Commission approves Rufus Johnson Associates contract for Highway Garage with added protections
Summary
After a failed motion to defer, commissioners approved the contract with Rufus Johnson Associates for the Cheatham County Highway Garage on George Boyd Road, adding indemnification, limitation of liability, and confidentiality terms; vote 10–2.
The Legislative Body approved a contract with Rufus Johnson Associates to design the Cheatham County Highway Garage on George Boyd Road after debate and an earlier failed attempt to defer consideration.
Commissioner Gary Binkley moved to defer the contract for 30 days, but that motion failed on a roll call (6 yes, 5 no, 1 abstain). A subsequent motion by Tim Williamson, seconded by David Anderson, approved the contract with three added items: indemnification, limitation of liability, and confidentiality/public records requirements. The final roll call vote approving the contract was 10 yes, 2 no.
The contract approval was recorded as Resolution 10. The transcript does not provide the contract dollar value; commissioners added the three conditions during the approval motion.
