Lucas County commissioners on Aug. 12 approved three facilities-related contracts: a one-year pest-control services agreement with Orkin, a parking-lot construction contract, and a window-restoration contract.

Jeff Nowak presented item 9, a one-year service agreement with Orkin Pest Control for pest control services across county-owned buildings. The contract will be administered through Sourcewell and listed on the agenda at $117,152.40.

Item 10 was a notice of award to Crestline Paving and Excavating for conversion of a county-owned parcel at 3815 West Sylvania Avenue into a parking lot to provide additional parking for voting events. The meeting record shows one bid was received at $1,178,354, which was below the engineer’s estimate; the project had been previously approved in the county’s 2025 capital budget and under a recent amendment (resolution 2025-363 referenced on the agenda).

Item 11 was an award to Berglund Construction for window restoration at 701 Adams St.; two bids were received and Berglund’s winning bid was $450,000. The project scope includes stabilizing broken windows and frames at that county building.

Commissioners had no substantive objections; motions to approve were made and recorded by roll call.
