Mercer County Board awards $85,003.67 one‑coat seal contract to McLeod Construction
Summary
Board awarded a one‑coat asphalt seal contract to McLeod Construction for $85,003.67 after receiving two quotes; roll call shows the named district members voted in favor on the record.
The Mercer County Board of Education approved a one‑coat asphalt seal contract with McLeod Construction for $85,003.67, the board record shows. Speaker 7 reviewed two bids and recommended the lowest local bidder, noting prior donated work and the ability to respond quickly to district needs.
Speaker 7 explained differences between bids in coverage per gallon (one product covering about 68 square feet per gallon versus 45 for another), cautioned that two lots (the bus/maintenance area) may need fuller resurfacing because the asphalt lacks a final inch‑and‑a‑half top layer, and suggested those areas might be negotiated out of the one‑coat contract.
Speaker 1 motioned to accept McLeod Construction’s one‑coat proposal for $85,003.67; Speaker 2 seconded. The chair called roll: District 1 Amber Francesca (yes), District 2 Amy Hartman (yes), Billy Gover (yes), Cliff Brewer (yes), Ramsey Booker (yes). The vote carried on the record.
Board members also noted plans to phase sealing work (roughly half a building per year) and to follow up on lots where deeper repairs may be necessary.
