Century Spending Over $3.3 Million On Five Sewage Lift Stations
July 18, 2024
The Town of Century has approved over $3.3 million for five sewage lift stations.
Lift stations are designed to move wastewater from lower to higher elevation using a pump.
The lift stations to be construction or reconstructed are:
- Lift Station 1 – Century Correctional (including the mechanical bar screen and standby generator)
- Lift Station 4 – Century Woods
- Lift Station 8 – Highway 4 West
- Lift Station 16 – Jefferson Avenue
- Lift Station 20 – Pond and Jefferson
The bid was awarded to Talcon Group, LCC, of Havana, Florida for $3,365,175. Talcom was the lowest of two bidders. Pensacola Concrete Construction Company $10,561,045.88
The town has a total of 22 lift stations, and this is phase two of the repair and replacement process.
The council voted 3-0 to award the project with council members Dynette Lewis and Shelisa McCall absent.
