Port Barre accepts $3,185 bid to demolish 133 Josie Street; two other demolition openings cancelled
Summary
Councilors canceled two demolition bid openings after owners opted to handle demolition themselves, opened bids for 133 Josie Street, and unanimously awarded the job to Bayou State Containers, LLC for $3,185.
Mayor John P. Ardoin told the council that two scheduled bid openings — for demolition of 223 Beauxis Drive and 129 Josie Street — were cancelled because the property owners are proceeding with demolitions themselves.
Town Clerk Toria V. Comeaux opened bids for demolition of 133 Josie Street. The bids recorded in the transcript were Daniel K. Soileau, LLC for $4,000.00; Bayou State Containers, LLC for $3,185.00; and Collins Property Maintenance, LLC for $5,320.00. On a motion by Sammy W. Hardy II, seconded by Ronnie Kimble, the council accepted the Bayou State Containers bid of $3,185.00; the motion passed unanimously.
The meeting also included routine department updates and a public comment from Chris Myers, who said he intends to renovate and reuse the old Methodist Church property. The council adjourned following acceptance of financial and departmental reports.
