Skillman Project Manager Paul Todoroski addresses the Porter County Board of Commissioners at a special meeting on Tuesday. The Porter County Board of Commissioners held an efficient, uneventful special meeting Tuesday morning to open numerous bids for the new highway garage and renovations for the health department, coroner’s office, and veterans administration.
The highway garage project saw Porter County Auditor Karen Martin opening 33 bids in a slew of categories including general trades, masonry, roofing, painting, fire protection, plumbing, and electrical. Porter County Attorney Scott McClure hands a bid to Porter County Commission Laura Blaney, D-South, at a special Board of Commissioners meeting on Tuesday, June 25, 2024.
The Skillman Corporation, project manager on all the county’s capital improvements, will take the bids under advisement and prepare to offer its recommendations for awarding of bids at another special Board of Commissioners meeting at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, July 2. These were also taken up under advisement by Skillman and will be awarded at the board’s next regularly scheduled meeting at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, July 16.
