Vigo County approves not-to-exceed $232,000 inspection contract for Hasselberger Bridge (Bridge 205)
Summary
Commissioners approved an hourly, not-to-exceed contract for inspection services on Hasselberger Bridge (Bridge 205) with scheduling dependent on a preconstruction meeting and weather.
Vigo County commissioners on Jan. 21 approved an inspection contract for Bridge 205, known in the record as Hasselberger Bridge, under terms described in the meeting as an hourly contract not to exceed $232,000.
Mister Robbins presented the contract, saying, "This contract is amount $232,000. It's an hourly contract not to exceed. This is for the inspection services for that bridge." County staff member Terry confirmed she had reviewed the contract. A brief clarification in the record showed a speaker repeating the dollar figure with a differing number—"232,000. 132,000"—while the contract was described elsewhere in the meeting as $232,000 not to exceed.
Contract scheduling remains dependent on a preconstruction meeting with the contractor and weather conditions. A county staff speaker said the contractor will likely begin demolition and related work once temperatures moderate ("once we get above 0 a little bit") and that the original contract for construction work is approximately 90 days in duration from the start of construction, indicating the county expects work to be completed in 2025 once initiated.
The commissioners approved the contract by voice vote. No additional conditions or amendments were placed on the contract during the meeting.
