Harvey County awards 2025 noxious‑weed chemical bid to Nutrien Solutions
Summary
After reviewing three bidders, the county accepted Nutrien Solutions’ low bids for multiple herbicide items and authorized staff to finalize purchase; commissioners voted unanimously to award the contracts.
Rexhawn, the Harvey County Noxious Weed director, presented competitive bids for the county’s 2025 noxious‑weed chemicals on April 29. Three suppliers submitted bids; the department recommended awarding to Nutrien Solutions as the low bidder on the line items presented.
Rexhawn summarized itemized bids and totals for compounds such as 2,4‑D amine (requested 360 gallons), Tordon 22K and other products. Nutrien’s totals were described in the bid packet; commissioners and staff confirmed Nutrien had provided acceptable service previously.
Commissioner motioned to accept the recommendation and award the bid to Nutrien Solutions (total reported in the meeting: $17,256.60 for the Tordon/2,4‑D items listed in the motion packet) and to authorize county purchasing staff to finalize requisitions. A second was made and the board voted “aye”; the motion passed unanimously.
Why it matters: Noxious‑weed control is a recurring county operational expense. The county requested delivery windows and verified no separate shipping charges on most items; departments will direct requisitions to proceed under prosed contract terms.
What the board recorded: Award to Nutrien Solutions; staff directed to complete requisition and signature process. There were no recorded dissenting votes.
