TUPELO POLICE DEPARTMENT – ELECTRIC GATE & ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS
BID NO. 2021-039PD
Dear Mr. Bonds:
I am pleased to submit to you, along with the Mayor and City Council, our conclusions and recommendations regarding
the award of the construction contract for the referenced project. Bids were opened at Tupelo City Hall on Tuesday,
January 18, 2022 at 10:00 AM local time.
This project includes a new custom electric gate at the back parking lot location at the Tupelo Police Department. In
addition, the project includes site work, pedestrian related improvements, access control improvements, electrical
improvements, etc. as required to facilitate the overall project improvements that are preferred by the City. One bid
was received for this project from M&N Construction for the total amount of $92,492.00.
Prior to the bid, we provided an estimated price range of $100,000 - $110,000 for the proposed improvements. Thus,
the bid was approximately 10% lower than the project estimate. Thus, it is our recommendation that the City award
this contract in the amount of $92,492.00 to M&N Construction, LLC and authorize the Mayor to execute said contract
for the referenced project.
We appreciate the opportunity to be of service to you and to be involved with this project. Please let us know should
have any questions or require additional information.
Sincerely,

3. Review/approve an option contract submitted by ShortCo, LLC.
Upon a motion by Cheryl Rainey and a second by Shane Homan, the Agency voted
unanimously to approve the contract submitted by ShortCo, LLC. Exhibit “C”
4. Review/reject counter offer made by Maloney Development concerning the
purchase of Fairpark Lot 8B.
City Attorney Ben Logan advised the Board that Maloney Development had submitted a
counteroffer concerning their potential purchase of Fairpark Lot 8B. In exchange for the
purchase of the property, it is the desire of Maloney Development that they have one (1)
year from the date of closing to commence construction on the lot. At the conclusion of
that one (1) year, TRA would then have one (1) year to repurchase the property at a price
equal to the selling price plus “5% per year.” Upon a motion by Shane Homan and
seconded by Cheryl Rainey, the Agency voted unanimously to reject the Maloney
Development counteroffer.
Upon a motion by Shane Homan and seconded by Cheryl Rainey, the Agency resolved
unanimously that it would not submit a counteroffer to Maloney Development
concerning Lot 8B, TRA would retain ownership of Lot 8B and TRA would release
Maloney Development from its obligation to purchase the lot.
Being no further business before the Agency, Chair Reed Hillen moved to adjourn the meeting.
A second was made by Cheryl Rainey and approved unanimously.
