Tunica County accepts single bid from TK Elevator for courthouse/arena elevator; approves interior finish alternate
Summary
The board accepted a single bid from TK Elevator Corporation for elevator work — base bid $203,413 with Alternate 1 for interior finishes at $26,100 — and approved a 60‑month service agreement for elevators serving multiple county buildings.
Tunica County supervisors accepted a single bid from TK Elevator Corporation and approved the associated alternate to replace an elevator, and later approved a related maintenance agreement.
At the meeting staff opened bids for the project; county documents presented said the only bid received was from TK Elevator Corporation (bid identifier CR01164SC) with TK’s base bid of $203,413 and Add Alternate 1 for interior finishes priced at $26,100. A project architect identified in the agenda packet, Maggie Shagorn, was present for questions from the board.
Board members asked clarifying questions about the alternate, and the architect said the alternate covered interior finishes — “the floor and the walls and the ceiling would be replaced,” per the architect’s description in the meeting record. The board first voted to accept the bid and then voted to approve the base bid and Alternate 1; the chair called the vote, "All in favor? Aye." The board also later approved a separate 60‑month “platinum” service agreement with TK Elevator Corporation at $2,152.03 per month to service multiple county lifts, as listed in the agenda packet.
The actions recorded in the minutes do not show named individual votes; the chair announced the motions carried after the affirmative voice votes. The accepted bid and the maintenance agreement will advance to contract execution steps as outlined in county procurement procedures.
