Discussion was held. <br />Board Direction: <br />Schedule a meeting with Central Washington University to discuss the closure and impacts <br />on the move in of new students and other University activities. <br />SEALED BID — FENCING: <br />Luke stated that recently staff put out a Small Works bid request for a fencing contract to fence <br />the frontage of Pat Kelleher's property where we worked with him to remove trees that were <br />within county right of way that caused a sight distance issue. It took about four to five months <br />with the homeowner to get the trees removed and had a survey done to show the property <br />boundary and county right of way. The bid request also included the parcels in the industrial <br />area at the airport where we are now stockpiling our rock material for the chip seal program. <br />The engineer's estimate for the projects were in the $30,000 to $40,000 range and the bid came <br />back at approximately $53,000 which is around 30% over the engineer's estimate. Luke reached <br />out to some of the area construction companies and found that statewide, particularly in the <br />northwest bids are coming in at 20% — 30% over on bids. Staff would still like to award the <br />project but it is troubling to see the bids so high. Discussion was held. <br />Board Direction: <br />No direction. <br />MOUNT DANIELS COMPLETION: <br />Luke stated that the Mt. Daniels Drive project was completed on Friday. Crews put two shots of <br />chip seal down and the plan is to let it set, sweep it and then one last shot of chip seal and then <br />apply the fog sealant. <br />Board Direction: <br />No direction. <br />XAez;4 <br />Mark Cook, Director <br />419 N.
