Summary

The court approved purchase of a 2025 Can-Am ATV for cemetery maintenance for up to $16,706.95 (including $1,500 accessory allowance).

Wichita County Commissioners on April 29 approved the purchase of a 2025 Can-Am all-terrain vehicle for cemetery maintenance and related tasks, authorizing up to $16,706.95 including an additional $1,500 allowance for accessories such as a windshield and mounting hardware.

The vehicle will be used to carry sprayers, tools and crews across the county cemetery’s large property, staff said. Leon and cemetery personnel solicited quotes and recommended the low bid from Herbisley Can-Am. Commissioner Beauchamp moved to approve the Herbisley Powersports quote and add $1,500 for accessories; Commissioner Mueller seconded. The motion passed on a voice vote, 5-0.

Staff noted aftermarket accessories will be added after purchase and that the vehicle will also be available for other county uses as needed. The county will pay from department 221 with the auditor determining final line items.
