Summary
Fayette County commissioners unanimously awarded a $9,658,865.79 contract to Fillmore Construction for Bluegrass Boulevard Phase III and authorized Stantec for inspection and testing services not to exceed $693,662.
Fayette County commissioners voted Dec. 8 to award the Bluegrass Boulevard Phase III roadway improvements contract to Fillmore Construction of Leesburg for $9,658,865.79, following a recommendation from County Engineer Jason Little. The motion was made by Commissioner James D. Garland, seconded by Commissioner Donald L. Fleak, and carried on a unanimous roll call.
The board also authorized a professional services agreement with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc., to provide construction inspection, administration and material testing for Bluegrass Boulevard Phase III and an unrelated water-and-sewer extension project (Project Galaxy). The contract with Stantec carries a combined not-to-exceed fee of $693,662.
The awards complete the board’s consideration of bids opened on Nov. 24, 2025, for the roadway project. The agenda packet identifies Fillmore Construction as the recommended low bidder and lists the bid amount of $9,658,865.79. County staff said the inspection and testing services are intended to support county oversight during construction.
The board's vote was recorded as 'aye' from Commissioners Tony Anderson, James D. Garland and Donald L. Fleak. The meeting record shows no amendments to the bid award and indicates authority for the engineer to proceed with contract execution and related administrative steps.
The project is expected to proceed under the county engineer’s direction; no completion date or construction schedule was specified in the meeting record.
