LAKEPORT – During a short election night meeting, the Lakeport City Council will consider awarding a contract for a city infrastructure project.

The meeting begins at 6 p.m. at Lakeport City Hall, 225 Park St.

City Engineer Scott Harter will take to the council a contract for the South Main Street Drainage Project, which he'll ask them to award to Argonaut Constructors.

Harter's report to the council explains that on Oct. 29 the city received nine bids for the project, ranging from just under $240,000 to $345,000.

Santa Rosa-based Argonaut Constructors' bid was the lowest, at $239,344. According to Harter, funding for the project, at $320,142, is accounted for in the Public Works Department budget.

If the council doesn't approve the contract, all of the bids will need to be rejected and the process started again, Harter reported.

The council also has a closed session scheduled to discuss property negotiations regarding Green Ranch and 1473 Martin St.
