County staff reported the results of a Transportation Investment Act (TIA) bid opening and recommended awarding the contract to the low bidder, Scroggs Company. Tim Monroe presented the bid tabulation and described the work as Phase 2, which extends from the last paving joint through sections near the landfill and includes improvements on Satilla Church Road.

Tim Monroe said four bidders attended the 08/26/2025 bid opening and that Scroggs Company submitted the low bid at $3,438,614.11. Commissioners asked about the contractor's experience in the county; staff noted Scroggs performs regional paving work and references checked satisfactorily.

A motion was made to award the TIA Phase 2 contract to Scroggs Company at the recommended amount and the board voted to approve the award.

Why this matters: awarding a multi‑million dollar TIA contract commits the county to a defined contractor and schedule for significant roadwork funded through TIA revenues; staff estimated work could begin within about two months of award and completion will follow the contractor's schedule and procurement/inspection steps.
