Oconee County awards $457,841 contract for Snows Mill/Lane Creek roundabout
Summary
The Oconee County Board of Commissioners approved a $457,841 construction contract with Sol Construction LLC for a roundabout at Snows Mill Road and Lane Creek Road; county staff said the project should be completed about six months after a notice to proceed.
The Oconee County Board of Commissioners approved a $457,841 construction contract for a roundabout at Snows Mill Road and Lane Creek Road on Tuesday.
County staff said Sol Construction LLC was the lowest responsive, responsible bidder on ITB 25-12-007 and recommended awarding the contract with a not-to-exceed price of $457,841. "This item of business is the bid award for ITB 25-12-007, construction of a roundabout at Snowsmill Road and Lane Creek Road. We received 12 bids. Sol Construction LLC was the lowest responsive, responsible bidder with a bid of 457,841," county staff said during the meeting.
The staff presentation said the project is within the current budget. When asked about schedule, staff said, "I believe we put 6 months completion from notice to proceed to finish. And the contractor is comfortable with being able to build it under traffic and not use a detour." Staff also said a notice to proceed should be issued within about two weeks after contract approval, pending final contract documents.
Commissioners moved and seconded the bid award; the item carried on a voice vote.
The action directs the chairman to execute the necessary documents and authorizes future budget amendments up to the contract amount for the life of the project, per the staff recommendation. No details were provided in the meeting about required traffic-control phasing, utility relocations, or dates when work will affect adjacent properties; those details were not specified in the record.
