Schley County approves Scruggs bid to resurface Mt. Zion Road; project will consume nearly two years of LMIG funds
Summary
On Jan. 13 the Schley County Board approved Scruggs Company’s bid to resurface Mt. Zion Road, a project county staff said will use almost two years of Local Maintenance and Improvement Grant (LMIG) funds and delay work on Candy Cane Lane.
The Schley County Board of Commissioners voted Jan. 13 to accept a bid from Scruggs Company to resurface the resurfacing portion of Mt. Zion Road. Commissioner Barineau moved to approve the bid; Commissioner Jones seconded the motion and the vote was unanimous.
County Manager Douglas Jamieson said the cost of the work on Mt. Zion Road will use almost two years of the county’s LMIG (Local Maintenance and Improvement Grant) funds. Commissioner Harrison noted the higher cost reflects the scale of rebuilding the road and said there may be supplemental LMIG funds available.
Jamieson told commissioners that as a result of the Mt. Zion project, work on the next scheduled road, Candy Cane Lane, will be delayed. Vice Chairman Belcher asked for an estimate to extend paving up the hill where a dirt portion of Mt. Zion Road has been rebuilt under the Golden Triangle project; Commissioner Barineau recommended checking with Golden Triangle to ensure paving would not conflict with their work.
The board did not discuss dollar amounts for the winning bid during the public portion of the meeting. Next steps include finalizing scheduling and coordination with the Golden Triangle project to avoid duplicate work.
The board approved the motion to accept Scruggs Company’s bid by a unanimous vote.
