Clay County commissioners approve bids, invoices and surplus disposals in routine business
Summary
The Clay County Commission voted unanimously on a series of routine items including a low bid award to SFC Civil Constructors, multiple invoices, vouchers, a replat for Greenfield Road and authorization to surplus several items.
Clay County commissioners voted unanimously to approve a low bid for a construction contract, several vendor invoices, a replat in Beresford and the disposal of surplus property during their regular meeting.
The board approved the low bid of $218,811.20 from Journey Group companies doing business as SFC Civil Constructors after commissioners indicated no objections. The motion passed with all present members voting in favor.
Why it matters: The votes clear several routine county procurement and maintenance items from the agenda, allowing contracted work and routine payments to proceed as planned.
The commission also approved these motions during the session: - Approval of an invoice from Ultag (listed in the record as for Clay Creek Ditch). Motion passed unanimously. - Approval of an invoice from Complete Excavation for work on the Yankton Clay Ditch (culvert replacement). Motion passed unanimously. - Payment of an invoice described in the record as “fleet excavation” with an amount transcribed as $5.31; commissioners moved and approved payment. - Authorization to surplus several items — including bicycles and firearms the court had cleared for disposal — and to include those items in an April county surplus sale coordinated with Gerard Auction. Motion passed unanimously. - Approval of a replat for property on Greenfield Road in Beresford for estate-planning purposes. The commission noted easements and that planning and zoning signatures needed to be fully completed on the packet. Motion passed unanimously. - Approval of vouchers presented at the meeting. Motion passed unanimously.
All motions recorded in the public transcript passed with unanimous voice votes; minutes show commissioners responding “Aye” when asked. No roll-call nay votes or abstentions were recorded in the transcript.
