Smith County accepts conditional $43,840 bid for pier work on 140 Road bridge
Summary
Smith County Commissioners accepted L & M Construction's $43,840 bid to construct piers for the 140 Road bridge between E Road and F Road on the condition that existing stringers can be reused; the motion carried unanimously.
County project manager Jordan Dettmer opened bids for pier construction on the bridge at 140 Road between E Road and F Road. Bids were: Reece Construction $72,933.32 and L & M Construction $43,840.00; Dettmer said his internal estimate for the project was $56,500.00.
Commissioners pressed staff and bidders about whether existing stringers could be salvaged. L & M Construction agreed to a conditional acceptance allowing the county to determine reuse of stringers after demolition. On a motion by Commissioner Kurt Ifland, seconded by Commissioner Brady Peterson, the board unanimously accepted the L & M Construction bid of $43,840.00 on the condition that the stringers can be reused. Contract start must occur by December of this year and the contractor must give 30 days’ notice before beginning work, per Dettmer’s summary of project requirements.
