Commission Rejects Dean Paving Bid for Alton Orange Road
The highway commission disallowed the Dean Engineering and Contracting bid for the Alton to Orange City road paving, saying the board of supervisors held a private letting. A new public letting is set for April 15, with Jensen Paving as a benchmark despite a higher bid in winter. The board also seeks bids for a two mile Hull to Perkins road project.
