Jonesboro committee agrees to forward contract with Bailey Contractors for 9-1-1, real-time crime center to full council
Summary
A Jonesboro committee moved to forward a resolution authorizing an agreement with Bailey Contractors Inc. to provide construction management services for a 9-1-1 and real-time crime center at West Washington Avenue; funding is planned from capital improvement revenue bonds.
A City of Jonesboro committee on Monday moved to forward to the full City Council a resolution authorizing an agreement with Bailey Contractors Incorporated to provide construction management services for a 9-1-1 and real-time crime center project on the 400 block of West Washington Avenue.
Committee chair (speaker 2) read the resolution, which says the selection committee found Bailey Contractors “the most qualified firm” and that the cost of the construction management services will be paid from the capital improvement revenue bonds budget. The resolution also authorizes the mayor and city clerk to execute all documents necessary to effectuate the agreement.
The committee entered a motion to forward the item to full council; the motion was seconded and confirmed to be sent to a subsequent council meeting for final action. No additional fiscal figures or a detailed contract price for construction management were provided during the committee discussion.
The committee did not take a final approval vote on the contract at the meeting; the resolution will return to the City Council for consideration and potential adoption.
Looking forward, the council agenda packet for the full meeting should provide the agreement terms, scope of services, and exact payment schedule referenced in the resolution.
