The commissioners awarded two major construction contracts — Bowen Engineering for $5,915,000 for Caisson and control building improvements and Allied Technical Services for $1,622,904 for underwater intake rehabilitation — and approved related equipment estimates and service contracts.
Fayette County commissioners on Oct. 20 approved two large construction contracts recommended by County Engineer Jason Little and authorized several related equipment and service orders.
The board awarded Contract C‑2 (Caisson and Control Building Improvements) to Bowen Engineering, LLC for $5,915,000.00; bids for C‑2 were opened Aug. 27, 2025. The board also awarded Contract C‑1 (Underwater Intake Rehabilitation) to Allied Technical Services for $1,622,904.00; bids for C‑1 were opened Oct. 6, 2025. The awards were made on motion and passed by unanimous roll call: Tony Anderson, aye; James D. Garland, aye; Donald L. Fleak, aye.
Engineer Jason Little is recorded as recommending both awards. The meeting minutes do not record additional debate or bid‑tab details beyond the winning bidders and amounts; subcontracting or financing details were not specified in the record.
Separately, the board accepted smaller estimates and service proposals connected to county utilities and facilities: Engineered Solutions Midwest for a Franklin pump and piping work at the Water Treatment Plant ($15,636.00); Hobart Service to repair the jail dishwasher ($2,143.13); and TOMCO2 Systems for carbon dioxide storage and feed equipment at the Rattlesnake Water Treatment Plant ($24,532.19). Those estimates were authorized on motion with unanimous votes.
The board also approved two service contracts: Remington Electric, LLC to provide electrical labor and travel for county buildings ($85 per man/hour; $120 per hour after 4 p.m. and weekends; $32 trip charge) for Oct. 13, 2025–Oct. 31, 2026; and a contract with Ryan Van Dyke to provide labor at the Fayette County Airport at $22.50 per hour (effective Oct. 20, 2025 until terminated as provided in the agreement). Both motions passed unanimously on roll call.
The meeting minutes do not show additional financing terms, bond authorizations, or change orders tied to the awards; follow‑up procurement documents on file with county administration were referenced.
