(KLZA)-- The Pawnee City Council has awarded a bid to have the city water tower cleaned.

Monday night the Council opened four bids for cleaning the outside of the water tower. Bids ranged from a low bid of nearly $5,700 up to more than $17,000.

Following discussion, the Council voted to approve the low bid of $5,695 from the National Wash Authority.  Approval is contingent on the company being bonded and insured.

A date for the project to begin has not been set.
