
