            Randy McCauley, Road Department Administrator, presented bids for asphalt.  J&R Sand declined to bid, APAC bid $81.17 per ton and Klotz Sand bid $66.00 per ton.   Marty Long made the motion to accept the low bid from Klotz Sand in the amount of $66.00 per ton for asphalt cold mix.  Carl Higgs seconded the motion, and it passed unanimously.
