Commissioners approve purchase of courthouse vehicle using ARP funds and authorize surplus of an older county vehicle
Summary
The Cannon County Board approved buying a replacement vehicle for courthouse use using ARP funds (cap $20,000) and authorized surplus of an existing courthouse vehicle; commissioners noted an ARP balance of about $50,500.
The Cannon County Board of Commissioners approved purchasing a replacement vehicle for courthouse use with American Rescue Plan (ARP) funds and authorized surplusing an existing courthouse vehicle.
The board set an authorization cap of up to $20,000 for the purchase and approved declaring the current courthouse vehicle surplus. County officials stated the vehicle will be shared with other offices, including the land‑use office, when needed.
Commissioner Nathan Sanders asked for clarification on funding; a board member reported an ARP balance of about $50,500. “I would sure like to approve the purchase of a vehicle for the courthouse,” the Chair said, adding the vehicle would serve multiple departments. The motion to authorize purchase up to $20,000 passed on a roll call with Commissioners Nathan Sanders, Karen Ashford, Chris Singleton, Curtis George, Eddie Mears, Randy Gannon and Tony Burnett recorded as voting yes.
Separately, the board approved a motion to surplus the existing courthouse vehicle; that motion likewise passed on roll call with the same recorded votes. A county staff member named Angela was thanked in the meeting, with the Chair noting she “sure does appreciate the vehicle.”
The transcript does not include vendor details, vehicle specifications, procurement method, or a timetable for purchase.
