Board of Public Works awards Stark Street construction contract to low bidder
Summary
The Board of Public Works voted to award the 2026 Stark Street construction contract to the low bidder after reviewing four submitted bids. The low bid was listed at $2,589,960; the board approved the recommendation by voice vote.
Speaker 1, presiding officer of the Board of Public Works, announced that the board opened bids for the 2026 Construction Project A for Stark Street and read four offers before calling for a decision.
The board received bids from Switwick and Sons ($2,589,960), Hassons ($2,658,989.89), A1 Excavating ($2,999,474) and Merrill Gravel and Construction ($3,343,423.66). Speaker 1 moved to approve the low bidder (Switwick and Sons); Speaker 3 seconded. The motion passed by voice vote with board members replying "Aye."
The decision adopts the low-dollar proposal as presented; no amendments or alternate funding sources were discussed during the recorded exchange. The board did not state additional contract start dates or contingency amounts during the public portion of the meeting.
The board’s next procedural step was to enter closed session later in the meeting to consider contractor prequalification statements; the award vote recorded here occurred before that closed-session motion.
