\nIN THE MATTER OF RECEIVING BIDS FOR THE 2016 JOINT TOWNSHIP CHIP SEAL PROJECT:<\/strong>
\nAdvertised in the West Bend News, a paper of general circulation within the County, as per Section 307.86 of the Ohio Revised Code, bids were received and opened for the 2016 Joint Township Chip Seal Project, to-wit; BIDDER: Ward Construction Company, 385 Oak Street, Leipsic OH 45856; BID AMOUNT: $273,718.30
\nThe Paulding County Engineer\u2019s estimate for the project is $347,456.03. The specifications will be studied with a determination to be made later.
\nMeeting Notes of Appointments:<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Judge Tiffany Beckman; Prosecutor Joe Burkard; and Sheriff Jason Landers – Judge Beckman lead the discussion regarding Courthouse security. Several options were discussed of ways to make the Courthouse a more safe environment. All in attendance agreed this is something that needs to be looked into. Each agreed to investigate some of the options and report back next week.
\n\u2022 Matt Miller – Mr. Miller farms the Eaton Farm north of US 24. He has been noticing increased vandalism on the tillable fields and the surrounding area, including the cemetery. The vandalism is in the form of rutting and tearing up the ground, making the tillable land less productive. The same activity in the cemetery makes it hard to mow and maintain. The Sheriff\u2019s deputies have been patrolling the area more frequently. Violators will be prosecuted.
\n\u2022 Chad Crosby, Engineer\u2019s Office – Mr. Crosby opened the bid for the 2016 Joint Township Chip Seal Project (see resolution above).
\n\u2022 Ben Moore, Stateline Precision Farms – Mr. Moore presented an aerial map of the Jacob Farm for the Commissioners\u2019 review. He noted the acreage will be planted to beans this growing season.
\n\u2022 Brian Shuherk, Solid Ground – Mr. Shuherk presented an estimate for reinforcing and raising the Veterans\u2019 Memorial on the Courthouse lawn. Various options were discussed regarding the type of material to use. Additional estimates will be sought. Mr. Shuherk informed the Commissioners he plans to begin phase 2 of the Courthouse landscaping project this week by taking out some bushes and grinding the stumps\/roots. He also noted some painting will be done this weekend, weather permitting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
