Panama Accepts DirtWorx Sidewalk Bid For Sidewalk Project
PANAMA — The village of Panama has accepted a bid from DirtWorx Excavating for the village’s upcoming sidewalk project. The board had asked the company for a quote, with currently $35,000 to work with in the budget. The quote was given for the cost of doing 200 feet in a random area and 400 feet on Wesleyan Street. Discussion focused on that last time the board wanted to ask for 200 feet for both, and that it would be a good option for them to still do the 400 feet on Wesleyan to continue work already done there. Other questions included where the priority is for the random, specifically if North Street needs to be the priority or School Street.
