(KLZA)--A bid has been accepted for a group of street improvements in Pawnee City.

City Clerk Tammy Curtis says the Pawnee City, City Council during their May 14th meeting accepted a bid of one million, three hundred and forty-five thousand dollars from Constructors Inc. of Lincoln to do the streets in group “A”, contingent on the approval of USDA Rural Development.

Curtis says bids came in higher than anticipated.

The street improvements were divided into two groups. She said they had enough funding to do group “A”, but only about half the amount needed to do the group “ B” streets

Construction is to start July 1st.

Curtis says Pawnee City has a more $1.6 million loan from USDA for the projects. In addition, there is more than $80,000 in a contingency fund the city hopes to be able to use.

A public hearing will be held during the May 29th City Council meeting concerning the creation of street improvement districts.
