The North Platte City Council will consider moving forward with professional services for a proposed public safety center and awarding a more than $320,000 water improvement project during its meeting Tuesday.
Council members will consider a recommendation to select Carlson West Povondra Architects for professional services for the North Platte Public Safety Center. The city received eight proposals for a needs assessment and site feasibility study, and a selection team appointed by the mayor recommended the firm following proposal reviews and interviews.
The council will also consider awarding a $320,127.35 bid to BSB Construction of Curtis for Special Water Improvement District No. 7. The project will cover Dewey Street from Philip Avenue to Leota Street.
Other agenda items include proposed changes to city rules for bicycles and electric bicycles. Ordinance 4273 would set a 10-mph maximum speed for bicycles, electric bicycles, electric scooters and hoverboards on sidewalks, trails and other pedestrian walkways.
Council members will also consider changes to speed limits along East Francis Street between Dewey Street and Newberry Access Road. The proposal includes 30- and 35-mph zones, with the S-curve between Westyn Avenue and Industrial Avenue remaining at 25 mph.
Additional business includes consideration of a Class C liquor license application for Flavors Kitchen & Bar at 2102 South Jeffers Street, second readings of several ordinances and a resolution involving a $151,388.79 claim to Level LLC.
