On December 3, 2025, sealed bids were opened and nine (9) bids were received as follows:
Total Maintenance Erosion Control - Base Bid = $815,568
Perco Rock, Co. - Base Bid = $876,830.70
Groundwater Partners - Base Bid = $886,668

Sunland Asphalt - Base Bid = $1,134,966
Lincoln Construction - Base Bid = $1,175,444.40

The apparent low bid, Total Maintenance Erosion Control, failed to submit all required documents and does not carry a Class A Contractors License and, therefore, was deemed non-responsive. Staff is recommending award of the bid to Perco Rock, Co.
