Spencer County Fiscal Court approves $528,955 contract for new animal shelter
Summary
At a Jan. 24 special meeting, the Spencer County Fiscal Court voted unanimously to award a $528,955 construction contract to WPC Construction for a new approximately 3,100-square-foot animal shelter; meeting materials describe the building scope and mechanical requirements.
The Spencer County Fiscal Court voted on Jan. 24, 2024 to award the animal shelter construction contract to WPC Construction for $528,955.
The motion to award the contract was made by County Judge Executive Jim Travis and seconded by Esq. Cotton; all members present voted "Aye." The meeting minutes list the vote as unanimous among members present and note that Esq. Stump had been excused earlier in the meeting.
The meeting packet includes WPC Construction’s written proposal, which describes an approximately 3,100-square-foot block building with a pole-barn cover, kennel walls, office and vet areas, a heated storage room, a concrete slab, trench drains for kennels, hollow metal doors, and a 40-by-48-foot plus 48-by-24-foot pole barn. The proposal specifies plumbing and electrical scopes, a 400-amp stub service, HVAC sized to meet animal-shelter air-exchange code (the proposal notes shelter HVAC is roughly five times residential cost), and a $528,955 total price.
County minutes do not specify funding source or a construction start date. The record lists the contractor’s proposal in the packet (W.P.C Company, Inc., proposal pages included in the minutes) and records the formal motion and vote; no amendments or alternate motions were recorded.
Next procedural steps were not specified in the minutes distributed with the packet. The minutes direct readers to the fiscal court meeting video for additional detail.
