Summary
The county authorized advertisement of a design-build solicitation for a new softball field at the Fort Smith Civic Sports Complex with an estimated total cost of $483,000 and a required completion date of April 2026.
Taylor County commissioners approved design-build documents and authorized advertisement for a design-build contract for a new softball field at the Fort Smith Civic Sports Complex. Staff presented the design-build package and said the total project estimate is $483,000 and that the county requests bidders to separate costs for each project element so the county can prioritize elements (for example, shade structures) if full funding is not available.
Staff emphasized tight timelines: the project must be complete by April 2026. Commissioners asked no substantive questions and voted to authorize advertisement for the design-build procurement.
Ending Staff will advertise the design-build solicitation and pursue award consistent with county procurement rules and the project timeline.
