County receives multiple large construction bids for Courthouse Annex and CDC renovation
Summary
Commissioners received large bids for Courthouse Annex roof/repairs (base bids $275,000 and $321,000) and multiple bids for the CDC interior renovation; they authorized awards following engineer/architect scrutiny.
Commissioners reviewed procurement responses for building repairs across several meetings. For the Courthouse Annex roof and related repairs two large bids were received (Central Contracting base bid $275,000 plus a mold remediation allowance; First Jean Construction base $321,000 plus remediation allowance). The Commission voted to receive bids for review and authorized the chairman and architect to proceed with scrutiny and award recommendations.
Separately, bids for interior renovation at the Community Development Corporation (CDC) building were received; AC Bulls Construction submitted the apparent low base bid of $91,500 with specified alternates for additional work. Commissioners authorized receipt and review of bids by the county architect and allowed the chairman to award upon approval.
The Commission also authorized the chairman to secure financing for equipment purchases when bids recommended it, and repeatedly directed that engineering and architectural reviews accompany awards.
