Columbia County approved the purchase of replacement vehicles for the sheriff’s office, identified as Ford Explorers to be purchased from Wade Ford under the state contract.
A county staff member said the county worked with the sheriff’s office and the vendor and used the state contract to obtain quotes. Staff provided a spreadsheet with the quotes and listed a total amount on the consent packet. The item was moved on consent, seconded and approved.
Exact quantities and the total dollar amount were not clearly audible in the meeting transcript materials presented to commissioners; staff indicated the vehicles replace existing fleet units and that pricing came via the state contract process.
