The Board approved awards for the 2026 Countywide Paving Program during its July 28 meeting. Rieth‑Riley Construction Co. was awarded Item II—work in the Foxwood and Meadow Woods subdivisions and Laurelwood Drive—for a base contract of $1,126,947.70 and a 10% contingency, for a total not to exceed $1,239,642.47.

The Board authorized the Road Department to administer contracts and approve payments upon satisfactory completion of work.
Both awards were approved as part of the consent agenda and carry standard contract administration provisions, including contingency authority for unforeseen work and Chairperson signature following County Attorney approval.
