Pre-RFPSupplies & MaterialsDetected Jun 17, 2026

The Rockbridge agenda includes “Cold mix asphalt for wedging prior to sealcoating,” signaling that the town is planning to purchase cold mix for preparatory wedge work before a sealcoat program. This is a recurring materials need associated with road maintenance and preservation. No supplier, quantity, or price is listed, so the board may be reviewing options or authorizing purchase from one or more vendors.Asphalt suppliers and aggregates vendors can assist the town in selecting appropriate cold mix products, delivery schedules, and pricing structures. It may also be useful to discuss bundling this with other maintenance materials or offering technical guidance on mix selection for local conditions.

This purchase is likely time-sensitive, tied to the sealcoating schedule for town roads.

Contract Admin

The board agenda scheduled consideration of a one-year contract extension for bulk fuel purchase with SC Fuels. The item was still pending the October 26, 2026 vote, so the incumbent relationship and renewal timing were the key signals. A vendor watching this item would want to track whether the district keeps the existing fuel supply arrangement for another year.

The contract value was up to $56,664 for the November 2, 2026 through April 30, 2027 season. The purchase is scheduled for board consideration, not yet awarded, but it clearly identifies the likely supplier and the seasonal replenishment window.

Contract Award

The board agenda item listed DeSantis Solutions as the supplier for ice melt after BID 8862 results were received. The two-year seasonal contract ran from October 19, 2026 through April 16, 2027 and was capped at $53,625.60. This is a bid-result lead, so the buyer has likely already chosen the vendor and the useful sales signal is the winter materials replenishment cycle.
