Adams County commissioners approved execution of a locally funded $1,397,476.04 contract for the 700 South reconstruction project, covering the corridor between County Road 27 and County Road 150.
County staff member Brad presented the contract and said the bid amount equals the contract price of $1,397,476.04. He described the project scope: new storm drainage and catch basins, curb and gutter, road widening and slope adjustments where the road meets State Road 27. Brad told commissioners the contract covers the full project (including paving, which will likely be subcontracted) and that the City of Burns has agreed to pay for the sidewalk portion of the work.
Commissioners moved to sign the contract officially at the meeting to allow the contractor to schedule work, with the county expressing a preference to begin construction next summer. The motion to approve the contract and authorize signatures passed.
Provenance: The 700 South contract amount, scope and motion to sign are discussed beginning with staff’s presentation of the contract and concluded when commissioners approved the motion to sign.
