County commissioners talk road and bridge, public health
The Saline County board of commissioners had plenty to discuss during Tuesday s meeting, as there was controversy in deciding between contractors for a road and bridge project.
County engineer Justin Mader presented two bids for the commission to review and discuss, before deciding which one shall take the upcoming bituminous crack sealing project.
Wolverine Paving and Sealcoating submitted one for $55,710 and Pavement Pro’s submitted theirs for $152,230.
Mader noted that the low bid initially did not consider the process of routing, which the road and bridge department required, and their materials did not match the specifications listed.
