Danbury City awards annual paving contracts to Asphalt Repair Solutions and American Paving Specialists
Summary
The Board of Awards approved unit-price contracts for paving and road reclamation, awarding work to Asphalt Repair Solutions (low bidder) and American Paving Specialists (second low) after a six-bid analysis; awards are contingent on contract execution.
The Danbury City Board of Awards approved awards for annual unit-price paving and related services to Asphalt Repair Solutions and American Paving Specialists after reviewing six bids and a staff analysis of recent quantities and 2026 projected needs.
Purchasing agent Chip Volk described the annual unit-price procurement and said the city received six bids. Tim Nolan's analysis used a three-year average of actual quantities and 2026 projections to determine low and second-low bidders. Based on that analysis, Asphalt Repair Solutions was identified as the low bidder and American Paving Specialists as the second-low bidder for both paving and road reclamation categories.
A board member moved to award contracts to both firms to ensure scheduling flexibility given a heavy work season; the motion was seconded. Staff noted the city had used two contractors in prior years for similar reasons. The board voted and the chair recorded the motion as carried unanimously with one member absent.
The awards are contingent on contract execution and completion of standard procurement steps. Board members briefly noted an absence (member Brenda) during the vote.
What happens next: staff will finalize contracts with the two vendors and proceed with planned 2026 paving season operations once contracts are executed.
