Addison County opens bids for Field Day 25 12 safety project; staff to review, award pending
Summary
A public bid opening in Addison County recorded bids from Garrett Paving and C.W. Matthews for the 'Field Day 25 12, fiscal year 2026 OPS Systems Safety Project.' County staff said bids will be reviewed and forwarded to commissioners for potential award; one read bid figure in the transcript appears anomalous and will be verified.
Addison County held a public bid opening for the 'Field Day 25 12, fiscal year 2026 OPS Systems Safety Project.' County staff recorded two bids and said they will review the submissions and present a recommendation to the county commissioners, with a possible award to follow.
The first bid, from Garrett Paving, was recorded as received by Lacey Baker at 9:12 a.m.; the amount read aloud in the transcript was $1,043,257.99, as announced by a meeting speaker. The second bid, from C.W. Matthews, was recorded as received by Christina Baxter at 9:28 a.m.; a numeric readback in the transcript lists an amount pronounced as "$909,185,630 and 6¢." That figure is unusually large for this type of project and appears inconsistent with the other entry; county staff said they will verify the paper bids and confirm the correct dollar amounts before any award.
Speakers at the opening said staff will review item quantities and consult the project manager who works with the DSP project before taking a recommendation to the commissioners. No formal award, motion, or vote was recorded in the transcript. Meeting organizers also noted the session was being broadcast on video and offered to provide a morning summary for those who could not watch live.
The transcript presents a discrepancy about the meeting date: one speaker announced 'December 2, 10 a.m.,' while another corrected that the date was 'December 1.' County records or the posted agenda should be consulted to confirm the official date and any deadlines tied to the procurement. The county did not specify funding sources, contract duration, or other procurement conditions in the recorded readout; those details are subject to review during the county's formal evaluation process.
Next steps: county procurement staff will verify bid documentation and quantities, prepare a recommendation for the commissioners, and confirm any award timeline; the transcript did not record a final decision or vote.
