The Webster County Fiscal Court took steps on Monday to finally be able to begin construction on the new Webster County Animal Shelter by sorting through bids for all but one of the items on the county’s to-do list.

The lone item not voted on was the construction of the interior of the building. Officials felt that the lone bid of $30,500 from Riverside Builders of Marion, KY was slightly more than they were wanting to pay.

Awarded bids:

•Providence Home Center: $19,228.48 for interior materials.

•Mason Company of Leesburg Ohio: $56,574.10 for dog pens and gates.

•31W in Henderson: $3,808 for insulation.

•Total Electric of Morganfield: $21,000 for electrical installation.

•E&M of Sebree: $15,706 for HVAC and radiant heated floor and $15,410 for plumbing and septic installation.

•Jeremy Brown of Slaughters: $28,500 for concrete work.

•Schriber Construction of Henderson: $64,980 for building labor and materials.
