(KNZA)--The Brown County Commission voted Monday to reject the bids received for the remodeling and construction of an addition to the Noxious Weed and Solid Waste building at the county landfill.
Three bids were opened at last week's Commission meeting.
After reviewing the bids, Landfill Director Don Pounds told commissioners that he and Noxious Weed Director Richard Rodvelt would instead like to construct a new 30 by 40 foot building to the south of the existing building that would house offices and drop plans to remodel the existing building.
Pounds says he believes it would save the county money. He said the existing building would be utilized as a workshop.
The Commission voted to have Pounds prepare new bid specifications for the revamped project.
