Silver Creek trustees award $206,831 Baker Avenue contract, authorize maintenance hire and second township attorney
Summary
The board voted to accept Kurilla Contracting's low bid of $206,831 for the Baker Avenue project (3-0-1). Trustees also approved a $35-per-hour job offer for a maintenance candidate and retained Town Law Center as a second township attorney to work on easements related to the Baker project.
The Silver Creek Township Board of Supervisors accepted the lowest bid for the Baker Avenue project and approved related personnel and legal actions during its March 3 meeting.
Supervisor Nelson moved and Vice Chair Geyen seconded a motion to award the Baker Avenue contract to Kurilla Contracting for $206,831.00; the motion carried 3-0-1. The minutes record the vote count but do not specify which board member abstained. The board also authorized hiring Town Law Center as a second township attorney to work on easements and project-related issues as described in an e-mail presented to the board; that motion carried 4-0.
On personnel, the board approved a job offer for Candidate 4 at $35 per hour with a six-month probationary period (motion carried 4-0) and approved, also 4-0, offering the same terms to Candidate 3 if Candidate 4 declines. Trustees noted the township may hire a second maintenance worker in the next 6–12 months because of a likely retirement in April 2027.
The board recorded no immediate start dates or contract-execution details in the minutes; the motions authorize staff to proceed with contracting and hiring steps consistent with the township's procurement and personnel practices. The meeting adjourned at 9:14 p.m.
