BACKGROUND
The Gaston County Board of Commissioners approved additional funding in the FY19-20 Budget to complete pavement repairs at various County facilities. Due to age and continued usage of these parking lots/drives, the pavement has deteriorated resulting in pavement failures that continue to worsen. Robinson & Sawyer, Inc. designed pavement repairs and prepared bidding documents for public bidding purposes. The project was publicly advertised on April 12, 2020 and the bid opening was April 30, 2020 with the following bid results received:
Tarpon Construction, Inc., Gastonia, NC $291,213.45
Quinn Sales, Inc., Gastonia, NC $312,385.84

J.T. Russell & Sons, Inc., Conover, NC $371,561.19
Blythe Brothers Asphalt Company, LLC, Charlotte, NC $454,906.49
Based on the bids received, this Board Action deems Tarpon Construction, Inc. as the contractor submitting the lowest responsive, responsible bid. Approval of this Board Action formally selects Tarpon Construction, Inc. to perform the repair work associated with the project, directs the County Attorney to draft all necessary contract documents, and authorizes the County Manager or her designee to execute said documents for an amount not to exceed $291,213.45.
