Bidding Controversy Delays Geneseo Street Project
In Geneseo Illinois the Board of Local Improvements set aside the award for King Street paving after uncovering alleged pay-to-bid schemes. The McCarthy Improvement Co. of Davenport faced pressure as Patrick Hamano admitted receiving money to abstain from bidding. A new award and relet are anticipated as officials seek a fair contract.
