Commissioners direct counsel to pursue changes after quarry tonnage discrepancy
Summary
County Counselor reported Martin Marietta could not find records of contracted rock deliveries; the company agreed to honor tonnage retroactively and the Board asked counsel to add 2,500 tons for 2020–2025 and standardize language across quarry contracts, including a provision for 250 tons per mile annually and reimbursement for haul-route dust control.
County Counselor Todd Luckman told the Board he had inquired about records showing the county received a contracted 500 tons of rock from the Soldier quarry and that Martin Marietta found no such records. Luckman said Martin Marietta agreed to honor the tonnage retroactively. The Board asked Luckman to add an additional 2,500 tons to the contract for 2020–2025 and to revise language in both quarry contracts so they match and are alike.
The Board instructed Luckman to draft contract language that each quarry will provide 250 tons of rock per mile of haul route annually and to reimburse the county for dust-control costs along haul routes instead of charging the county a $0.15-per-ton maintenance fee. The changes were framed as administrative adjustments to ensure parity between quarry contracts and to clarify haul-route responsibilities.
