Commissioners award animal-control construction contract to ARC Construction
Summary
The board approved awarding the animal-control construction work to ARC Construction as the low bidder (including both alternates); members discussed alternatives, funding and the coroner's recommended options before the unanimous vote.
The board considered the bid tabulation for the animal-control construction project and discussed whether to include alternatives. The clerk said the low bidder with both alternatives included was ARC Construction; if only the base bid and alternate 1 were selected the low bidder would be Empire Contractors.
A commissioner moved to award the contract to ARC Construction including both alternatives; another commissioner seconded the motion and the board approved the award by voice vote. Commissioners said it was cheaper to include alternatives at time of construction rather than return to add them later.
The board did not provide detailed line-item costs in the public remarks; staff indicated funding was available for the full scope if the board wanted to proceed with both alternatives.
