Bottineau clears procedural hurdle and awards low bid for 2026 street project
Summary
The City of Bottineau approved a resolution finding insufficient protest to the 2026 Street Project and, at a special April 14 meeting, accepted Mayo Construction’s low bid of $885,003.30; the engineer’s estimate had been $1,097,083.00.
The Bottineau City Council on April 6 approved a resolution finding there were no sufficient protests to halt the 2026 Street Project and scheduled bid opening for April 14, 2026. At a special meeting on April 14, representatives from Wold Engineering opened three bids and recommended the council accept the low bid from Mayo Construction for $885,003.30. The council voted to accept the low bid, carrying the motion on a roll call vote.
The April 6 resolution — titled “Resolution of Insufficient Protest for the 2026 Street Project” — formally cleared a procedural barrier so bids could be opened. Wold Engineering handled bid opening and tabulation and told the council the engineer’s estimate for the project had been $1,097,083.00, making the low bid substantially below the estimate.
Council President Seykora moved to accept Mayo Construction’s low bid at the April 14 special meeting; Council Member Fix seconded the motion, and the council approved it.
Next steps noted in council minutes include contract finalization and usual administrative steps following bid acceptance. The minutes do not specify a construction start date, authorized change-order limits, or a signed contract timeline.
