Sheriff asks commission to put 911 facility construction out to bid; commission approves
Summary
Lyon County commissioners authorized putting construction for a new 911 facility out for bid after a presentation by Sheriff Jeff Cope and Roxy Van Gundy of LCECC; the action does not commit the county to an award.
Lyon County Sheriff Jeff Cope and Roxy Van Gundy, representing the Lyon County Emergency Communications Center (LCECC), asked the commission to authorize sending construction of a new 911 facility out for bid.
The board approved the request, noting the motion would only start the bidding process and does not obligate the county to accept any bid. "Motion: To Approve sending the 911 facility construction out for bid," the minutes state, and the motion carried on a 3-0 vote. Commissioners said they have worked with project stakeholders and clarified that approving bids does not equal accepting a contractor.
The approval allows staff to prepare bid documents and proceed with solicitation; the minutes do not include a project budget or a bid timeline.
