Commissioners approve three FEMA‑funded RFQs for athletic fields, hazard mitigation and water‑point repairs

Mitchell County Board of Commissioners · February 18, 2026

Summary

County staff described three separate RFQs backed by FEMA: roughly $2 million for athletic‑field restoration and CMAR services, about $1 million for hazard mitigation engineering around creek channels, and approximately $150,000 for water‑point repairs; the board approved each RFQ individually.

County staff presented three FEMA‑funded procurement requests: a CMAR and design package for two washed‑out athletic fields (staff cited approximately $2,000,000 in FEMA funds), a separate RFQ for hazard‑mitigation engineering to stabilize creek banks (about $1,000,000), and a smaller RFQ to assess and repair damaged water points (roughly $150,000). Allen (county staff) described erosion damage where water breached fields and said the procurement steps will allow qualified firms to submit qualifications for later selection.

The board voted on each RFQ separately and approved all three motions. Commissioners noted that qualification processes will return recommendations to the board for final contract selection, and staff said the work will include FEMA‑compliant bid and documentation procedures required for federal reimbursement.
