The Town of Laketown is seeking sealed bids from qualified vendors for a new electronic sign project, according to a November 13 notice. The project scope encompasses the purchase, installation, programming, and staff training required to maintain a fully operational digital sign system.
The proposed electronic sign is expected to be approximately 4 feet high by 8 feet wide and suitable for outdoor municipal use. The selected vendor will be responsible for providing all labor, materials, equipment, and programming necessary to complete the project. While electrical conduit has already been installed at the designated location for the connection, the bidder must coordinate with the Town regarding other electrical and site requirements. The project scope specifically excludes landscaping improvements such as decorative rock, sod, plants, or irrigation.
The vendor must also provide software and programming for the sign, including installation on the Town's designated computer and configuration to ensure proper communication. This includes providing all necessary licenses, passwords, and activation codes, as well as identifying any recurring subscription or communication fees. Furthermore, the successful bidder must provide on-site training for Town staff covering message creation, scheduling, uploading, and basic troubleshooting. The installation and staff training are scheduled to be completed by May 1, 2027.
Sealed bids must be received by the Laketown City Office or emailed to clerk@laketown.utah.gov by 2:00 PM on December 2, 2026. Bids will be opened during a Town Council Meeting on December 2, 2026, at 7:00 PM. Laketown reserves the right to reject any or all submissions and to select the vendor determined to be in the best interest of the Town.
