Summary

The board awarded Division 1 (Stevens Road CCMG paving) to Milestone Contractors LP for $176,771.48 and approved proceeding pending additional engineering review.

The La Porte Board of Works awarded the Division 1 portion of the 2025 CCMG paving project — Stevens Road (city portion) — to Milestone Contractors LP for $176,771.48 and authorized staff to proceed pending final engineering review.

Nick Minnick, engineering staff, opened the bid process and presented two bids for Division 1 (CCMG paving) and Division 2 (miscellaneous patching/paving). Milestone Contractors submitted a Division 1 bid of $176,771.48 and a Division 2 bid of $384,750.00. Reith-Riley Construction submitted a Division 1 bid of $228,654.98 and a Division 2 bid of $503,150.00.

Minnick said Division 1 covers the city portion of Stevens Road; the county had previously committed to paving the county portion but that responsibility now lies with the new county commissioner. He recommended awarding Division 1 to Milestone to meet project timelines and grant deadlines. "I would ask that we at least begin by awarding division 1 to Milestone," he said.

The board approved the motion to award Division 1 to Milestone Contractors for $176,771.48 subject to additional engineering review. Staff noted the award allows work to proceed so the city meets Community Crossings Matching Grant (CCMG) submission and timeline requirements and to remove the city's last dirt road segment.

The board recorded the award by voice vote and asked staff to follow up on coordination with county paving where adjacent stretches require intergovernmental coordination.
