McDowell County Seeks Bids for Demolition of Selected County Properties
McDowell County Commission is accepting sealed bids for property demolition until noon on April 1, 2026, with public opening at 1 p.m. the same day.

The McDowell County Commission has put out a formal invitation for contractors to submit sealed bids for demolition work on selected county-owned properties, with a deadline of noon on Wednesday, April 1, 2026.
Bid packets will be opened publicly at 1:00 p.m. the same day, giving prospective contractors a narrow two-week window to prepare and submit their proposals before the Welch-based commission reviews them.
The legal notice published by the Commission marks the county's formal move toward clearing the identified properties, though specific sites targeted for demolition were not disclosed in the notice itself. Contractors interested in the work will need to obtain bid packets directly from the McDowell County Commission in Welch to review the full scope and specifications before the April 1 cutoff.

The public opening of bids is standard procedure in government contracting, designed to ensure transparency in how public dollars are awarded. Any contractor, local or otherwise, is eligible to submit a sealed bid ahead of the noon deadline.
