The City of Aledo is moving forward with its residential development plan at Sponsler Manor.
There are three phases to the project, with Phase 1 including the construction of 13 homes.
At last week’s city council meeting, the City of Aledo approved an agreement with Miller Trucking & Excavating for $690,170.09 for infrastructure work at the Sponsler Manor 4th Addition project.
Aledo City Administrator Mike Chausse says they were able to save more than $140,000 after re-opening the bidding process.
The city also approved a contract with Hutchinson Engineering in the amount of $75,000 for construction observation services as part of the project.
Chausse says he hopes the infrastructure can be completed by the summer and then offer the lots for sale.
