Summary

The board rejected the single bid for an attorney-client room that exceeded the $10,000 grant and directed staff to re-advertise and seek bids consistent with the available funding.

The board reviewed a bid for an attorney-client room that exceeded the available $10,000 grant allocated for the project. One commissioner moved to reject the single bid and reissue the request for proposals so the project can be completed within budget; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote. Members discussed whether the project is legally required now or could be deferred until additional funds are available.

Staff and commissioners agreed to re-advertise the scope to find contractors who can meet the county's funding envelope and to return any revised proposals to the board for consideration. No contract award was made at the meeting.
