# Public Works Meeting 10/27/2026

Bonneville County’s weekly Public Works meeting on October 27, 2026, included approval of two project cost items. Commissioners approved Supplemental No. 2 for Civil Science’s First Street Dam and 45th widening design work, for approximately $53,991, covering revisions for the change from three to five lanes, mailbox and railroad coordination, and additional right-of-way work. They also approved Change Order No. 6 for the 49th North Lighting project, adding a driveway for $6,125.13. Staff said the First Street project was expected to go out to bid around November 10 or 12. A solid-waste contract was reportedly expected to be signed the next day, although the transcript does not identify the contractor or contract value.

The discussion covered project delivery and maintenance issues, including drainage and soil problems in roadside swales, sidewalk repairs, and suggestions to account for mailbox ADA access and difficult sidewalk-edge areas in future designs. Staff said work on a sidewalk project would likely be delayed until spring, with a change order being sent to HK to retain the current price. The proposed Fifth West project with Idaho Falls lacked engineered drawings, and its schedule and payment details remained unresolved; the county also had no update on the H2 project’s environmental review. The transcript includes an earlier parcel-related action, but the item and vote details are too garbled to characterize reliably.
