Board awards County Road 52 bridge contract; accepts state bridge grant with county match
Summary
The board voted to award the County Road 52 replacement contract to Redstone Construction (low responsive bid $901,223.75) and approved a Local Bridge Replacement Program grant of $729,100 with a county match of about $172,001.
Speaker 9 presented the engineering and procurement results for County Road 52 bridge replacement, noting the low responsive bid from Redstone Construction of Mora, Minnesota, for $901,223.75, about 5% above the engineer’s estimate of $853,000. The board voted to award the contract to Redstone and to accept a Local Bridge Replacement Program grant that provides $729,100 for the project; the county’s estimated share for construction is $172,001.23.
Speaker 9 explained grant paperwork includes a bond-finance property certification (Exhibit C) that requires the county to show rights to the property and to agree not to sell the property for 37.5 years, plus a resolution to accept the funds. The board approved the overall package by voice vote.
What happens next: staff will finalize grant documents and move forward with contracting and required certifications to allow construction during next year’s construction season.
