Summary

After reviewing CCMG paving bids opened April 28, 2025, the board noted nearly a $30,000 difference among bids and awarded the project to the lowest responsive bidder (a Bloomington firm), citing procurement rules to select the lowest responsible proponent.

The Board reviewed CCMG paving project bid submittals that were opened at the April 28, 2025 meeting. The Chair said bids differed by almost $30,000 and emphasized the city's obligation to award to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder. "You have to work to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder," the Chair said while explaining the recommendation to select the low bidder.

A motion to award the CCMG paving contract to the low bidder (identified in the meeting as a Bloomington firm) was made and seconded; the board approved the motion by voice vote. The award completes the procurement step and will move the project toward pre-construction planning and oversight.
