Board approves $135,933 bid for three building-inspector trucks
Summary
The board approved a bid from Corwin Motors to buy three trucks for building inspectors for $135,933 after staff presented two bids and recommended Corwin Motors as the low bidder.
The governing board approved staff’s recommendation to accept a bid from Corwin Motors to purchase three trucks for the building-inspection division at a total cost of $135,933.
A staff member seeking board approval told members the county received two bids during a two-week solicitation and that Corwin Motors submitted the successful low bid. “We received 2 bids, and we were out to bid for 2 weeks,” the staff member said. The presenter described the total as $135,933 and said the decision followed standard procurement practice.
A board member moved to approve the bid, saying, “I move that we approve the bid. Let's get those guys in new trucks.” The chair called for discussion and then a voice vote; “Aye” was recorded and the approval carried.
Staff did not provide a roll-call vote in the portion of the transcript provided. The staff presenter noted the procurement produced multiple bids but did not provide a detailed bid tabulation, delivery schedule, or vehicle specifications in the meeting record.
The board did not discuss a financing source in the meeting excerpt; staff did not state whether the purchase would be funded from the capital equipment budget, reserves, or another line item.
