Bluffton council learned on Monday that Beaverdam Contracting is the apparent low bidder in the North Dixie Highway water-sewer-interceptor project. Jamie Mehaffie, village administrator, told council that of the nine firms bidding, the Beaverdam company's bid was about 14 percent below the engineer's estimate.
The engineer's estimate is $958,776. Beaverdam Contracting's bid was $822,073. Mehaffie said that he anticipates action by council at its next meeting.
