Waycross will soon begin planned improvements to three city parks after a construction bid was accepted by the Waycross City Commission at its bi-monthly meeting Tuesday, October 8.
Commissioners approved a resolution for the $3,437,918 contract with ICB Construction Group for upgrades to Bailey Street, Elizabeth Street and Garlington Parks. The bid was the lowest and best of two received for the work, Finance Director Greg Smith said.
Commissioners Sheinita Bennett, Katrena Felder, Diane Hopkins and Alvin Nelson were unanimous in accepting the bid despite it being more than $737,000 over budget.
