Board approves minutes, claims and benefits payments; accepts two oil bids for chip seal and dust control
Summary
Commissioners approved previous meeting minutes, Allied Weekly health claim, accounts payable and benefits payments and accepted bids from Asphalt Materials and KTEC for chip seal, dust control and fog seal products; the Swiss Village 5K road closure was also approved.
The board approved routine administrative and financial items during the meeting.
Minutes and claims: Commissioners approved minutes from the February 25 meeting. The board accepted an Allied Weekly health insurance claim for $5,080.80 (recorded in the meeting as $5,080.80) and approved accounts payable claims totaling approximately $423,009.68 and benefits checks totaling $348,542.89. County staff verified claims and there were no substantive questions from commissioners.
Oil bids for chip seal and dust control: Highway staff opened competitive bids for petroleum products used in chip seal, fog seal and dust control. Two bidders submitted proposals: Asphalt Materials (Indianapolis/Warsaw supply) and KTEC/Bitmap (Ashley). Unit prices presented included AE90 (chip seal oil) and dust control prices; staff recommended accepting both vendors so the county can call either supplier as needed. Commissioners moved, seconded and carried a motion to accept both Asphalt Materials and KTEC bids.
Permits and small items: Commissioners approved a road‑closure request from Swiss Village for an annual 5K run scheduled April 19 (closure of 150 West between 5 South and 218 between about 7:45 and 9:30 a.m.). County staff noted standard resident notifications and barricade placement procedures. The county also reported that buggy plates began selling; nine were sold the first day.
All motions referenced in this section carried; roll‑call tallies were not recorded in the transcript.
