Board awards road‑aggregate contract to Bruning after public hearing; lowest bids reported

Buchanan County Board of Supervisors · February 2, 2026

Summary

After a public hearing and two competitive bids for road aggregate/tonnage, the board awarded the contract to Bruning (low bidder) for division‑one and division‑two tonnage; division‑one total approx. $841,425.50, division‑two approx. $842,515.

At a public hearing on county road material bids, staff read two formal bids for division one and division two tonnage. The low bidder was Bruning with division‑one total $841,425.50 (unit price $15.439) and division‑two total $842,515 (unit price $15.459); the competing bid from BMC Aggregates listed higher unit prices ($15.71) and higher totals. After closing the public hearing and asking for comments from the public, a supervisor moved to award the work to Bruning. "I'll repeat my motion. I'd like to award to Bruning with the low bid of 15439 and 15459 for the southern," a board member stated, and the motion carried.

The board instructed staff to document the award and return appropriate contract papers for signatures. The award followed the county's public‑hearing procurement step and will proceed with contract execution consistent with bid documents.
