After further discussion, Mr. Pope inquired if what the Spainhours wanted to say was that it
was a simple mistake, not intentional on their part and that they want the commissioners to let them
out of their bid.
Doug Madison asked questions about the history of the Spainhour Company. Mr. Kenneth Spainhour
said he began in 1959. He has 25 to 30 employees.
Chairman Sloan closed the Public Hearing.

MOTION from Commissioner Mitchell stating that after reviewing the matter, the board believed
it to be an unintentional omission of a substantial quantity of work made in the compilation of the
Spainhour bid, and it would be in the best interest of the county to withdraw the award of the bid.
In discussing the motion, Chairman Sloan added that based on what the board understands the law
says, the board is obligated to withdraw its bid. He further added that he thought the comment
needed to be made that the Spainhour bid was shoddy workmanship and should not have occurred.
