The Whittaker Street project has hit a snag, being delayed a bit due to a decision by Shawnee City Commissioner to reject the three submitted bids.
Last month, Public Works Director Brad Schmidt brought three submitted bids to Shawnee City Commissioners for the city s planned Whittaker Street Rehabilitation project, when the item was deferred to allow time for assessment of the bids.
This week City Engineer Seth Barkhimer urged commissioners to reject the bids; the board chose to favor his request, voting unanimously to reject the bids.
Bids
In March Schmidt said the city had estimated cost for the project around $500,000 about $134,000 less than the lowest bid that came in.
