Mace Road Phase 2 approved
OSAGE BEACH Improvements to Mace Road are continuing with the final approval
of a contract with Bartlett and West, Inc. for the Mace Road Phase 2
Improvements.
The approval is for engineering services only construction will take place in
the future.
The project area is generally described as Mace Road from Aver Road on the west
to Osage Beach Parkway on the east. This project (when completed) will upgrade
Mace Road from a ditched roadway to a curb and guttered roadway with an enclosed
storm water system.
The intersection with Orvill Drive will also be reconstructed. Mace Road will be
rehabilitated leading up to Osage Beach Parkway. No reconstruction of Osage
Beach Parkway is expected with this project.
There will also be a sidewalk constructed on one side of Mace Road the entire
length of the project. The sidewalk will be on the north side to tie into the
Phase 1 improvements.
The roadway will be reconstructed (as much as possible) on the current
alignment. Bartlett and West are currently working on Phase 1 of the project.
The city budgeted $225,000 for the project but were able to negotiate this
contract for $213,000.
Services will include:
Topographic and boundary survey
the production of preliminary and final plans,
development of legal descriptions for the easement acquisitions
utility coordination, and
Limited assistance during bidding and construction.
In other business at last weeks Board of Aldermen meeting:
Approved the second reading of a contract with Evoqua Water Technologies, LLC

drive through a city roundabout.
Approved the first reading amending the city design guidelines for sidewalks
and mail box placement near sidewalks.
Approved both readings for a budget amendment for services associated with the
installation of new firewalls.
At the 11/02/2017 Board of Alderman meeting, the Board approved the purchase,
configuration, and installation of some new firewalls for a total of
$63,051.39, Mike Welty, Assistant City Administrator said in his report to the
board. The firewalls were purchased in 2017, but due to changes in staff and
scheduling conflicts we were unable to schedule AOS for the install and
configuration until January 2018. The install and configuration portion of the
service ($11,155.00) needs to be shifted to the 2018 budget through a budget
amendment since the work was done in 2018 instead of 2017.
