Summary

Commissioners approved a consent-item award to Fusion Electric to replace the rotating beacon at the South Lewis County Airport after the county received four responsive bids; the low bid was $57,241.08.

At the Lewis County Board of County Commissioners business meeting on Tuesday, May 27, the board approved as a consent-item action awarding the South Lewis County Airport rotating beacon replacement contract to Fusion Electric for $57,241.08.

Public Works Director Jeff Soderquist told the commissioners the call for bids was posted April 16 and that the county received four responsive and responsible bids. "The lowest being from Fusion Electrical out of Castle Rock for $57,241.08, and we recommend awarding to Fusion Electric," Soderquist said.

Why it matters: The rotating beacon is part of the airport’s visual aids for pilots; replacing an inoperable or outdated beacon supports continued operations at the South Lewis County Airport.

The award was approved as part of consent items when a commissioner moved to approve resolutions including 25-149. The motion was seconded and commissioners voted "Aye"; the minutes record the motion as passing 3-0.

The transcript does not identify which commissioner moved or seconded the approval, and no further discussion or amendments of the procurement were recorded at the meeting. The county will proceed with contract award to the recommended bidder.
