Adams County opens and acts on multiple construction bids; APAC recommended for Mortar Town Road
Summary
The board opened bids for Parkers Point and Morgantown Road, took them under advisement, and later verified bids and awarded Mortar Town Road Phase 1 to APAC Mississippi; several smaller awards (Foster Mound rail replacement, Foster Mound work) were also authorized.
County staff opened a series of public bids, presented certified bid calculations and recommended actions on several road and park projects during the meeting.
For Parkers Point, staff announced a project budget of roughly $446,428 and opened bids; the low bid recorded was $325,629 from Midway Construction. For Morgantown Road Phase 1 the board recorded two bids and took both bids under advisement.
Engineering staff later presented verified bid results for Mortar Town Road Phase 1 and said APAC Mississippi was the low, responsive bidder at $1,115,154.70 after a competing bidder corrected an apparent bidding error. The board voted to award the Mortar Town Phase 1 contract to APAC pending final approvals.
Staff also reported smaller awards and procurement steps: Foster Mound 3-inch rail replacement received two quotes and the board approved an award to Broken Arrow Construction LLC for $25,000; staff asked members to sign program forms for Kingston Road improvements (2.3 miles, preliminary construction estimate ~$1.315 million) and approved several reimbursement/payment requests related to ongoing projects.
Board action: motions were made to take bids under advisement, to authorize program forms and to award verified contracts; votes carried as recorded in the meeting minutes.
