St. Joseph County opens bids and awards multiple small excavation contracts
Summary
At an unnamed St. Joseph County meeting, board members opened bids and approved awards for several local excavation and drainage projects (Cane Ditch/Cambridge, Car Phone Ditch, Potato Creek, Dangerous Gate basin); awards were made by motion and vote and the board set follow-up and procurement dates, including a Nov. 11 proposals opening.
Chair (unnamed) convened the meeting and the board opened multiple bids for local drainage and excavation work, then moved to award several contracts. Early in the session a member read four bids for the Cane Ditch project; a motion was made to award the related 'Cambridge project' for $23,444 and the chair recorded the vote as 'Aye' and 'Motion carried.'
Why it matters: These small excavation and drainage contracts fund routine infrastructure work that affects local drainage, culverts and farm/railroad crossings. The awards authorize contractors to proceed and set expectations for follow-up inspections and scheduling.
