Cole County opens bids for 2025 asphalt overlay and chip seal programs
Summary
Cole County staff recorded four bids for two 2025 road-maintenance projects — asphalt overlay (2025-501-1) and chip seal (2025-502-1) — and said they will review the submissions and follow up with bidders.
Cole County staff opened and recorded bids for two 2025 road-maintenance contracts: the asphalt overlay project (project number 2025-501-1) and the chip seal program (project number 2025-502-1). County staff read four bids into the record and said they would review the submissions and be in touch with bidders.
The recorded bids for the asphalt overlay included Higgins Asphalt, which submitted a bid of $562,215.13, and Jefferson Asphalt; the transcript did not clearly specify the dollar amount read for Jefferson Asphalt. For the chip seal program, Missouri Petroleum submitted a base bid of $667,791.15 and an alternate of $67,223.90, and Vance Brothers submitted a base bid of $815,065.10 and an alternate of $84,029.88.
No award or formal action was taken at the bid opening. "I will review these bids and be in touch with y'all," the staff member said after reading the final submission. The bids will be reviewed by county staff as part of the procurement process before any contract decisions are made.
The two projects are identified in the record by project numbers 2025-501-1 (asphalt overlay) and 2025-502-1 (chip seal). County officials did not announce contract awards, selection criteria, or a schedule for decision during the recorded bid opening.
Next steps noted in the session: staff will review the bids for compliance and pricing and follow up with bidders; no vote or other formal action was recorded at the meeting.
