Board approves $43,000 design agreement to ready streets for NDOT-funded paving package
Summary
The board approved a $43,000 engagement with 1st Group to prepare design and bid documents so the city can pursue a CCMG paving package when NDOT funding is available.
City staff told the board that the Indiana Department of Transportation (NDOT) identified additional funding for the city’s CCMG package and advised the city to assemble bid-ready documents. Staff proposed hiring 1st Group to produce the design and bid package for $43,000 so the city can move immediately to bid when grant funds are allocated.
A staff member described the scope as generating a set of plans and assisting with the bidding process for paving and restoration work. The board moved and approved the recommendation to authorize the 1st Group agreement so the work can be put out to bid as soon as funding is confirmed.
The approval was framed as a preparatory step: the funds would pay for engineering and bid documents, not for construction; work would proceed to bidding once the city receives a formal award notice.
