(9-5) County Manager - Raging Ridge Road Extension and Bridge Jonathan Marshall, Deputy County Manager, reported the North Carolina Department of Transportation ( NCDOT) received bids for the Raging Ridge Road extension and bridge construction. He advised a total of seven bids were received, with Country Boy Landscaping coming in as the apparent low bidder. He stated the low bid is more than the total budget for the project. In addition, he advised, NCDOT requires 15 percent of the project cost to be budgeted for their work including inspection, administration, testing and overhead. Mr. Marshall advised the unfunded need is $381,187.00, and further stated there is approximately $450,000.00 left from the financing of Hickory Ridge Middle and High School that can be used for this purpose. The NCDOT will only bill expenses up to the 15 percent for this project, so any savings will remain with the County. A discussion ensued. During discussion, Mr. Marshall advised the Town of Harrisburg is also involved in this project. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Shue, seconded by Commissioner Mynatt and unanimously carried, the Board authorized the remaining Hickory Ridge funds up to $381,187.00 to be applied to the Raging Ridge Road Extension and Bridge project.
