Summary
Franklin County approved an agreement with developer Sam Smith to improve and pave 2200 East to the north end of Cottonwood Estates for a not-to-exceed amount of $207,000, with work to be completed in the 2026 season.
Franklin County commissioners agreed to a not-to-exceed $207,000 agreement with developer Sam Smith to improve and pave 2200 East from East Oneida to the north end of the Cottonwood Estates subdivision.
Director Troy Moser distributed the draft agreement and explained variations in asphalt depth make exact estimates difficult. County Attorney Vic Pearson asked that the contract remove wording describing the amount as an "estimated amount." The parties agreed to strike "estimated" and set a specific not-to-exceed figure of $207,000, with each party initialing the change. Commissioners voted unanimously to sign the agreement; the work is to be completed during the 2026 construction season.
The agreement resolves responsibility for paving the stretch and sets a firm maximum cost to avoid later disputes over the contractor's final invoice.
