Committee approves design contracts, WisDOT agreement and routine vendor motions
Summary
The committee awarded highway and culvert design contracts to Becher Hoppe, approved a WisDOT maintenance agreement and several routine finance motions (vendor vouchers, line-item transfers, salt order); motions carried as recorded.
The Oneida County Public Works & Solid Waste Committee on March 19, 2026, approved a series of procurement and routine financial motions, including design contracts for CTH B and county culvert work, a WisDOT maintenance agreement, and the 2026–2027 salt order.
Design contract awards: Ben Rich reported four proposals for the CTH B highway design project (Becher Hoppe $105,180.00; S.E.H. $111,908.00; Corre $114,730.00; MSA $115,100.00). On a motion by Robb Jensen, seconded by Ted Cushing, the committee awarded the CTH B design contract to Becher Hoppe for a cost not to exceed $105,180.00. The motion carried.
For culvert designs, Rich reported three proposals (Becher Hoppe $22,830.00; Corre $39,800.00; S.E.H. $116,680.00). On a motion by Dan Hess, seconded by Ted Cushing, the committee approved the Becher Hoppe culvert design proposal at $22,830.00. The motion carried.
Agreements and routine motions: The committee approved the WisDOT Local Force Agreement for maintenance on STH 70 (motion by Cushing/Almekinder) and approved vendor vouchers and line-item transfers as presented (motions carried). The committee also approved the 2026–2027 salt order to purchase 2,500 tons, based on a five-year average (motion by Hess/Jensen). A separate sign request for CTH C by Bowen’s Bus Service was postponed after staff reported the requested school bus signs did not meet MUTCD sight-distance requirements; the committee requested further information and postponed action (motion by Jensen/Almekinder).
What happens next: Staff will proceed with contract administration for awarded design work and return any follow-up cost information for postponed sign requests.
