ROCK SPRINGS During the Rock Springs City Council meetings, the Council announced it had received four bids for the first segment of the Bitter Creek Restoration project.
Prior to opening and reading the bids, Rock Springs Mayor Tim Kaumo said he would only be reading the base bids due to the nature of the project. There are several different options the companies can bid on, Kaumo said.
“These bids will be turned over to staff for review and recommendations,” Kaumo said.

This is just phase one of this multi-phased project. When all of the project’s phases have been completed, downtown residents and businesses will no longer be in flood plain. This will open up a lot of land around the creek for development and hopefully eliminate the flood insurance costs for those in that flood plain.
