Indianola streetscape project OK d, expected to cost almost $10 million

After nearly an hour and a half of public comment Monday evening, the Indianola City Council unanimously voted to move forward with its streetscape project. The city will end up paying $9,645,509.80 to Absolute Concrete Inc. for the downtown Square s redesign. The project was originally expected to cost $6,877,765.10. Despite the higher price, councilmember Greg Marchant backed the project, saying the council can t keep kicking these projects down the road. Would I have liked to have a lower bid? Sure, he said. But I m glad we got a bid. The city is expected to use funds from the local option sales and services tax, along with a $4.7 million bond through tax increment financing to fund the project. Taxes are not expected to be raised to fund the project.
