Bradford Exempted Village board approves $56,764.75 contract for access road and parking lot

The Bradford Exempted Village board approved a contract with Walls Brothers Asphalt not to exceed $56,764.75 to construct an access road and parking lot for a new steam building at its meeting. Committee member presented the item as the lone agenda matter and said the bid was the lowest of three.

The approval followed a motion and roll-call votes. Chair called for a motion to approve the contract, which was moved and seconded. The board recorded affirmative votes from Mister Biesecker, Mister Manuel, Missus Hill and Missus Brewer, and the motion passed.

The committee member who introduced the item described the scope and cost: “acceptance of the Walls Brothers Asphalt, contract for a access road and parking lot to the new steam building, not to exceed $56,764.75,” and added that the work is to be completed before Oct. 1. The member also said the bid represented the lowest of three proposals the board reviewed.

The measure was processed as a straightforward procurement item; the transcript does not record discussion of financing sources, contract terms beyond price and completion date, or any objections. No amendments or conditions were recorded. After the vote, members exchanged brief closing remarks and the meeting proceeded to informal comments.

The transcript does not specify the name of the motion mover or seconder beyond the verbal confirmations recorded in the meeting, nor does it list funding sources for the project.
