Commission authorizes SWAT building low bid; rescinds some jail contracts and clears way for food‑service bids
Summary
The commission awarded the SWAT storage building base bid to Goodgame Construction ($529,128) pending review; it rescinded a jail dietician contract and a Summit Food contract and authorized the sheriff to solicit bids for jail food service; county attorney recommended Cadmus EMR for jail medical records subject to review and—per meeting comments—the subscription will be paid by the medical services provider.
Commissioners considered several sheriff‑office and jail‑related items. They awarded bid number 2026‑36 for a sheriff's SWAT storage building to Goodgame Construction as the lowest responsible base bid of $529,128, subject to county attorney review and availability of funds. "We did receive 3 good bids ... and Goodgame Construction was the lowest responsible bid," the chair said; the motion to award the base bid passed.
On jail contracts, the commission voted to rescind a contract for a dietician approved on 04/22 and rescind the Summit Food contract approved 04/14. Commissioners then authorized the sheriff to solicit bids for a food‑service vendor for the jail. The county attorney also described an upcoming contract for electronic medical records software (Cadmus) for jail medical records and asked that the commission consider approval subject to his review; he said the subscription cost would be borne by the medical services provider (3C South), though he did not specify a dollar amount.
Staff emphasized that rescissions and re‑bidding will be followed by review of new bids and contracts; motions on the rescinds and solicitation carried by voice vote.
