Council reviews single bid from Dawson Thompson Oil to provide fuel services; monitoring equipment noted
Summary
Council heard a resolution to contract with Dawson Thompson Oil Company to provide fuel services at the Public Works Complex; staff said one proposal was received and that the vendor will supply tanks and monitoring equipment at stated initial cost in the presentation.
Huntington — The Huntington City Council considered Resolution 2025‑R‑05 to authorize a contract to provide fuel services for the Public Works Complex at 800 Virginia Avenue; the transcript records a departmental presentation but no final recorded vote.
Mark Bates, public works director, said the purchasing division issued a request for proposals and received one proposal from Dawson Thompson Oil Company of Huntington, West Virginia. He said the review committee determined the proposal met the city’s needs and that the vendor will provide required equipment and tanks at its expense. Bates said the proposal includes an initial cost of $56.84 for monitoring equipment (as stated in the transcript) and explained the system would use employee swipe cards to limit dispensing to authorized staff.
Bates said the city would move forward with a one‑year agreement that automatically renews for four additional years on the anniversary date unless canceled by either party before renewal. The transcript records the committee’s recommendation and the contract terms as presented; it does not include a recorded adoption vote.
