LANCASTER : New Firm Selected to Build Firehouse
A new construction company has been selected to build a fire station in Lancaster because the firm originally chosen made an error in its bid.
The contract to build Fire Station 130 was originally awarded to McLaughlin Construction, whose bid of $708,946 was the lowest. But further analysis showed that the McLaughlin bid failed to include a $75,000 utility allowance.
On Tuesday, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to re-award the contract to S & J Construction of Rosamond for $750,000. The station is to be located at the southeast corner of 40th Street West and Newgrove Avenue.
