The water tower in Oswego's Ogden Falls Subdivision will receive a fresh coat of paint as a result of action taken this past week by the village board.
As part of their consent agenda during a meeting Aug. 12, the board awarded a contract totaling $371,000 to Seven Brothers Painting, Inc. of Shelby Township, Michigan.
In a memo to the board, Jerry Weaver, the village's utility services director, noted that the current exterior paint on the tower is in poor condition and has "faded extensively and there are spot coating failures on the base cone and sidewalls."
Seven Brothers submitted the lowest of four bids received for the project, Jennifer Hughes, the village's director of public works told the board.
The 1.5 million gallon capacity water tower was constructed along the east side of Ogden Falls Boulevard about one-quarter mile south of the U.S. Route 34 and U.S. Route 30 intersection in 1998.
In his memo, Weaver noted that Seven Brothers' bid came in $88,900 lower than the village engineer's pre-bid estimate for the project.
In addition, board members noted the bid is significantly under the $800,000 line item previously designated in the village's current budget for the project.
Hughes said $800,000 was previously designated in the budget for the project because it was believed the contractor might have to install a containment curtain around the tower as it is being painted.
The curtain, she would, would cost about $200,000.
But Hughes said engineers for the village determined the tower does not need to be sandblasted and contractors can paint the tower with rollers instead of using spray paint.

Bungling workmen were left red-faced after painting 'Bup Stop' in the road to mark out a new bus stop.
Confused bus drivers and passengers had to look twice after the Bristol City Council workers misspelt the sign on the road surface in large yellow lettering.
The gaffe, which uses the stencilled letter P instead of an S, appeared last week as part of road repairs in the centre of the city.
The council was today unavailable for comment about the error involving the bus stop markings, which were painted in the busy Old Market area close to the city centre.
But Peter Mann, the service director for transport, said: "It is important that we carry out these improvements as soon as possible to maintain road safety for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians."
It isn't the first time Bristol City Council workers have needed a spelling lesson though.
Four years ago contractors painted a 'keep school clear' sign outside Our Lady of the Rosary Roman Catholic Primary School in Lawrence Weston.
Unfortunately on one side of the road 'school' was spelled without the letter 'C'.

After 15 years of effort by myriad citizens, two outdoor lighting task forces (the last of which I was a member) and thousands of hours of effort, it is time that Rio Rancho enact an outdoor lighting ordinance as so many other cities in New Mexico and around the country have done.
Living in a glare of our own making called light pollution, we have cut ourselves off from our evolutionary heritage the light of the stars and the rhythms of day and night.
Darkness is essential to the biological welfare of all living things.
Cheryl Ganch.
The American Medical Association passed a resolution in 2009 recognizing light pollution issues linked with health and safety. Glare from streetlights and intrusive light trespassing into our homes and bedroom windows is being linked to higher rates of cancer and other health problems.
Unsafe driving conditions also result from excessive glare on and along roadways. And the growth, behavior and survival of nocturnal species is being hurt by the disruption of the natural cycle of darkness.
Light pollution is largely the result of poorly designed light fixtures allowing light to shine outward and upward where not necessary (we dont park our cars above light poles and burglars dont float above the ground) instead of focusing light downward.
The simple solution to this problem is selecting fully shielded light fixtures that are dark sky friendly, which direct the light only where needed. Less energy is consumed and glare and light trespass are greatly reduced which is aesthetically pleasing, as well.
Reducing light trespass and glare affecting quality of life of all in Rio Rancho is the essence of the proposed Outdoor Lighting Ordinance on this Wednesdays governing body agenda. (Please note that under this agenda item No. 3 on the posted agenda on the citys website, there is a link to view an informative video supporting the enactment of an Outdoor Lighting Ordinance, which was created by the last Outdoor Lighting Task Force in their final report to the governing body in 2011.)

CHERYL GANCH: Light pollution cuts us off from evolutionary heritage
Kadai bowls, ranging in size from 30cm to 230cm, have been used for centuries across western India for cooking.
I was particularly impressed by the smokeless fuels walnut shell and vine briquettes, and vine root logs in the Kadai fire bowl range. These light easily, burn brightly, are effective for cooking, last well and, most importantly, result in very little smoke.
My husband and I tend to use the barbecue for serious quantities of food, but enjoy cooking on the fire bowl or pit as we can sit round it with friends. We hot smoked a chicken the other night in the Kadai bowl using a rotisserie. The smoky flesh was succulent and delicious.
I also consulted Barbecue Ben, or Benjamin Bartlett, who is president of the British Barbecue Association. Last year he judged the World Barbecue Championships in Morocco. The variety of smokers (wood-fired barbecues) varied immensely. The Moroccan team in long white coats sat on stools and cooked a goat for three hours over a huge open fire pit, while the Germans had flashy, stainless steel affairs.
Different types of wood are key to flavour. Ben loves apple and oak as a general-purpose wood to get the fire going, before adding soaked wood chips for flavour. Hickory adds smokiness, but Ben suggests soaking small wood chips in whisky for three to five minutes, or cricket ball-sized chunks for 10 minutes, before adding them to the fire to flavour the meat.
He recommends spraying the meat (using an indoor plant mister) with unsweetened apple juice regularly to moisten and caramelise it. Cider can be used as well to give the meat a real taste of apple. Ben uses Gloven oven gloves. His book BBQ Manual: The Whole Hog (Haynes, 21.99) provides a wealth of information.
Nic Snell, of Certainly Wood, says that wood with less than 20 per cent moisture delivers minimal smoke and great heat. His kiln-dried wood is top-notch, resulting in fires with very little smoke. He also sells Flamers natural firelighters (5.99 for 50).
I have also used smokeless fuels, such as Ecoal and Homefire Smokeless, adding smelling wood and sprigs of rosemary or thyme for ambience.
Outdoor fireplaces can be a great focus in your garden. If we have people over for the weekend, we leave the embers glowing day and night, letting our firepit transport us to a magical place.
