Jennings County commissioners table reassessment bid award after late delivery of proposals
Summary
County commissioners voted unanimously to table awarding a reassessment bid after staff said the bids arrived too late for review.
Jennings County commissioners unanimously voted to table awarding the county's reassessment bid after county staff said the submitted proposals arrived too late to review.
County auditor (Alex) told commissioners the bids did not reach the auditor's office until Tuesday, leaving insufficient time to review and make a recommendation. "The bids didn't get to me until Tuesday to review, and I haven't had a chance to review them, to make a recommendation," Alex said during the meeting.
Commissioner Randy Shepherd made a motion to table the bid award; the motion was seconded and carried unanimously. No vote counts beyond unanimous were recorded in the meeting transcript. The commissioners did not set a new date for consideration during the meeting.
The tabling means commissioners postponed any formal contract award until staff completes its review and returns with a recommendation. The transcript does not specify which firms submitted proposals, the total contract value, or a new schedule for award.
