Summary
The Jamaica Select Board on March 23 awarded the Goodleville Road culvert replacement contract to Hunter Excavating, accepting a low bid of $239,815. The board said the project will use a BTRANS grant with remaining costs covered from the town budget.
The Jamaica Select Board voted March 23 to accept Hunter Excavating's low bid of $239,815 to replace two aging culverts on Goodleville Road with a new 6-by-14-foot box culvert.
At the meeting a staff member reviewed five bids and the contractor qualifications. "The 1st 1 that was submitted is... AS Clark and Sons, total bid for AS Clark... $245,840," the staff member read, then listed other offers before saying, "I will make a motion that we accept the bid of Hunter Excavating for 239,815 as the lowest bidder." The chair seconded and the board approved the motion by voice vote.
The staff member said the project is partly funded through a BTRANS grant and that the town budget will cover any remaining costs. Bidders and reported totals presented at the meeting were: AS Clark and Sons ($245,840); Fitzpatrick Excavating ($241,500); Thompson Site Services ($275,200); Belden Construction ($575,000); and Hunter Excavating ($239,815). The board noted bidders met insurance and qualification requirements.
Next steps discussed included coordinating construction season timing and precaster schedules, shop-drawing submittals and permitting. Staff said the successful bidder and town staff will coordinate the start-of-construction schedule once permits and materials are organized.
