COFFEE COUNTY, Ala. (WDNews) — Bids for Coffee County’s planned animal shelter are due at 10 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 22, according to the county’s current bid notice.
According to the bid documents, the Coffee County Commission will publicly open and read bids at the Jimmy Holley Administration Building, 1065 E. McKinnon St. in New Brockton.
The shelter is planned for 234 County Road 279 in Elba. The work includes the building, concrete, plumbing, electrical systems and kennels.
The county will manage construction and handle some work itself, including site preparation, gravel parking, heating and cooling, ventilation and the septic system. Those costs are outside the contractor bids.
Under the bid terms, the commission may award separate parts or one combined contract. Awards would go to the lowest bidder who meets the requirements and is qualified to do the work. The county may reject any or all bids.
The bid package says the project is expected to exceed $100,000. It does not list a total budget, funding source or shelter opening date.
The package was issued Sept. 8 and required a pre-bid meeting Sept. 22.
Residents can review the plans and bid documents for project No. 2027-02 on Coffee County’s bids page.
