Marina Project Gets More Funds

Gulfport City Council voted unanimously at the Tuesday, January 20 meeting to allow the city manager to approve a contract change with Precision Petroleum Inc. for additional work and materials for the Gulfport Municipal Marina Fueling Renovation project in the amount of $25,490.

Council previously approved the construction of a live-aboard support facility and renovation of the existing store as part of the 2014 budget. During excavation, the underground electrical wiring was found to be beyond repair, and the new monies will provide for the installation of new stainless conduit and electrical wiring.
