Kossuth County board moves Smith Lake restoration RFP to bid review
Summary
Kossuth County Conservation Board members heard that staff and the DNR approved an RFP for the consulting phase of the Smith Lake restoration project; bids were issued and are scheduled for review on June 18, 2025.
Stumme, a member of the Kossuth County Conservation Board, told the board on June 10 that staff and the DNR Lake Restoration Program Coordinator had approved a request for proposal (RFP) for the consulting phase of the Smith Lake restoration project and that bid materials had been issued.
The board heard that a pre-bid meeting has been held and that bids will be reviewed on June 18. The update, presented as part of regular project reporting, did not include award decisions or contract amounts; the discussion focused on procurement timing and next steps for the restoration project.
The DNR Lake Restoration Program Coordinator reviewed and approved the RFP language with KCCB staff prior to distribution, Stumme said. No formal motion was recorded on site selection or consultants at the meeting; the RFP review and selection will follow the scheduled bid evaluation.
Next steps: KCCB staff expect to review submitted bids on June 18 and return to the board with recommendations for consultant selection and any funding requests if needed.
