Nassau County commissioners approve several contracts, cancel two holiday meetings
Nassau County commissioners on Oct. 13 approved multiple contracts and work orders covering road design, fuel delivery, mobility reservations and demolition work, and voted to cancel two upcoming holiday meetings.

The actions approved by the Board of County Commissioners affect transportation projects, county facilities and a floodplain demolition program and were adopted unanimously. The board also set its annual reorganization meeting for December and approved an interlocal agreement to provide code‑enforcement magistrate services to the Town of Callahan.

Key approvals included a corrected mobility reservation payment tied to the East Nassau County Planning Area; a design contract for a west‑side government campus; a three‑year fuel delivery contract; a design and permitting contract for the Pages Dairy Road extension and Black Rock Road pedestrian gap; and a work authorization for demolition in the Thomas Creek acquisition program.

- Mobility reservation agreement (Tab B): The board approved entering into a mobility reservation agreement with Bald Light LLC, with staff clarifying a clerical error in the agenda and stating the correct payment amount as $3,530,428.15. Motion by Commissioner Martin, second by Commissioner Farmer. Outcome: approved unanimously.

- Westside Government Annex design (Tab G): The board authorized a professional design services contract with Clemens Rutherford and Associates for Phase 1 of the Westside Government Annex in Callahan in the amount of $628,903.12. Motion by Commissioner Farmer, second by Commissioner Gray. Outcome: approved unanimously.

- Fuel delivery services (Tab J): The board approved a contract with Gate Fuel Services for gasoline and diesel delivery to county yards, a three‑year agreement with a not‑to‑exceed amount of $3,000,000. Motion by Commissioner Martin, second by Commissioner Farmer. Outcome: approved unanimously.

- Pages Dairy Road extension and Black Rock Road pedestrian improvements (Tab R): The board authorized a contract with Peters & Yaffe, Inc. for design and permitting of the Pages Dairy Road extension Phase 1 and Black Rock Road pedestrian facility gap‑connection improvements in the amount of $1,372,817.94. Motion by Commissioner Martin, second by Commissioner Green. Outcome: approved unanimously.

- Thomas Creek demolition (Tab W / Work Authorization #1, CM83880): The board approved work authorization No. 1 under contract CM83880 with Elevate Partners LLC for demolition of structures as part of the Thomas Creek acquisition program, in the amount of $113,240. Motion by Commissioner Farmer, second by Commissioner McCullough. Outcome: approved unanimously.

- Cancel two meetings (Tab X): The board voted to cancel the Nov. 24, 2025 and Dec. 22, 2025 commission meetings due to the holiday schedule. Motion by Commissioner Martin, second by Commissioner Gray. Outcome: approved unanimously.

- Annual reorganization meeting (Tab Y): The board set its annual reorganization special meeting for December 2025 at 4 p.m. Motion by Commissioner Gray, second by Commissioner McCullough. Outcome: approved unanimously.

- Interlocal for special magistrate services (Tab Z): The board approved an interlocal agreement (contract CM3954) with the Town of Callahan to allow the county’s code‑enforcement special magistrate to provide services to that town; prosecution remains the responsibility of the towns. Motion by Commissioner McCullough, second by Commissioner Farmer. Outcome: approved unanimously.

All recorded votes were taken by voice; when asked “All in favor?” commissioners responded “Aye” and there were no recorded oppositions. The roll call at the start of the meeting showed Commissioners McCullough, Gray, Farmer, Martin and Chair A.M. Huffman present.

Next steps: Several contracts require ministerial follow‑up (for example, correcting the Bald Light LLC agreement to reflect the corrected dollar amount). The commission will resume its regular meeting schedule and take up outstanding business, including a proposed lobbyist registration ordinance at the Oct. 27 meeting.
