What happened
The Town of Star City is beginning a streetscape improvement project on University Avenue, which is estimated to cost approximately $1.6 million. The project includes installing around a dozen streetlights and 2,400 feet of conduit, along with sidewalk improvements covering about half a mile. Bobby Doyle requested that the town council approve a contract adjustment with Thrasher Engineering Group to allow them to decide on the winning bid.
