County awards 2026 dust‑control contract; engineer and motion cite slightly different totals
Summary
Sheridan County's engineer reported one bid for the annual dust‑control project and a contract price near $446,800 for roughly 65 miles; the motion to award cited $446,880 while the engineer reported $446,808, a discrepancy flagged for contract paperwork.
County Engineer Ken Mallard said the county publicly advertised the annual dust‑control contract and received a single bid. He told the board the contractor's price rose roughly 5% from last year and stated a total contract price of $446,808 for coverage of about 65 miles of county road.
Commissioner Cummings moved to award the 2026 dust‑mitigation project to Oxford Incorporated and asked the chair to sign contract documents; the motion language cited $446,880 as the contract amount. "Their price did increase from last year's about 5%... So the total contract price would be $446,808," Ken Mallard said on the record. The board approved the motion; staff said contract documents will be cleaned up before signing to reconcile the numeric discrepancy.
