Summary
Chesterfield County Council approved staff’s recommendation to accept Georgia Stone Products’ bid at $13 per ton for the county’s road-material contract; the purchase will be funded from CTC funds.
Chesterfield County Council approved a staff recommendation to accept a bid from Georgia Stone Products at $13 per ton for a county material contract during its Oct. 24 special called meeting.
Staff reported that three bids were received and recommended that council accept the low bid from Georgia Stone Products. Heather Feltz, a staff member presenting the item, told council the purchases will be funded from CTC funds.
Council Member Ford moved to accept the staff recommendation; the motion was seconded by Council Member Price and carried by the council. Council discussion included a question from Price about whether the invitation for bids specified a tonnage package or an open-ended contract. Feltz said the county is handling purchases by dollar amount under the current CTC arrangement rather than a fixed tonnage contract.
The contract award is intended to supply road-material needs and will be financed from CTC funds allocated for such purchases. The staff presentation noted the winning bid rate is $13 per ton and that the county received three bids in total.
No further formal conditions or amendments to the award were recorded in the meeting minutes.
