An unidentified speaker opened bids for the Tanner Bridal Road replacement, federal project BROR026025 (No. 2023-802-1), and read six offers; staff said the submissions will be evaluated and no award was made at the meeting.
The most recent bid read was from Jean Hale Excavating, at $3,024,942.50. Earlier bids included E and C Bridal, $2,787,959.06; McGruder Construction Company, $3,437,889; Tamira Excavating, $2,314,448.04; Lewis and Company, $6,446,984.42; and Don Schneidert Excavating, $2,122,380.46. Each amount was read aloud by the unidentified speaker during the opening.
Why it matters: public bid openings are the start of a procurement process that typically culminates in a staff evaluation, recommendation and later award. The federal project number listed in the transcript indicates federal funding and related procurement requirements may apply.
What happened next: the unidentified speaker closed the bid reading for the Tanner Bridal Road replacement and said bids will be evaluated; the transcript contains no decision, award, or motion to accept any bid.
The transcript shows some inconsistencies in how certain contractors’ names and numbers were read (for example, alternate spellings of McGruder/Magruder appear in later lines for a different project). The transcript also repeats some numeric strings when amounts were read; the figures above follow the exact dollar amounts read into the record.
