Taylor County receives bids for hospital camera‑room renovation and Perry Valley Airport generator project
Summary
County staff read bids for a nuclear medicine camera-room modification project and for an air/fuel and generator project at Perry Valley Airport, and named staff and external reviewers who will evaluate proposals and report back to the board.
The Taylor County Board of County Commissioners received and recorded contractor bids on Dec. 16, 2025, for two separate projects: a nuclear medicine camera‑room modification at a hospital and an air/fuel and generator project at Perry Valley Airport.
Staff reading the packet listed three bidders for the hospital camera‑room modification: Oliver Sperry Renovations (Tallahassee), Childers Construction Company (Tallahassee) and TK Construction Services LLC (Tallahassee). The amounts were read as follows: Oliver Sperry Renovations reported as $120,009.65 (the clerk also cited $120,965 in a subsequent readback), Childers Construction Company at $218,400, and TK Construction Services LLC at $194,250 (also cited once as $194,260). A staff member said Carlos Ferrer (DMH), Sarah Grambling (DMH) and Patricia Sadler (county staff) will review the hospital proposals and return a recommendation to the board.
For the Perry Valley Airport air/fuel and generator project staff recorded bids from Reddy Power (New Orleans) with a base bid of $100,000 and an alternate (alternate 1) cited as $69,000, and GT Electric with a base bid variously read as $107,977 and $107,009.77 and an alternate at $97,009.77. The clerk noted inconsistent phrasing and figures during the readback. The airport bid review team was named as Melody Cox, Ward Kettering, John Collins (Avcon) and the staff member who spoke.
Why it matters: The board has several procurement items to evaluate; staff and an external reviewer (John Collins with Avcon) are assigned to vet technical compliance and cost before formal award or recommendation. The airport project is described in the packet as 100% funded with an FCP grant.
Next steps: Staff and the named review teams will examine proposals and return recommendations to the board; the transcript records public hearing times announced at 6:00 p.m. (hospital project) and 6:05 p.m. (airport project) but does not record the dates for those hearings or any final award decisions in this segment.
