Project Overview

Morrow County is requesting bids from qualified and experienced low-voltage

contractors for new fiber optic and data cabling work at the Morrow County Fairgrounds,

located in Heppner, Oregon.

Attached to this Request for Bid is a site diagram identifying the required fiber routes,

network cabinet locations, future camera cable drops, and the antenna mast installation

point.

This project is grant funded. The grant expires on April 1, 2026, and all installation work

must be fully completed on or before this date. Please note that internal administrative

processes—including review, approval, and contract execution—must be completed

prior to award, which further constrains the construction schedule.

Even if your firm anticipates difficulty meeting the stated completion deadline, Morrow

County still encourages submission of a bid. Additional funding may become available,

or the grant timeline may be extended. If your firm is unable to meet the April 1, 2026

deadline, this must be clearly stated in your bid response.

Distribution Frame (MDF) located in the Fair Pavilion.

• Cabinets shall include appropriate cable management and space for patch

panels. Install Lockable wall-mountednetwork cabinets at each designated

location.

3. Ethernet Cabling for Future Cameras (Green Markers)

• Install Cat6 (or better) Ethernet cabling from each green marker location back to

the respective building’s network cabinet.

• These are cable-only runs for future camera installations; no devices are to be

installed at this time.

• All Ethernet drops must be labeled, terminated, and tested.

4. Antenna Mast Installation (Blue)

• Install a rooftop antenna mast on the Fair Pavilion as indicated on the diagram.

applicable building codes, and industry best practices.

• Bids must include all labor, materials, testing, permits, and incidentals necessary

The County anticipates that the Inland Development fiber transport installation may

be completed prior to or independent of the internal low-voltage fiber and data

part of this project. Connectivity to County servers will be required during a future

phase when cameras are installed.

requirements. Proof of compliance may be requested at any time during the project.

Liability, in the amounts and form specified in the County’s insurance requirements. All

liability policies must name Morrow County, its officers, employees, and agents as

Additional Insureds, and must list Morrow County as the Certificate Holder. Proof of
