Commission accepts R3 bid of $85,112.22 for three-sided vehicle shelter
Summary
The commission awarded a contract to R3 for a three-sided impound vehicle shelter at $85,112.22, selecting the lowest bid among three respondents to protect seized vehicles from weather and theft.
Rutherford County commissioners voted to accept the lowest bid from R3 to build a three-sided impound shelter to protect seized vehicles from weather and vandalism.
Purchasing staff read the three bids on the record: R3 at $85,112.22, KCS at $92,002.50 and Morton Builders at $125,006.92. Staff noted the structure will be 80 by 16 and include a ceiling to deter bird nesting; the county also discussed security and storage needs for high-value seized vehicles that can remain in county possession for months pending court or administrative resolution.
Commissioner Gooch moved to accept R3’s bid; the motion received a second and passed on roll-call with those present voting in favor. Staff said R3 had prior work with the county and had been the low bidder.
The contract award directs final contract processing to purchasing staff; no additional contingencies were recorded on the floor.
