Clinton County commissioners approve construction payouts, contracts and take resurfacing bids under advisement
Summary
At its Feb. 4 meeting the Clinton County Board of Commissioners approved two construction payouts, multiple contracts and permits, took county-managed road resurfacing (CCMG) bids under advisement and approved routine claims and payroll; all formal votes recorded as 3-0.
The Clinton County Board of Commissioners on Feb. 4 approved multiple payments and contracts related to courthouse and annex construction, authorized county staff to sign a vehicle lease subrecipient agreement, approved an architectural contract for the fairgrounds and took county-managed road resurfacing (CCMG) bids under advisement. All recorded votes on those items were unanimous, 3-0.
The actions were largely procedural approvals needed to continue construction and administrative operations. Commissioners voted to approve two construction payouts: $122,496.48 for courthouse construction work and $634,451.19 for annex construction. They also approved a third-party lease service agreement for Paul Philippi (one signature block for the county), and a $10,500 contract with KJG Architectural Inc. to provide state design release documents required to advance work at the fairgrounds.
Commissioners also voted 3-0 to approve two temporary sign placements: one for Faith Family Church (men's conference, event date March 8) and one for St. Mary's Night of Columbus annual fish fry (three signs, 40 days). The county approved renewal of its antivirus subscription at $4,331 and approved January claims and payroll figures presented at the meeting. Minutes from the Jan. 21 meeting were approved 3-0.
In a separate procedural action early in the meeting, the board opened and read a set of CCMG resurfacing bids and moved to take those bids under advisement and consult with county counsel before making a selection at the next meeting; that motion carried 3-0.
