(KNZA)--Bids were opened at Tuesday's Brown County Commission meeting for the remodeling and construction of an addition to the Noxious Weed and Solid Waste building at the county landfill.

Three bids were received.

The apparent low bid was submitted by Bob Rahe Construction, of Hiawatha, in the amount of $178,991.

BB Brothers Contractor, of Hiawatha, submitted a bid for $206,326.

BHS Construction, of Manhattan, submitted a bid for $685,384.

A decision was tabled until next week's meeting to allow Landfill Director Don Pounds and Noxious Weed Director Richard Rodvelt to review the bids.

Pounds said the current building is in poor shape due a lack of maintenance in past years.

The 30 by 40 foot addition will house an office for the landfill director and noxious weed director.
