Bullock County Commission OKs $487,206 CDBG paving resolution; work to begin after state approval
Summary
The Bullock County Commission approved a Community Development Block Grant resolution to fund roadway paving, citing a contractor bid of $487,206.25 and a planned start in two to three weeks pending state approval.
The Bullock County Commission voted to approve a resolution required to move forward with a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) roadway paving project.
County Engineer (Speaker 4) told commissioners the county received two bids and that the contractor amount is $487,206.25. He said approving the resolution is a necessary step so the county can obtain state approval and begin work. "It's just a necessary step in order for the county to move forward with this," the engineer said, and staff expect construction to start "sometime the next 2 to 3 weeks" after approvals.
Chair (Speaker 1) called for a motion; a commissioner moved to approve the Bullock County Commission resolution for the development block grant project for roadway improvements, the motion was seconded by Speaker 3, and the commission approved the measure by voice vote.
The resolution was recorded as approved; commissioners did not provide further details in the transcript about the contractor company name, contract award process beyond the two bids, or the precise state office that must sign off.
The commission offered no additional timeline changes beyond the engineer's estimate. Next procedural steps mentioned in the meeting: the county will submit the approved resolution to the state for formal approval before contractors begin work.
