On August 16, 2017 quotations were received at Engineering & Public Works for the US 21 and Verhoeff Dr. Improvement Project. This project makes necessary improvements on US 21 as required by the newly constructed Parks and Recreation facility located on Verhoeff Drive.
The following is a list of contractors invited to submit quotations: Blythe Construction, Inc., Country Boy Landscaping, Inc., Granite Contracting, Pedulla Excavating and Grading, and Ferebee Corporation. Based on current workloads and the necessity to perform this project during nighttime hours, only two contractors elected to submit quotations. The following lump sum quotations were received:
Blythe Construction, Inc - $240,000.00

It is my recommendation that the project be awarded to the lowest responsible quote provider, Blythe Construction, Inc., with a lump sum quotation of $240,000.00.
