The Taylorville Park Board will vote on a $12-million pool construction bid at their next regular meeting.  The park board convened a special meeting on Wednesday to open and read sealed bids for the project.

Despite initial interest from several contractors, only one ultimately submitted a bid.  Springfield-based O’Shea Builders’ bid amounts to $12,693,000.  Representatives from O’Shea attended the meeting to break down the costs.  Some components of the estimate have been finalized, while others are based on square footage. 

The project and its cost include both demolition and construction and come with a 10% bid security.

The park board’s next regular meeting is set for Tuesday, May 27.
