Indian Hills awards $351,250 paving contract to Flynn Brothers after municipal‑aid hearing
Summary
After a public hearing on Municipal Aid Program funds for street resurfacing, the Indian Hills City Council awarded the 2025 paving contract to Flynn Brothers for $351,250; council members cited the company’s past work and ownership of an asphalt plant. The motion passed in roll call and the minutes record unanimous approval.
The City of Indian Hills City Council on April 16 awarded the 2025 paving contract to Flynn Brothers for $351,250 following a public hearing on the use of Municipal Aid Program funds for street resurfacing.
Attorney Finn Cato opened the hearing under KRS 174.100 and read the legal notice that had been published in the Courier Journal; the notice had listed an in‑person location (Louisville Boat Club) before flooding required a virtual meeting. No members of the public spoke during the hearing, which closed at 6:03 p.m.
Mayor Chip Hancock told the council that five sealed bids were opened at noon and that Flynn Brothers’ bid of $351,250 was $38,299.60 higher than the lowest bid. Council members said they favored Flynn Brothers because the company had performed well previously in Indian Hills, owns its own asphalt plant, is familiar with the city’s streets and is reputable in the region. The contract includes extra‑work pricing of $10 per square yard (or $105 per ton) and a $150 charge per manhole cover.
Attorney Cato read Municipal Order No. 1, Series 2025, to award the contract. Councilor Kay Matton moved to approve Municipal Order No. 1 (with a minor wording change to Section 1); the motion was seconded and the roll call in the minutes lists Mr. Astorino, Mr. Harralson, Ms. Dreisbach, Mr. Hayward, Ms. Dunbar, Mr. Maddox (recorded in the minutes as “Audio”), Mr. Ferguson and Ms. Matton; Mr. Garlove was recorded as absent. The minutes state the motion passed unanimously.
The award authorizes the city to proceed with contracting for resurfacing work under the Municipal Aid Program; the minutes do not specify a contract start date or schedule. The council’s next meeting is scheduled for May 21, 2025 at the Louisville Boat Club.
