Commissioners sign notice to proceed for Cold Creek Bridge contract
Summary
The board authorized a notice to proceed with Sentry Companies for the Cold Creek Bridge project; documents discussed a combined project cost in the $1.5–1.8 million range and a demolition/installation timeline beginning the week of Aug. 5.
Commissioners reviewed contract documents for the Cold Creek Bridge project and authorized staff to sign the notice to proceed for the awarded contractor, Sentry Companies. Meeting materials and discussion referenced a combined project cost discussed during the meeting in the $1.5–1.8 million range; an earlier structure payment of roughly $200,000 was noted separately for the bridge structure and associated concrete deck.
Staff said the contractor planned to begin demolition the week of Aug. 5 and that preconstruction meeting minutes and a schedule had been circulated. Commissioners asked about guard rails, bridge width (discussed as 24–28 feet) and surfacing (concrete deck plus crushed aggregate base) and confirmed that approach work and surfacing details were included in the contract documents.
By motion and unanimous voice vote, the board authorized signing the notice to proceed and completing the contract paperwork. Commissioners noted they had received contract copies for the county file and asked staff to confirm pickup logistics and contractor start dates.
No formal change orders or additional funding approvals were made at the meeting beyond authorizing the notice to proceed on the existing contract; commissioners asked staff to return with any budget amendments if additional county funds are required.
