The St. Joseph County Board of Commissioners accepted two bids and directed county engineering to review them for award for a resurfacing rehabilitation project identified in the meeting as RNS 902602D. County staff read the bids aloud: Milestone Contractors bid $2,929,000 and Reeth Riley Construction Company of South Bend bid $3,210,681.24. Staff recommended the commissioners accept the bids and forward them to engineering for review and award, a motion the board approved unanimously.
Commissioners recorded affirmative votes during the roll call after the motion. No immediate award was made; the matter will proceed to the county engineering office for technical review and any subsequent recommendation to the board.
The action preserves the bid documents for competitive procurement review and does not itself constitute a contract award. Engineering review will determine whether a formal contract recommendation is returned to the board.
