Council approves contract with Plano Brothers Crushing for 2027 concrete crushing
Summary
Council authorized the city manager to execute a contract with Plano Brothers Crushing LLC for 2027 concrete crushing services after staff explained a cooperative procurement with the county produced sharply reduced per-ton pricing (about $4/ton).
The council approved a resolution authorizing the city manager to execute a contract with Plano Brothers Crushing LLC for 2027 mobile concrete crushing services. Staff described collaborating with the county on a combined procurement that attracted multiple mobile-crushing bidders; the result produced substantially lower pricing compared with prior years.
"So this year, we decided to do something different...we put 2 contracts together, worked together, went up for 1 kind of quote bid...And we're down to $4," staff said, describing the joint procurement and reported per-ton pricing. Council moved and approved the resolution by voice vote; staff said the contract would support alley and road projects and that savings were due to competitive mobile-crushing bids.
