Discuss, consider, and take appropriate action on formally closing out and not awarding IFB #24IFB64 CR 200 Milling and Overlay, due to project timeline and constraints posed by the current fiscal year.

Williamson County solicited and received five (5) sealed responses under 24IFB64 CR 200 Milling and Overlay but on Friday, August 30, 2024, the Purchasing Department received an email notice from the Road and Bridge County Engineer requesting the Commissioners Court formally close this solicitation without award. It has been determined that the work cannot be completed within the required timeframe.  Given these circumstances, it would not be in the County's best interest to proceed with awarding the contract at this time. This decision was made considering the practical limitations of the project schedule, rather than any reflection on the qualifications or performance history of the lowest bidder, Texas Materials Group, Inc.  The point of contact is Jenifer Favreau.
