Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final April 18, 2017 <br />Attachments: Staff Report <br />Sample Agreement <br />Response to Ranger Protest <br />Public Works Director Rich Szpyrka recalled the meeting of March 22, 2016, <br />and provided background on the approval of a Small County Outreach Program <br />Grant from the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for the <br />resurfacing of County Road 512. He detailed the review of three bids for the <br />project, one of which failed to meet the minimum qualifications established for <br />the award of the project. He stated that Ranger Construction Industries of Fort <br />Pierce, Florida, submitted a letter of protest to the award of the contract for the <br />project, but has since withdrawn their protest. <br />Director Szpyrka explained the construction process, the equipment involved, <br />and the special expertise required for the Full Depth Reclamation Process. <br />Commissioner Zorc made comments about the numerous complaints that he <br />received involving Timothy Rose Contracting, Inc., and their lack of safety <br />awareness while working on a recent project. He expressed his concerns about <br />how safety compliance and supervision would be handled on a larger scale <br />project, and that based on the amount of complaints that have been received <br />from the public about safety issues along the construction sites involving that <br />particular contractor, he would be inclined to not be in support of the award. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Solari, seconded by Commissioner Adams, <br />to approve staffs recommendation. The motion carried by the following vote: <br />Aye: 4- Chairman Flescher, Vice Chairman O'Bryan, Commissioner Adams, and <br />Commissioner Solari <br />Nay: 1 - Commissioner Zorc <br />G Utilities Services <br />13.
