Bradford County Florida BOCC Commission Meeting 10/15/26

Bradford County Board of County Commissioners meeting, October 15, 2026. The Board approved SHIP housing-rehabilitation work and contracts with M&R Construction for files 2022-3 ($52,362), 2022-4 ($51,222), and 2022-5 ($37,525). M&R was the sole bidder on the projects after withdrawing and then rescinding its withdrawal; commissioners raised concerns that the bid sequence discouraged other bidders and could delay work. Staff said they would monitor the contractor’s schedule. The motions and contracts were approved, with at least one recorded vote against the awards/contracts.

The Board also approved an ordinance increasing the countywide maximum size for an individual neighborhood-commercial retail establishment from 5,000 to 10,000 square feet, and approved an amendment revising subdivision regulations. A resident raised concerns about a reported vehicle-salvage operation, zoning compliance, and possible effects on nearby wells; no specific action on that comment was recorded. Commissioners reviewed legislative appropriation requests, which staff said were the same priorities as the prior year with updated project scopes and amounts; no appropriation amounts or vote are captured in the transcript.
