Commissioners hold bids for culvert and beds and table landscaping contract
Summary
Morrow County commissioners voted to hold bids from Scioto Valley Recast and Athena Corporation for box culvert materials and beds for review and tabled a landscaping contract discussion after questions about contractor performance.
Morrow County commissioners placed multiple procurement items on hold for further review and tabled consideration of a landscaping contract.
The clerk announced two bids for box culvert materials: Scioto Valley Recast ($70,876) and Athena Corporation ($103,970). Commissioner Siegfried moved to hold the bids for review and the motion was seconded; roll-call assent was recorded. The clerk also announced two bids for beds from the same bidders (Scioto Valley, $74,386; Athena Corporation, $103,360); commissioners again voted to hold bids for review.
Earlier in the meeting, commissioners discussed a landscaping estimate for the Community Services Building for 2026 and whether to continue with the long-time contractor. Concerns about work not being performed to satisfaction led at least one commissioner to move to table that item for further review.
What happens next: Procurement staff will retain the bids for further review and return with recommendations. The landscaping contract will be revisited only after commissioners have had time to review alternatives and performance concerns.
