Taft Heights Sewer Replacement: County’s September Agenda Listed Notice of Completion

TAFT HEIGHTS, Kern County — Document review, November 8, 2026. Residents in Taft Heights can find a specifically local sewer-infrastructure item in the Kern County Board of Supervisors’ September 29, 2026, 2 p.m. meeting agenda. Under the Ford City–Taft Heights Sanitation District heading, item C-2 lists Contract No. 25026, a proposed Notice of Completion with S&B Sons, Inc., for sewer-segment replacements.

What does a notice of completion mean?

A notice of completion is a formal part of the construction-contract process. The item indicates the county intended to place a completion action before its governing board. However, an agenda listing is not the approved meeting minutes, and this article cannot independently confirm the Board’s vote, the date each line segment was finished, or the operational status of any particular address.

Which agency is responsible?

The filing appears under the Ford City–Taft Heights Sanitation District, not the City of Taft’s general city-council agenda. Because sewer districts have their own service boundaries and financing, property owners should confirm their precise district and parcel status before assuming a new sewer lateral or service change applies to them.

How residents can verify the decision

Use the county meeting record for September 29 and request the adopted minutes, signed notice of completion, project location map and any service-connection guidance from the issuing sanitation district. A contract-completion item is not a notice of a new sewer bill, street closure or boil-water advisory.
