The clerk opened sealed bids at 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 7, 2019, for construction work on the Clinton County Highway Garage Tool Room and read the vendor names and base bid amounts into the record. The bids recorded were Branon Construction Co., Inc., $132,200; Dow Electric Inc., $147,997; and Ametal Construction Corp., $148,600. The opening was noted on the bid-opening sheet as "Opened by: KimbagA Baren" with "Witness: Melody Lemieur."
The bid-opening sheet lists each vendor and its base bid amount. The document header gives the project as "Highway Garage Tool Room" and records the date and time of the opening. The bid security column on the provided sheet was not specified in the transcript. No staff statement awarding or recommending an award appears in the record; the opening served to record the bids received.
Procurement openings typically document receipt of sealed proposals and establish the public record of offers; award decisions and contractor selections are made later after staff review of compliance, required bonds or securities, and bid evaluations. The transcript contains only the bid-opening log and does not include evaluation, motion, or vote related to contract award.
Next steps were not specified on the record provided. The county will likely complete a post-opening review of bids for responsiveness and compliance before presenting a recommendation for award, though a timeline for that review was not given in the transcript.
