Watertown to enter bond to pay for sewer project
Apr. 20—The Watertown City Council has approved a 25-year bond for $5.5 million to fund its sewer project, but the city will first have to put the bond in the market.
"We approved bids back in January to do what I had referred to as a major sewer project, and it is very major, perhaps the biggest one we've ever done in this city," Watertown mayor Mike Jennings said.
The city council approved the contract with Conrad Construction for the total bid amount of $5,419,580 in January, contingent upon being able to obtain financing.
