Kirtley Construction awarded contract for Afton Farms waterline extension

The Rainbow Municipal Water District awarded a contract for the Afton Farms waterline extension to Kirtley Construction, Inc., which does business as TK Construction.

A 4-0 Rainbow board vote Oct. 27, with Bob Lucy absent, authorized a $136,760 contract with the San Bernardino company. The Afton Farms pipeline extension will construct 1,460 feet of eight-inch waterline and loop the pipeline system from Afton Farms to Calle de Talar, which will eliminate two dead ends in Rainbow's infrastructure system.

"It will save us money in the long run," said Rainbow general manager Tom Kennedy.
