County awards combined concrete work for annex sidewalk and public defender's office to local contractor
Summary
After reviewing limited bid responses, the Greene County commissioners awarded combined concrete work for the annex sidewalk and repairs at the public defender’s office to Richard Wagler Construction.
The Greene County Board of Commissioners awarded two concrete projects — repair of the annex sidewalk and work to address water infiltration at the public defender’s office — to Richard Wagler Construction at its Sept. 2 meeting.
Commissioners said bid responses were light. The meeting record includes individual quotes discussed during the deliberation: a quote of $14,875 for the public defender project and $12,725 for the annex sidewalk, with a combined Wagler quote referenced at $18,682 for both jobs. Commissioners agreed it was advantageous to award the two jobs together and approved a motion to award the work to Wagler by voice vote.
Discussion during the meeting noted nearby property constraints, a gas line in an alley that required contractor coordination, and the need to communicate project timing to adjacent property owners. Commissioners said they would coordinate with the property owner and contractors to avoid surprises during construction.
Why it matters: The work addresses aging sidewalk infrastructure at a county building and repairs at the public defender’s office to resolve water infiltration issues. Awarding the contract enables the county to proceed to scheduling and execution.
What happens next: Public Works staff will finalize the contract with Wagler Construction and coordinate access and scheduling with adjacent property owners and affected departments.
