Larson, (c) Kenneth D. Nelson, and (d) John B. Furman. Except as provided herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule 13D. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Schedule 13D.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Item 2 is replaced in its entirety with the following:

This Schedule 13D is being jointly filed by the following persons (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”): (a) Bradley E. Larson, an individual (“Larson”), and (b) Kenneth D. Nelson, an individual (“Nelson”). The Reporting Persons have entered into a Joint Filing Agreement dated as of July 28, 2008, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A, pursuant to which the Reporting Persons have agreed to file this Amendment jointly.

The business address of Messrs. Larson and Nelson is 4602 East Thomas Road, Phoenix, Arizona 85018.

Mr. Larson is the President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of Meadow Valley Corporation (the “Company”). Mr. Nelson is Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer and a director of the Company.

Each of the individual Reporting Persons is a U.S. citizen.

During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons have been (a) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (b) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities law, or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 is replaced in its entirety with the following:

The aggregate value of the transactions (the “Transactions”) contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of July 28, 2008, by and among the Company, Phoenix Parent Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Phoenix Merger Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), which are described in Item 4 below, is approximately $61.3 million.

In the rollover equity commitment letter, dated July 28, 2008 (the “Rollover Equity Commitment Letter”), Larson and Nelson committed to contribute to the owner of Parent, subject to certain conditions, all of their shares of the Company’s Common Stock in exchange for membership interests in the owner of Parent at the effective time of the merger. This summary of the Rollover Equity Commitment Letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Rollover Equity Commitment Letter, which is attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 3.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is replaced in its entirety with the following:

On July 28, 2008, the Company, Parent, and Merger Sub entered into the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, and all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock will be converted into the right to receive $11.25 per share in cash, without interest. The merger is conditioned on, among other things, the adoption of the Merger

Agreement by the stockholders of the Company and the absence of any injunction. The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement.

The purpose of the Transactions is to acquire all of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock other than those shares of Common Stock being contributed to the owner of Parent pursuant to the Rollover Equity Commitment Letter. If the Transactions are consummated, the Company’s Common Stock will be delisted from NASDAQ and will cease to be registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Company will be privately held.

On July 28, 2008, the Company announced the above described Transactions in a press release.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is replaced in its entirety with the following:

(a) and (b) The information contained on the cover pages to this Amendment is incorporated herein by reference. The percentages are based upon 5,178,654 shares outstanding as of July 28, 2008, as provided in the Merger Agreement.

By virtue of the relationship among the Reporting Persons described herein, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b) under the Exchange Act. As a member of a group, each Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own the Common Stock beneficially owned by the members of the group as a whole. As of July 28, 2008, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned in the aggregate 283,646 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Each Reporting Person expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares held by the other Reporting Person.

(d) Other than the Reporting Persons, no other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock referred to in this Item 5.

(e) Not applicable.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given in the Merger Agreement:

(a) At the Closing and effective as of the Effective Time, each of Mr. Larson and Mr. Nelson shall contribute to Phoenix Holdings Management LLC, to be renamed Meadow Valley Holdings LLC (the “Company”), all of the Shares owned by him immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether acquired through the exercise of Options or otherwise, and shall receive in exchange therefor Class A Preferred Units of the Company. The number of Shares obtained through the exercise of Options will equal the number of Shares under option to Mr. Larson and Mr. Nelson reduced by (i) any Shares used to pay the exercise price in a cashless exercise of Options and (ii) the number of Shares used to pay federal income tax with respect to the exercise of Options. The percentage of the Class A Preferred Units outstanding as of the Effective Time to be issued to each of Mr. Larson and Mr. Nelson as of the Effective Time shall be determined by dividing the value of the net Shares contributed by each of Mr. Larson and Mr. Nelson by the total equity commitment required to be contributed to the Company at Closing.
