Council accepts low local bid for required archaeological study before lagoon work
Summary
Council discussed a required archaeological study tied to lagoon work; a local company bid $16,695 (within the budget of $70,000) and the council approved awarding the work to the local bidder.
Chair reported that an archaeological study is required before proceeding with the lagoon project and that bids were solicited. She said a local company submitted a low bid of $16,695 while another contractor bid $61,000; the available budget for the study is $70,000.
Given the local bid was substantially lower than the alternative and within the budgeted amount, the council moved to accept the local contractor's proposal so the study and related DEQ updates can proceed. Chair noted the funding for this study comes from budgeted project dollars and that staff will follow up to lock in the bid and schedule the work.
