The board will discuss the future of the Old Courthouse building using recent structural and roof truss reports plus a 2020 comprehensive assessment. Engineers describe significant roof structural deficiencies, higher upcoming snow loads, and costly repair options, while contractors have estimated demolition and rebuild costs ranging from hundreds of thousands to several million dollars. This is a major strategic facilities decision where the county must choose between demolition, short‑term stabilization, or full modernization, opening doors for architecture, engineering, construction, and cost‑planning firms.
Pre-RFP
$8,000,000Jul 14, 2026The Highway Department is securing voluntary right‑of‑way easements from multiple owners for replacement of bridge 42‑120‑158 on County Road 125, 1.75 miles south of Highway 18, with a three‑barrel 12' x 8' concrete box. The commission agenda also includes a $2,000,000 cash transfer from the General Fund to the Highway Fund, and recent claims show over $1.4 million in road and bridge project spending. This indicates an active, multi‑year capital program around this structure and related road work, creating opportunities for contractors, engineers, and materials suppliers for current and follow‑on phases.
Budget Planning
$1,419,048Jul 14, 2026The City is advancing Tax Increment District #13 for a 56-unit multifamily project on Lot 21, Johnson’s Addition, with an estimated $3.2 million development and $1,105,832 in eligible TIF infrastructure costs. The privately initiated TIF will fund grading, utilities, stormwater work, and private parking, supporting affordable housing near Alumni and Elm Streets. With the project plan deemed financially feasible and Council adoption pending, housing developers, civil contractors, and multifamily service providers have a live opportunity tied to grant-style TIF funding.
Grant Funding
$1,105,832Jul 13, 2026Council approved an agreement with Geotek Engineering for $37,325 in materials testing and observation, and with Banner Associates for $34,380 in staking services for the new Light & Power Building at 112 Shriner Street. These awards confirm key pre-construction professional services vendors. Engineering, surveying, and construction firms should track this capital project for upcoming bid packages for structural work, building systems, and site improvements.
Contract Award
$716,705Jul 20, 2026The FY2027 proposal increases the "Other Repair & Maintenance" line to cover higher costs for software licenses, subscriptions, and maintenance agreements. The memo notes the need to buy nine Microsoft Office licenses and higher fees for a new cloud-based print and mobile printing solution. IT and SaaS vendors can offer alternative licensing models, print management platforms, or consolidation strategies as the library reviews options and renewals for 2027.
Pre-RFP
$23,000Jul 15, 2026The City awarded a $137,465.60 bid to Graybar Electric for electrical materials (wire, conduit, panels, fixtures, etc.) for the new Light and Power building, with city crews performing installation. Materials are part of a larger ~$800,000 facility project, with remaining costs to be budgeted in 2027. This confirms Graybar as a key supplier and indicates ongoing 2026–2027 spend on electrical gear and potential future packages for additional systems or expansions.
Contract Award
$137,466Jul 6, 2026The Buildings and Grounds Superintendent outlined a major equipment purchase for the new Justice Center, including a skid steer attachment, riding mower, sidewalk snow machine, and two large floor scrubbers plus assorted facility gear. These items are needed to support ongoing operations like snow removal, cleaning, and general maintenance. The board is asked to approve the purchase scope; specific vendors are not yet selected, creating a near-term opportunity for equipment suppliers and service providers.
Pre-RFP
$7,364Jul 14, 2026Council approved buying a Stryker Powerload and Stryker Power Pro 2 stretcher for a new ambulance for $66,877.65 from Stryker Sales LLC. This confirms Stryker as the chosen EMS equipment vendor and indicates ongoing ambulance fleet investment. EMS and medical equipment providers can pursue future ambulance fit-outs, maintenance agreements, accessories, and training services tied to this technology.
Contract Award
$66,878Jul 20, 2026The Vermillion City Council is considering administration’s recommendation to award the electrical materials and supplies bid for the new Light & Power building (Bid No. 1) to Graybar Electric of Sioux Falls. This package covers wires, conduits, fittings, light fixtures, panels, and related materials that city crews will use to perform the electrical work, separate from the $4630000 building construction contract with Van Buskirk Construction. Bids were opened June 17, 2026, and four vendors responded; the apparent low bid from Border States was rejected for noncompliance, making Graybar’s $137,465.60 bid the recommended award. The Light & Power Department has budgeted funding in 2026 and will budget remaining electrical costs in 2027, signaling a multi-year facilities and electrical infrastructure effort. For vendors, this confirms Graybar as the materials incumbent on this project and highlights an ongoing capital build-out where ancillary services, additional materials, or future renovations may be needed.
Contract Award
$137,466Jun 23, 2026Council approved buying a Hustler Super Z 72" RD 35 HP mower for $16,461.45 from Vermillion Ace Hardware for Parks and Recreation. This locks in the mower and local dealer for this cycle. Turf and grounds equipment vendors can track this as a clue to the current brand and dealer, and look at attachments, maintenance, or fleet replacement planning for other park and cemetery equipment.
