Summary

Public Works reported only one bid for the Omega–Eldorado overflow bridge replacement: Southern Concrete Company at $1,252,017.28. Staff recommended an addendum for contract administration and placement of the notice of award on the Nov. 10 consent agenda.

County Manager Jim Carter and Public Works Director Jason Jordan told the Tift County Board of Commissioners on Nov. 4 that only one bid was received for the Omega–Eldorado overflow bridge replacement project. The single bid, from Southern Concrete Company, totaled $1,252,017.28. Carter said staff recommends an addendum to the Watkins & Associates LLC contract for engineering/contract administration and placement of the notice of award and contract agreement on the Nov. 10 consent agenda.

Jordan characterized the presentation as a request for routine consent-agenda placement rather than a final approval at the work session. The board did not take a vote; the Nov. 10 Regular Session will be the first occasion for formal board action.

The work session record notes only one bid was received for the project; the transcript does not include discussion of alternate funding sources or a contingency plan should the Regular Session decline to approve the award.
