Adams County awards $969,104.50 OPWC paving contract, rejects chip‑and‑seal bids
Summary
The board awarded the 2026 OPWC paving contract to Brown County Asphalt for $969,104.50 and later rejected bids for the county’s chip‑and‑seal project following the engineer’s recommendations; both motions passed unanimously.
Chief Engineer Lee Pertuset recommended awarding the 2026 Adams County & Township OPWC paving contract to Brown County Asphalt at a bid of $969,104.50; the commissioners approved the award by unanimous vote on March 30.
At the same meeting the board later rejected bids received for the 2026 Adams County & Township OPWC Chip & Seal Project from Runway Incorporated and SC Construction on Pertuset’s recommendation; that motion also passed unanimously. The minutes record an executive session under ORC 121.22(G)(3) to discuss pending or imminent court action prior to the chip‑and‑seal action.
The board recorded motions, mover/second, and unanimous ayes for both items. The meeting minutes do not specify work schedules or contract start dates; Engineer Pertuset’s recommendation and the board’s votes authorize staff to proceed with final contract paperwork for the paving award and to re‑solicit or otherwise resolve the chip‑and‑seal procurement following the bid rejections.
