Summary
On March 5 the Knox County Board of Commissioners approved a letter supporting Ohio Heart of Ohio Trail funding, approved two Columbia Gas utility permits, and opened bids for the Cosing Gap trail resurfacing project; the clerk will tabulate bids and return recommendations.
The Knox County Board of Commissioners on March 5 approved a letter of support to Representative Lear and Senator Brener for a capital‑budget community project grant for the Ohio Heart of Ohio Trail and approved two Columbia Gas utility permits (Green Valley Road in Morris Township and McLaren/Union Street in Clay Township).
Motions to approve the letter and each permit were made and seconded; commissioners voted "I." No roll‑call tallies with names were read into the transcript.
The meeting paused to open bids for the Cosing Gap Trail resurfacing project. Several bids were read aloud and the clerk said she would prepare a bid tabulation and recommendation. Readable bid amounts in the transcript included $1,196,741.75, $955,601.45 and $929,941.35; the clerk noted the engineer's estimate of $1,398,850. One bid line in the spoken record was garbled and could not be transcribed clearly; the clerk will supply a formal tabulation.
Commissioners did not award the contract at the March 5 meeting; staff will tabulate and forward a recommendation for later action.
