Lucas County approves purchase of three Chevrolet Silverados and authorizes rebid of recycling-container purchase
Summary
The Board approved buying three Chevy Silverados for county use for roughly $193,000 total and granted permission to reject and readvertise bids for recycling containers with revised specifications.
The Lucas County Board of Commissioners voted April 15 to approve the purchase of three Chevrolet Silverado pickup trucks from Dave White Chevrolet at a total cost the county described as roughly $193,000, and simultaneously authorized county staff to reject bids for recycling containers and readvertise the procurement with new specifications.
Administrator Ford introduced items from the sanitary engineer and the Solid Waste Management District and said Nate Incrotte would present both items. Incrotte told commissioners the three Silverados would cost about $193,000 in total and that they are not hybrid vehicles. He also said bids for recycling containers would be rejected and re-advertised with updated specifications.
A motion to approve the vehicle purchase and the bid-rejection/readvertise action was made and the clerk called the roll; Commissioners Gerken, Lopez and Ciebecki voted yes. The board recorded no opposing votes during the roll call. County staff did not provide a vendor contract number or per-vehicle price during the meeting; the $193,000 figure was presented by staff as a total, described as approximate.
County staff listed no additional conditions or financing details on the record. Follow-up tasks assigned to county administration and the sanitary engineer include finalizing purchase paperwork with Dave White Chevrolet and reissuing the recycling-container solicitation with revised specifications.
