Summary

Council awarded Palmetto Safe & Lock $47,723.66 for a fire station access system, Chipley Company $465,719 for District 3 resurfacing, CR Jackson $714,150 for District 9 resurfacing, and CAVCO $33,015.60 for corrugated HDPE pipe; council also declared vehicles, a brush truck and printers/copiers surplus.

Administrator Yoakam presented multiple procurement actions and surplus declarations. The council awarded RFP No. 66‑2324 to Palmetto Safe & Lock for $47,723.66 to supply a fire station card access system funded from CPST3A funds. Yoakam outlined the selection process, noting two compliant proposals and the selection committee’s recommendation.

Council also awarded bid No. 042425 to Chipley Company (Florence) for District 3 resurfacing in the amount of $465,719 and bid No. 052425 to CR Jackson (Darlington) for District 9 resurfacing in the amount of $714,150; both were described as the lowest responsive bidders and recommended by county engineers. Separately, the county awarded a contract for corrugated HDPE pipe to CAVCO, $33,015.60, to repair roads damaged by Tropical Storm Debbie. The council declared several vehicles and 14 printers/copiers surplus for disposal via GovDeals, noting make/model and serial numbers in the agenda packet.

Why it matters: the awarded contracts advance road resurfacing and public-safety infrastructure repairs and create procurement obligations with specific vendors and dollar amounts; surplus dispositions follow county code requiring council approval.
