Suwannee County is planning to award a contract for the Construction of a Livestock Building. This project, located in Suwannee County, is currently under review by the County Attorney. The total contract price is set at $2,004,550.00. The work involves general construction activities as outlined in the bid drawings and specifications. Following the contract award, the contractor will have 14 days to return an executed copy, 21 days to provide a construction bond and project schedule, and 30 days after notice to proceed to substantially begin construction. The project is expected to take no more than 270 days from the notice to proceed.
